With US presidential elections to be held later this year, of great interest to poker players is the stance of each presidential candidate with regards to the legalization of online poker. As Democrat Barack Obama vies for his re-election, Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, Ron Paul and Rick Santorum are in the race for the Republican [...]
I have to admit, most of my articles give advice that is hard to understand. When you don’t understand preliminary concepts to the ideas of talking about, it’s almost impossible to truly understand anything I or high stakes players talk about.

From now on every Friday I will be taking some of the strategy discussion from the forums, sum up some of the cool content in case you missed it, and make my own comments on the issues discussed. The high stakes forum was pretty quiet this week, except for one hand posted by pocketfours where [...]
