High Stakes Poker

Posted by Curtom | April 25, 2008 | Posted in: Articles, News |

I have been watching HSP season four and boy is there a lot of action in this series. One thing I noticed is that this season, as in the last, Jaime Gold is completely out classed. The poor guy just will not fold a hand and it has cost him about 300k thus far. The buy-in has been bumped up to 500k.

I know Gold continues to say that talking is a part of his game but what he doesn’t realize is that he is sitting with several extremely seasoned players and he gives away the strength of his hand every single time. I know if I can figure it out obviously the pros can and they have. Hand after hand he is basically giving away money. Talk about being over matched. It’s kinda sad in a way. It’s like the definition of insanity. He keeps doing the same thing expecting a different result.

Scary.

Farha is playing great after being stuck for around 200k. He is now back to around even. Therein lies the difference between the two. Sammy might be a loose player but he will fold when he is beat. Great show though and you can learn alot from watching it.

Other than that no other news to report at this time. I am still working on my online poker game and trying to improve as usual. Getting ready to go to Las Vegas in July for a re-union so I will be playing plenty of poker tournaments there too. Talk to you soon.
