Playing Stud is always great for a change of pace..

I just played in a SCOOP satellite for the low stakes Stud event, and won a seat for it...it takes place next week on the 9th. It should be fun...it's a $33 event with $25K gtd....

Wow! Another good poker game by beaston.

Get to the final table and go for the big bucks.

You may want to stick to poker instead of blackjack, but I bet that would be hard to do.

I love both poker and blackjack. Only made it to one of those 25k tourneys and didn't make the money tables.

My problem is, I'm an action junkie, and blackjack plays into that oh too well. I remember the last time I went to the Borgata in AC, there was a list of about 150 people waiting for a 1/2NL table....suffice it to say I didn't play any poker that day.

I guess that's why online poker is so good, because you see so many more hands per hour, and can get involved more times than not...or play a hundred tables if you wanted to. lol

You got a point there with playing more hands per hour online.

I remember p-issing one person off in a tourney over the issue; where I thought there were more hands in live poker than online.
This was because a couple people at the table would wait for the clock to run out before checking or folding to a bet.
My guess is that the p-issed off person just wasn't getting what I was trying to get at;

too much time waiting to take my turn, online.

I know there can be many more hands played online than in live poker, but there are also times where it's the other way around.
