If you keep whining about your bad luck, you will play like a weak, scared, passive victim. You will lose, and deserve to lose. If you realize that you’re about as lucky as everyone else, you can play like a confident, decisive winner.

I think Rush Poker is an evolution of the game of poker that is here to stay. It’s a brilliant move by Full Tilt Poker and I applaud them for being innovative. I hadn’t played a hand of No Limit Hold’em cash in over six months because I was just too bored of the game. I can’t get enough of rush. If the poker sites can do anything to get people enthusiastic about playing, then they are doing something right. That’s what gets fish to the games.

I don’t like seeing durrrr just own off the poker world and just win all the money from all the other fish, I don’t mind if Patrik [Antonius] and [Phil] Ivey win. I just can’t stand durrrr. I can’t stand durrrr’s face, durrrr’s voice, and durrrr’s eyes. I can’t stand anything about durrrr. He’s just an arrogant social retard. He’s spastic. There’s not much more to say than that. [...] I’m sending him broke before the end of 2010. That’s my goal.

Is Luke Schwartz the new Devilfish? He’s rude, obnoxious and I cannot wait to bust him up. This kid is not the kind of player you feel you can learn from – you just want to bust him.

Regardless of what one thinks of the proper public policy approach to gaming in general, it’s time to acknowledge that this incidence of ill-conceived prohibition has failed, is failing and will continue to fail because it completely ignores the reality of the Internet.

The worst thing about being a professional poker player is definitely that, if I win, say, $10,000, then the feeling doesn’t nearly compare to losing $10,000. Sometimes I feel you get way more deflation than happiness playing poker.

A rule of thumb for cash games is that the first raise means nothing, the reraise doesn’t mean much more, but the four-bet starts to get scary. In tournaments, the first raise still means nothing, but the reraise is already frightening.

I think even good players sometimes don’t adapt very well. They have pretty good basics, usually, especially these days online, but they don’t adapt enough to the flow of the game. They have just a basic strategy, and they aren’t very flexible. It’s very important to be flexible with your strategy in poker. If something you are doing is not working well at one table, there’s a reason. You have to think about it, and adapt.
