The Russians are Coming!!!
The Russians are invading America and they want your money. Don't believe me? Where have you been? Watching reruns of
when people actually cared about Micon? Russian poker
players are now beginning to dominate the sport. Naturally, any casual poker fan knows about Ivan Demidov and
his runner-up finish at the WSOP this year. He also finished
3rd in the WSOP-E Main Event.
Durrrr Dominating High Stakes Poker….NOT!
Are you as sick of hearing about durrrr as I am writing
about him? For the last three months, it has been nothing
but durrrr. Everyone is talking about how that "durrrr will
beat Patrik", "durrrr will beat Ivey," and "durrrr may be
the greatest of all time. "
In the meanwhile, durrrr has barely been keeping even with
Antonius. Of course, until recently, he seemed to be ducking
him.
Live Poker is Rigged Too!!
Online poker is not the only type of poker that can come
across as rigged. I was playing recently in an Omaha Hi-Lo
game in Atlantic City that should have been Omaha 8 or
Better, kings full or better for high. I played in the game for over an hour. In that hour, I had
my kings full cracked by quads.
