Texas Holdem Live Game

2009-04-22T12:06:00.005-05:00

My husband (Kevin) and neighbor (Rich) went to a home game tournament of Texas Holdem, where there was cash to be made. As most of you know, we play here at my home tournament style but for a trophy not cash with the neighbors. In the beginning, they never really played poker so didn't have any of the skills or knowledge as to how to win. It was a call fest a first. Over the time that we have

2009-04-09T21:35:00.005-05:00

How do you know who the fish is at the poker table is? First of, for those of you that may not know what a FISH is... it is basically someone who is new to the game (novice player) that is still learning the ropes and still working on the skills of the game.

Family Time with Poker!

2009-04-06T14:34:00.002-05:00

Playing Texas Holdem poker with the kids this last weekend. I find it hard to believe, but my kids kicked my butt. I was second out. Five of us were playing and here I am, the one that plays poker all the time, gone out second. Kevin however, did kick the kids butts. I wish I could say that Kevin took me down... but I can't :(The thing about playing with the kids is that they will call you

On the 6th night, the winner is
