Yesterday the weekly Wednesday tournament was played at the local casino. Since today is Thursday that shouldn’t surprise anyone. Tomorrow it’s Friday but that’s another story.

In the current online gambling frenzy, site security generally causes no problems. We deposit cash, play the games and withdraw whatever cash is left without much thought of any problems that might appear in the process.

My friends, this is so great, I wish you were here with me. I’m sitting here in front of my computer watching the live broadcast of the 2006 WSOP championship event final table. How amazing is that! Kudos to Espn.com who streams the final table broadcast over the Internet for anyone to tap. Read the rest of this entry »

It is nice to sit down and play some poker. Most of the time, the chat is pretty silent. People focus on the game (I guess they have seen Phil Ivey on TV), and I’m sure the majority play multiple tables simultaneously, so there isn’t that much to time for conversation.

I notice that the gigantesque jackpot at InterCasino is still up for the taking. At the time of writing the jackpot display reads $3,699,441. This would certainly pay more than just a few parking tickets, even I must admit that. Read the rest of this entry »

Occasionally I play poker against my fellow work colleagues. Usually we play Texas Holdem but last week someone came up with the idea that we should try Omaha instead. Since many co-workers didn’t know how to play Omaha, there where a lot of murmuring like: “why”, “I don’t wanna”, “bah” “humbug”, and “nuts” going on. Finally we ended up with only three players.

Casino tournaments have always exercised a special attraction on me. You’re no longer alone against the “edgy” house. You get to compete against your fellow citizen for a while. Nice change for a lone gambler.

Okay, it was time to spend some time at the blackjack tables again. Since I’m a social animal I took a seat at the multiplayer blackjack tables at GoldenPalace.com. It’s nice having someone to chat with while you brood over your next smart move. Read the rest of this entry »

To tell you the truth, slots is not my strongest game. But, hey, how could anyone not play slots when there’s a record breaking jackpot sitting there waiting for a taker?! I just had to give the Millionaire’s Club a shot. I mean, the $3 million would pay at least half of my parking tickets.

The casino player community is as diversified as a deck of cards stacked with jokers. Some know for sure they have the capability to predict roulette spins – under the right conditions, that is.

The purchase by GoldenPalace.com of the pope’s old car is such a great story. Imagine this 21 year old guy in the south of Germany, carrying out his civil service, who bought a used car to travel to his girlfriend or who knows why.
