Today nothing early I can see and nothing even close so dont expect any plays later today
If you want on the email or text messaging list for early and late plays just drop me an email. I will still post both on this blog.
The split between early and late plays is about 50-50 and I would expect that to continue through the rest of the season. These late plays are FREE. Just send me your email address and I will add you to the group receiving late plays.
Poker comments
I received the following email regarding Tournament play in Las Vegas:
Rick, I’ve been absolutely loving the poker commentary. I know you usually talk about cash games. I was wondering if there are any regular tournaments in Vegas that have decent structures. So far I like the mega stack series, but they are only run for a few weeks during the year. Are there regular tournaments, with decent stacks, and levels that would be good to play for a change of pace from pure cash games?
My Answer:
The trend right now since the Venetian started deep stack tournaments is now most casinos offer them. Usually during a major tournament many other hotels have tournaments for much smaller buyins. It seems the Venetian is the best. Also from what I have heard the Venetian offers the best value on its weekly tournaments at least as far a stack size.
I dont play tournaments much since I dont feel there is much value in them for the average player. Certainly if your in the top 1% of the tourament players there is value…but even then there are plenty of tournament players that are broke consistently.
The reason I feel is first the variance is monumental. You can go months without cashing in a tournament. And more importantly the house takes out anywhere from 8 to 13 percent!!!!! Thats a very tough rake to overcome.
If any of you have more questions or comments ask away…poker , sports, vegas.
