What It Is

Somebody should tell Senator Jon Kyl (Arizona Repuplican) who along with a few friends pushed the Unlawful Internet Gaming and Enforcement Act through congress to law riding on a bill about homeland security (which after 911 almost any of these are sure to pass) on the last day of the session when most of the potential voters had already gone home, that if he truly was worried about the reason he used for pushing this law through: to prevent children from stealing their parent’s credit cards for the purpose of funding online gambling endeavors (unless they wanted to bet on the horses or the lotteries, they are still okay … no small coincidence they are both gambling entities located in the states and very visible in DC), that he needn’t have bothered to take away yet another freedom of the American people. That simply isn’t the way kids think when it comes to stealing a credit card. They have other things in mind and young Ralph Hardy of Newark Texas is living proof of such matters.

A player who had over thirty thousand dollars in an online sport book (BetCris) was horrified to discover after logging into his account some two month’s later, that someone had taken about twenty thousand out of the account. Since this person is also a gambling guide of sorts (he’s a poker guide), he knew to contact support immediately and change the password to the account. He was then asked to send proof of identity documents to their customer service manager. The player-victim was told the account was now locked and that no further changes would be possible until the matter was resolved. He was told to contact BetCris the following day to address the issue in its entirety.

The advantage of playing blackjack on line starts with the speed of the game. Even using speed shufflers there is no way traditional blackjack tables can offer the speed of the games played on line. It takes time to go around and gather in cards, pay the winners and take from the losers. The average blackjack table in Vegas has at least three players sitting and needing the attention of the dealer so you can multiply that down time by three or more. Online casino games have no time spent on other people unless you’ve chosen to play at a multi-player table in which case there is a slight down time allowed per player to make their wagering decision but it is in no way as slow as playing at a game in Vegas.

Its true! Progressive slot games do at times have a positive expectation value on what you are gambling to win them. Many people are unaware of this fact but not everybody. There are actually professional slot machine game players which form into teams and they watch the progressive games for them to reach a level of payout where it becomes a business of spending low to sell high, so to speak. These teams work as packs and they prey on the positive expectation value of a progressive slot game which has few enough individual machines involved in the progressive scheme that they can as a pack attack it from all angles meaning they try to monopolize the games by placing a team member in each seat of every machine involved in the payout.

Sit N Go poker tournaments are a unique animal. When the blinds are small you want try to avoid a big pot unless you have a big hand and are willing to risk your tourney. An example is a hand like 99. If you don’t hit a set you have to be ready to get away. These are dangerous hands to raise (or even get involved in) from early position early in a SNG.
