AzartiaPoker, a new poker room hand Cirsa and PartyGaming

A new poker room has reached the Spanish and Latin American market, Azartia Poker , and say, ok, well Simon, but why this should be a novelty?

For two reasons, first because it is an initiative supported by two monsters of the industry, CIRSA and PartyGaming . Let us first with the second.

Azartia has managed the unthinkable until very recently, to get your poker room is the first official Party Poker skin after absorption of a few years ago by the same parent. This means that their customers will share network, tables, tournaments and software with one of the largest poker rooms in the world.

Furthermore, Azartia has reached an agreement with the leading company in Spain and Latin America in the offline gaming industry, Cirsa Gaming Corp., owner including over 24 casinos across the world (in Spain, Valencia, Gandia, Malaga and La Toja). In collaboration with CIRSA, the initiative is born Equipment Azartia , where players can change their points of dispute player in exchange for face poker tournaments.

The second reason that the launch of Azartia Poker we are interested is because they have brought about a petition of thousands of readers of Poker Network .. ¡¡¡ Book have become the teacher’s manuals Carreno !!!

I have in my hands one of the copies and the truth is that the result is excellent. Tomorrow I will try to do a review for Poker Network, but for all who have enjoyed reading the manuals Carreno is enjoyed to see that finally a company has recognized the tremendous work of the teacher.

In short, a new poker room that can speak with the support of the two giants behind it. From Poker Network will have put him above the eye to see that it behaves .

Hands Sox Showdown VI and finally, on the river Game no place for Raul Mestre

As we have seen, look for a check-raise on the turn often with these hands. Check-Raise When a fault, we reached the river with a smaller boat and a priori easier to play. However, decisions in this situation are far from automatic. First, when our opponents do Check Behind in turn, will have a hand the same type as ours often.

Although we have seen that these hands to bet on the turn is better against most opponents, many competitors do not and try to bring the hand cheaply Showdown (must be said that his reasoning is not unreasonable, but as in many other aspects of poker, the superficial analysis does not always make us play the right way). Therefore, on the river, we face a range with hands similar to ours, for projects to bluff the river and maybe some strange or hand Slowplay been linked in the river.

When we have one of the strongest hands in our hands half range at this point, betting is correct. The vast majority of us pay Showdown hands, and expect to win often enough. If we are facing a rise in this situation we have to evaluate the rival and the river card, but understand that if this has not helped its sequence has no meaning and we can consider paying if we know that is able to bluff the river with a rise (there are players who do not do this almost never against those who abandon automatic).

However, looking at the situation with weaker hands in this range, we have much to gain by betting the river (just might win some betting against maniacs who were full up so often to pay for their raise on the river were profitable, and I know players like that). However, analyzing the range of hands your opponent, look for a check-raise makes sense.

We have said that his rank was composed of average Showdown hands and weak hands with outs on the turn they were probably at the river bluff. There may be some extra hand, and may have linked something in some rivers, but generally we are facing a range with weak hands. Check if your rival makes Behind Showdown with one hand better than ours we have probably made money, because our bet would pay for the river after this sequence. However, if you decide to do a “thin” Value Bet, is very unlikely that we pay the check-raise on the river with Mid Pair or a similar hand. If it does, of course, we will put a note and take account for a check-raise on the river somewhat less frequently with its hands (not reduce my frequency of Check-Raise the lantern to zero or even against an opponent as well ), but for a check-raise with strong hands a lot more (strong means Top Pairs and the like, typically earn more hands than simply gambling).

There are some rivers in which we consider to bet or check-fold, even with these hands. You can bet the more scary rivers, hands Showdown weaker. If, for example, there is 75s and J742A table, bet on the river is a good idea because we can shoot a 7 boat. Make Check-Fold is acceptable when the river is a scary card that does not fit too much against our rank, our rival is competent and basically has few hands after the river card, do not or Showdown Value or a strong hand.

For example, we have 98 and the flop is Qc8d6s. And our opponents bet pays. The turn is a 5. We Check, Check and make our opponents Behind. The river is a 4, leaving the Q8654 board. At this point in the hand is very difficult for us to represent anything. If our opponent is a mediocre player and aggressive, we should try to check-raise even though our hand does not make sense. Just think of your hand, rarely have the 7 and rarely paid. However, against a good player or against a passive player, we should leave the hand. The good player does not have lights in their range just after this river. The short-handed medium (similar to ours but with better Kicker) not to bet. The only hand is worse than its rank is A6 or 33, but Beth rank if enough sevens and two pair that probably pay our check-raise. The passive player will bet not without the 7 since it will have a Showdown hand the vast majority of the time and will be happy to teach in an economic power.

However, what we mean is that you do not do check-raise the river in each hand in hand that you have a mean of Showdown. Analyze (especially if the opponent is responsible) if you bet a lot of weak hands behind your check due to the impact of the cards on the turn and / or river, or whether it is worth turning your average hand Showdown on a bluff on the river as the river card is very suitable for this and will often be little bluff. However, we talked a lot about this subject since the hands Showdown average benefit especially for a check-raise on the river.

In this article we give enough specific advice. We are at the PhD level, and it must be more than able to evaluate what we read and have some flexible in its implementation. We know that is impossible to cover every situation in a totally exhaustive. Used common sense and the advice we have given throughout this article to understand more fully what factors must be considered when faced with complex decisions such .

Reg wars by Spainfull

The title reflects one of the situations we can often find us at our tables. The translation of it would be something like “regular wars,” and refers to the battles and skirmishes in which they engage players Matching every day at the same tables. In this article I will try to explain why I think they are negative (up to certain levels) and the reasons for which should be avoided.

A regular, in broad strokes, a player who makes a greater or lesser number of hands at a level in one room. Normally, if we play at their tables, we have thousands of hands played with him ( or at least could get through one page dedicated to archiving the hands of that room). This means that both our hud as yours, will have sufficient data for most of the game statistics to identify each one. And also that the tracker contain many hands that have reached the showdown where can be studied more closely reflect issues not statistics.

A priori one might think that with all these data available, more profitable deal with these players than others who just have no information. In any case I will discuss later this is true, but in general, if you play regularly and data are not a player, it will be much worse because we do have the data (unless that has changed room or has recently fallen from levels). Loose players are usually those who are easier to take the money that normally play with us.

An important skill (and little discussed) in poker is to rapidly identify the rivals without data. If they look good to avoid them and if they look bad, to get their money before the rest of regulars; money because these do not usually last long, being (unfortunately in some cases) make the most important outcome for our monthly BB/100 . Normally, little has too reliable statistical values of these fishes besides VPIP , PFR and perhaps AF . We must therefore learn to read them in the least possible hands to beat them and see if there is to be aggressive or passive, if you can bluff or is it better to play by value. All this without going crazy and being attentive to countermeasures that may start the rest of the table common to take them with pasta instead of us.

Returning to the original topic, the main reason to avoid wars is usual that has a lot more EV avoid the good players and focus on the bad. The problem with many is that they have an ego too large, think they have to win each and every one of the hand and, to me, “pimping me or my father.” We need to move all this and be smart, emotional control is very important in a poker player. Start a private war against a player who has the time and ability to study our game to perfection, finding our weaknesses and exploit them, knowing where we live and click wheels of our car, not much sense if you can avoid.

It usually comment on the forums often the ideal values of percentages of 3beta 4Bet, hands do them, rival data that are optimal for these ranges and more. To be reliable, is essential to have a lot of hands of rivals, so we can infer that are common. But I have not seen any comment on that, if for example we face a rival to the best level, perhaps it is best not to get in screwed that will not benefit either.

Eye, I’m not saying let alone have to cower and not play aggressively with them. Of course the opposite is true, we should not have any fear to respond to their aggression. You must study your game, learn from them, tempt them a bit and, if a regular who do not adapt, it fuel to rubber monkey. Are going to play as many hands against these opponents that much of the benefits should leave these players. What I want to emphasize with this article, is that it is often better to go unnoticed, flying low to avoid enemy radar, do not piss anyone (although mole), and so much easier to play against weaker rivals without having to be so attentive to crossfire, inherited from old conflicts.

However, one qualification: all the above depends greatly on the level and the room you play, but the proportion of regular / fishes that is in our tables that will establish the importance of fighting against other common (if there are many bad players less need to fight with the usual). It should be noted that different types of normal, as the hands that play a month, the number of tables to play simultaneously and, above all, what good players they are and their adaptability.

One last interesting note, an entry Genciencia I read the other day indicated that language and intelligence are the result of human evolution for lying and detect such lies. The same goes for in poker, there is constant evolution in which adaptation is a triumph of higher intelligence .

Erik Cajelais event takes 2 of the WSOPE

Gradually ending events of the World Series of Poker Europe that are taking place in London. This time has ended Event # 2 Pot Limit Hold’em / Pot Limit Omaha 2500 £ 150 £ , which began Monday and lasted three days.

The player Erik Cajelais (Canada) have imposed on their rivals and gain a precious bracelet this edition of the WSOPE and a prize of £ 104,677 . Although everyone thought would be the famous professional Men Nguyen who would win, but this was the Canadian player as executioner.

Erik Cajelais won second WSOP bracelet of these

Although Cajelais started the final table as the last in chips with a very remarkable difference, with little 81,000 chips , on the tournament leader, Mats Gavatin , and their 448,000 chips . However, the Canadian who had been leading for the first day, could achieve a great comeback, which eliminated players like Men Nguyen ‘The Master’, Richard Gryko or Robin Keston .

So in the face to face clashed Erik and Gavatin , which despite having started the day as chip leader was well below the Canadian, who had been vergudo of other players. And though at first All-in Gavatin got bent, the second was not so lucky and his hand 10 10 9 8 failed to win the hand of his rival Q J 9 7 , with the following table: A Q Q A J .

So Gavatin finished second taking £ 64,705 , while the owner of the second bracelet WSOPE 2009 was £ 104,677 . Congratulations to the Canadian player, who although was not too famous, since it is more secure now followed by the media .

Gus Hansen, more than $ 6 million down

You already discussed not long ago about the hard times being suffered by the professional Full Tilt Poker , Gus Hansen ‘The Great Dane’.

However, things have not improved one iota for the Danish player, and continues to decline sharply in what may end up being the worst year of his life as a poker player. And this is because it already has reached the appalling figure of over $ 6 million for losses, which will be alarming for the player to Full Tilt Poker .

Recently Gus Hansen should not be smiling too

Although earlier this year forecast the player had to be totally different, and that until March was with 3.21 million dollars top, since April the player has returned to a positive figure, and has fallen to the above figure. No doubt his rivals in the room seems to give no respite, and the player not to lose boats, like some of almost $ 700,000 against it is without doubt the player of the moment, Tom Dwan ‘durrrr’.

Even so, remain little more than three months to finish the year and Danish player could get airborne and recover losses by January next year. However,

Gus Hansen must be willing to pass quickly the rest of 2009 remains, to leave behind this fateful year certainly bad luck is giving .
