Choosing the correct river bet size

Despite spending a decent amount of time studying, getting in shape, and finding my way into a tranquil mindset, the 2015 $10,000 buy-in WSOP Main Event did not go well for me. I felt like I played my best but the cards simply did not cooperate at all. However, I did get off to a nice start.

Visiting Baha Mar before PartyPoker’s Caribbean Poker Party – Part 2

In November, PartyPoker is having a major tournament series featuring two (yes, 2!) $10,000,000 guaranteed events called the Caribbean Poker Party at Baha Mar, a new luxury resort in the Bahamas and asked if I would go there to make a video blog showing off the resort. Seeing how Amie and I have not had a non-poker vacation away together in two years, we were celebrating our three-year anniversary, and are expecting our second son in December, how could I say no?

This video features lots of time at the beach, amazing dinners, and maybe even a little blackjack action.

Baha Mar is amazing. Every detail is accounted for. The beach is pristine, the rooms and the venue are immaculate, and the food is amazing. If you are looking for a tournament to play in the near future, you will not want to miss PartyPokerLive’s Caribbean Poker Party. Click here for details on the series. I will see you there!

Playing a $10,000 Final Table

Last year, I had the pleasure of making the final table of the $10,000 buy-in event that PartyPoker put on in Punta Cana. It was a lot of fun. My opponents (who were all excellent players) put me in tons of difficult river spots. I enjoyed it! I will be sure to review many of these hands in my podcast WeeklyPokerHand over the next few months.

Check out these two episodes of Poker Night and let me know what you think.
