How do you know when you're ready to play professional texas holdem?
October 8th, 2008
I've been playing sit and gos on fulltilt for 6 months now and i've charted my winnings. I've placed in the money 18 out of 24 times. For professional poker players out there. How did you know when you were ready for the big times. Please note that money is not an issue for me. Thanks!
6 months and you have played in 24 sit and gos? If you want to be a "professional" you are going to have to log ALOT more hours… Move up to playing in some of the big scheduled tourneys (the ones with 200-500 players with large buy ins/satellites) or start logging some serious time at the high limit NL cash games.
You also are going to need to get some experiance in the big live tourneys… Go to vegas and play in the world series.. there are lots of events to try out.

How long does the average online texas holdem tournament take?
October 6th, 2008
I've only been playing online for a short time and haven't had a chance to enter a tournament yet (I play on Party Poker if that information is needed to answer the question). Thanks in advance.
it depends on how well you do. look at how long the blinds will take to increase. usually longer blinds mean longer tournaments. you want the tournament to last as long as possible, cuz that will mean you are winning. good luck.

Is there currently any online poker sites where you can play texas holdem for real money in the US?
October 4th, 2008
I tried last night on titanpoker and it would not let me due to new laws…Does anybody know where I can play holdem' for real money and transfer funds via neteller?
Here is a summary of what is going on with online gambling in the United States.
1) Prior to the passing of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006, eleven states had laws on the books that specifically ban all forms of online gambling. These states are: IL, IN, LA, MI, NJ, NV, NY, OR, SD, WA, WI. Online gambling continues to be considered illegal in these states.
2) The Act did nothing to alter, curtail, or extend state laws regarding online gambling. Thus, it did not make online gambling illegal in all states.
3) The Act places restrictions on the financial transactions that occur in connection with online gambling; it restricts electronic fund transfers and the use of credit cards in connection with such wagering. This means that players can no longer make wagers, or collect winnings using electronic fund transfers, credit or debit cards, or some other online payment systems.
In response to the Act, online gambling sites have done one of three things with respect to US-based real-money players:
1) Continue to accept US-based real-money players from all states
2) Accept US-based real-money players from states other than the states in which online gambling is specifically outlawed (meaning no players from the states listed above)
3) Closed their site to all US-based real-money players
Here is a list of all gaming sites that continue to accept US-based real-money players from all states:

Here is a list of online poker sites that continue to accept US-based real-money players from all states:

Both of these lists are updated daily as gaming sites establish and publish their policy with respect to US-based real-money players.
Best of luck!

Does anyone have any tips on how to be a successful Texas Holdem player?
October 2nd, 2008
I have read some books, Harrington on Holdem, David Sklanskys and Mason Malmuths book on limit poker and I have built a pretty solid foundation. What I would like to know is the Tight Agressiive style the best option. I see all of these aggressive players play so wild at times and they make a profit from it. How do I get past the fear of jumping into that style, and would it be profitable in the long run.
I appreciate the practice practice practice response. However Tight Aggressive is a style, its playing very few hands but what hands you do play, you play very agressively. You do need to mix it up a bit because if someone labels you as a rock then the hands you do get involved in people wont play with you because your always playing the nuts. But when you do get a player its a huge payoff. If you play to many hands however people will believe your hand is strong less often. I suppose it is a balance of both, discipline and patience, thank you for your responses.
Generally speaking, tight, aggressive play in limit hold'em is rewarded with consistent gains over the long-term.
When you see the maniacs who are raising and 3-betting with marginal or very weak holdings and making a killing, you should keep in mind that you are often seeing short-term results. In the short-term, any idiot can get lucky and the world's most seasoned player can run bad.
However, this isn't to say that a maniac style cannot be profitable. The swings will be greater, and it demands much more knowledge of your opponents: Who will fold second-best hands and who will go to the showdown with a pair of deuces in the hole? Since you're losing a lot of small bets by raising with more hands, you need to make up for the losses by stealing pots from weak players and raking in huge pots when you do flop the stone-cold nuts.
Feel free to try the maniac style with a single buy-in at a single table and try to analyze your results afterwards.
I prefer to play tight-aggressive, but raise every 2-3 orbits in early position with hands that have potential but aren't normally worth calling 2SB. When you do showdown and win, you'll keep your opponents off-balance.
