Hello everyone,
I feel bad for not making a post for a while. I have been
busy travelling signing petitions for online poker.
Two weeks ago I spend a long weekend in Salzburg, Austria. I
absolutely loved that city!!! The weather was beautiful to begin with. There
are a few things to see in terms of sightseeing but it is not a very touristy
city. I like visiting interesting and historical places but for a weekend
adventure I don’t want to spend 3 days walking all over the city and rush “to
visit everything”. Salzburg has the perfect balance on that. I did a little a
bit of shopping too and tried a few German/Austrian beers. I need to start
looking for pubs in the UK that serve these beers now. :D
Back to poker now…the only thing that I have been focused on
was the new legislation regarding the players from UK. At first, Pokestars said
that from 1st of Oct we would have to play in the .co.uk client
however, we will be able to play with all the players’ pool from the .com
network. So far, doesn't seem to be any problem. Along with that Gambling Commision said that in order to “protect” the players the auto-rebuy and
auto-reload will be removed. So, if we want to reload in a cash game, we would
have to do this manually. There was a lot of dispute over this auto-reload
feature and due to that they announced that they will make their final decision
in a month’s time (1st of Nov). I read on 2+2 that GC has agreed not
to force the poker sites to remove the auto-reload feature. However, there’s not
an official announcement yet, but things seems to go the “right” way. We will find out pretty soon.
I have picked up some funny hands from my recent sessions:
It was nice to have him shoving the river when I have the
nutzz :D
He made a mistake betting 2/3 off my stack and he ccouldn't fold
given the pot odds. But I don't think I EVER have worse than A2 there…
I was really bragging about this hand managing to get max
value. :D
Best of luck at the tables. Promise my next post to be sooner!
