Time to save AP?

2011-08-17T17:07:00.000-04:00

As some of you know, i was very affected by Black Friday,in my case 75% of my eggs were at Absolute Poker, so by simple maths i had to step back 2 stake levels.

After the first week i had my first $500 withdraw approved, so i trough the issue was solved, but sadly my second withdraw has taken over 2 months now and is still waiting.

Its not hard to figure out that all i have been doing in the past weeks is cursing the DOJ and AP, this even have affected the time i feel in top form to play.

But now im realising that the Absolute Poker staff seems to be doing everything they can to save the ship because i have heard about a payout here and there, actually i have noted a slightly traffic increase, so they probably are paying with the rake they are generating.

I think its time to ask the players that still have some funds there to wake up and start playing some hands there,ill even go further by asking the no US players to make a small deposit if you can afford it, if some of you do this it could make a huge diference.

Im not asking this to help the site or even me, im asking this to support online poker against all the attacks we get from the outside world.

Ill be playing occasionally the 1K tournaments and the omaha jackpot tables, so i hope to see you there also.

Thanks for reading and GL at the tables.

Just in case you are wondering...

About work, well i have been playing rush poker for the last 3 months,i really love it, but its very hard to make profit (im only 1 bb/100 up),im playing at least 50K hands each month.

The problem with rush poker is that when you play regular tables and tournaments you find it veryyyyy boring.

Ill start to sharing at chipmeup, so take a part and let me do the work for you.

El pasado domingo jugue el 2do 50k garantizado el cual arrojo un grotesco overlay de sobre los 20k, esta vez logre meterme en la mesa final y estube cerca de cobrar 5cifras.

Sin duda alguna el mejor torneo de 100$ del mundo actualmente.

Reto cumplido...

2009-03-31T19:17:00.000-04:00

Pues ya es ultimo y cuando faltan pocas horas para cerrar el mes, puedo decir que el semi reto que me propuse este mes se ha cumplido lo cual era evitar el burn out y reencontrar mi juego.

Lo mas importante es que cambie varios aspectos en mi juego de nl cash con lo cual me estoy adaptando al estilo agresivo que dictan las escuelas hoy en dia. Debo aceptar que la influencia de estas corrientes agresivas hicieron mas daño que bien a mi juego ya que simplemente el año pasado trate de fotocopiar el estilo de juego de jugadores agresivos muy exitosos lo cual lamentablemente a mi no me funciono.

Hay un factor que tal vez sea menospreciado, y es la personalidad del jugador y como esto influye en su estilo de juego y el exito o fracaso de la aplicacion de nuevas tecnicas, esto quiere decir que no necesariamente lo que sea +ev para unos lo sea para todos.

Retomando lo del cash,me gustaria explicar con detalles cada cambio renglon x renglon, pero como muchos de las personas que juegan contra mi entran aca , no lo voy a hacer, lo que si les puedo decir que hay cosas totalmente inversas a lo que dictan las escuelas y hasta stats que se podrian decir que son malos, digamos que retomo algunas cosas del la escuela antigua pero dejo algunas de la moderna.Lo que sucede es que este juego aplica en cierto modo el piedra , papel o tijera y por ende hay que irse adaptando a los cambios, por supuesto que los stats de los rivales y la posicion sigue siendo primordial.

Hasta el momento estos cambios me han funcionado muy bien y cierro el mes con una ganancia ajustada al promedio mensual de por vida, lo cual es bastante si se toma en consideracion el nivel de las mesas en la actualidad.

Para terminar tambien estare pendiente de posibles ajustes que hagan los contrarios para contrarestar mi nuevo estilo.

De regreso al trabajo.

2009-03-03T01:04:00.000-05:00

Como algunos sabian decidi tomarme completamente el mes de febrero de vacaciones, esta ha sido apenas la 2da vez que me tomo un break desde que empeze con esto hace 3 años. Estaba bastante burn out,pero en estos momentos me siento muy bien y despejado mentalmente.

Yo se que lo que esta de moda son los retos, pero a veces me parece que los retos te fuerzan mucho y pueden a llegar a ser contraproducentes psicologicamentes , pero de todas formas mi reto va a ser evitar el burn out ante nada, si esto requiere que no voy a jugar suficiente pues lo hare, lamentablemente jamas me he sentido comodo jugando multimesas, y esto es otra cosa que intentare hacer ( jugar comodo).

Asi cual es mi plan? Pues sencillo lo que hecho toda mi vida: patrullar y farmear promos. Para ser mas especificos:buscar torneos con overlay, acumulados con +ev, mesas de cash con vip o buen ave pot(holdem , omaha y omaha hl), hacer puntos para freerools, meterme en el mtt leaderboard, perseguir vips (ballenas),entre otras cosas. lo importante es no enfocarme mucho en una sola cosa, para no entrar en la monotomia otra vez, que particularmente me afecta.

Aparte de esto , esta proximo el lanzamiento del nuevo club vip en merge, despues de analizarlo, adoptare una estrategia para sacarle max provecho.

Eso si he empezado el mes ganando un poco en cada cosa, gsne un par de sits de 20$, 3ro en un mtt de 25$, y ganando algo en cash.

Como anectoda, jugue un mtt en stars con D. Phillips, aqui les dejo el pic:

Hasta cuando tanta tragedia?

2009-01-26T18:20:00.000-05:00

La verdad es que ando bien arrecho, en un par de meses llevo 5000$ en perdidas, casi todo en mtts cortos gracias al maldito rng de carbon poker.

Yo se que el poker es asi, pero me cuesta creer que sea posible tener tantas bad beats seguidas,solo como ejemplo los ultimos 4 torneos:

Un 50k con 4m me voy all con Aq me paga 83o y sale 88.
El deep de ayer: QQ vs KJc , raise fuerte flop 57cTc; me voy all por algo menos del pote y sale la k en el t.
El 22k: Con 6m de sb raise 3x con AA me pagan, salen 3s en el flop y me voy all con algo mas que el pote , me paga Qs5s.
El deep de hoy: Desde co me roban 3x con a5s, con un pfr de 12 yo me voy all con AJo con alrededor de 7m, flop A river 5.

Y asi puedo seguir y facilmente llegar a 100 practicamente consecutivas.

Aparte de eso el poco cash nl que juego los fines de semana sii la mesa esta buena, perdi 3 sets flopeados para perder 3 cajas rapidamente, o sea que es mejor foldear los sets.

Por el momento me voy de nuevo a stars a ver si esta desgracia para en algun momento.

Nuevo Record Mundial?

2009-01-20T00:59:00.004-05:00

Esa es la pregunta que me vengo haciendo durante la semana, por que el bad beat jackpot de carbon poker se acerca peligrosamente y en estos momentos esta a menos de 10.000$ de romper el record vigente de 1.013.000$.

Aunque hay preguntas mas importantes que responder:

Cuando exactamente y en que mesa pasara?

Estare yo en la mesa?

Estaras tu?

Tan cercaaa!!!

2008-12-27T19:55:00.001-05:00

Si se fijan el otro casi tenia escalera de color (solo con un hueco, con lo cual mi poker de 7s hubiera perdido. Si esto hubiera pasado me habria ganado la modesta suma de 293.000 $... arrgggg....

La virosis me tiene reventado.

2008-12-21T12:20:00.000-05:00

Bueno, hoy llevo 5 dias dias practicamente en cama con la gripecita esta de navidad que no me pelo y lo peor a toda la familia. Esto ya parece un hospital, de trabajo muy poco , esta ha sido la semana en que menos jugue en todo el año. Sin embargo ayer hubo una ventanita en la que no me senti tan mal y me jugue un par de turbitos de 45 60% el buy , el primero lo perdi rapido , el segundo lo gane.

Tambien me juegue el deep y cobre de tercero sin tener que recargar. Creo que no esta mal para un moribundo.

Llevaba un par de meses sin jugarlo debido a la falta de bank hasta que gane los 7k la semana pasada, desde ahy hize 2 burbujas y un par eliminaciones rapidas, era entonces mi 5to deep desde mi reaparicion en el para ganarlo por trigesimaprimera vez.

Como siempre este mini torneo siempre da algo de overlay, esta vez eran 350$ agregados, lo mejor es que habia comprado la entrada con los comp points, jaja.

Coño...

2008-12-07T17:00:00.000-05:00

Hoy andaba muy emocionado por que iba a jugar mi primer sunday million que para mi es uno de los mejores torneos del mundo y era una de mis principales metas (jugarlo pero teniendo la aprobacion del br) . Pero en el 2do nivel me paso una tragedia horrible: yo de sb me sale AA preflop, ciega 50/100 yo tengo 9000 fichas, el bb era un maniac que estaba robando como loco a los 2 sitouts que habian en la mesa. Bueno yo subo a 300 , el maniac me resube a 900, yo le hago el rrr a 2700, el maniac paga. Flop jtx rainbow yo hecho all in tratando de darle horribles odds y mostrar algo de debilidad, como 20 o 30% mas del pote y me paga enseñando q9d. Por supuesto que la k cae en el river eliminandome en un ridiculo puesto 7077. Podia volver a inscribirme pero con el tilt que cogi lo mejor era irse.

Inmaginense que esta vaina le pase a uno en vivo, perder un dia volando a otro pais , llegar y pasar esa arrechera en el lv 2, para luego tener que devolverse con el rabo entre las piernas. De pana que esto me pondria en un tilt horrible por varios dias.

Aqui les pongo la fotico , para que se burlen de lo pateado que quede, y bueno para que vean lo jugoso del premio.

2008-11-30T06:05:00.000-05:00

Pues si, despues de mas de 3 años en el poker , por fin he logrado un resultado decente. Despues de 7 horas de torneo acabo de terminar en 3er lugar en el 70k garantizado de poker stars, cobrando la nada mala suma de 7k. Mi mejor cobro habia sido apenas 1650$ en uno de tantos deeps que gane.
Me paso algo extraño durante el torneo y fue que los nervios me jugaron una mala pasada y mi animo siempre estuvo por el suelo a pesar de ir dominando el torneo ( esto debido a que con tantas bad beats seguidas durante estos meses, siempre doy como un hecho que me va a pasar la tradicional tragedia), pero cuando llegue a la mesa final y me veo con un millon 200 mil fichas , realmente crei que era mi dia y los nervios desaparecieron. Lamentablemente habia un jugador estremadamente agresivo que me peleo ferozmente el comando del torneo. Paso algo parecido a la batalla jesus vs fee, robos vs rerobos mientras el resto de la mesa solo esperaba premiums,a la final no puede ligar frente al bomb y tuve que dejarle el control del torneo. Ya cuando quedabamos 3 el payout era 7k al 3ro, 9k al 2do y 12 k el 1ro, quedando un jugador neutral y el bomb (30/27/9), decidi que era 3ro o 1ro, con 55 en el sb le subo a 150k al bb que era el neutral el cual me hace all con su resto de 500k , con un call de 350k (7x) decido jugarmela ya que el otro ya llevaba casi 2 millones de fichas y yo solo 1 million y el bomb que nos estaba arrollando a los 2, bueno decido pagar, el otro enseña aqo y con la q en el flop me deja en apenas 450k (9x). La mano siguiente k9s me voy all y el bb me paga con kq sacandome del torneo. Por cierto un agradecimiento a pepe que vaticino que lo iba a ganar, bueno no lo pude ganar, para la proxima. Aqui les dejo algunos pics del torneo:

Aqui tenia apenas 27000 fichas , pero ya iba de 2do quedando 552, fijense en la hora 12:05

Esta es llegando a la mesa final

y esta ultima justo antes de quedar eliminado

A la caza del Bad Beat Jackpot

2008-11-17T17:40:00.000-05:00

Bueno, tras una semana con mi computadora principal mala , ya la repare y estoy a la caza del acumulado de merge que esta grandisimo, estoy jugando 4 mesas de nl 100 y cambiando un par de cosas en mi juego ya que no podia ganar en cash. Aparente estos cambios( cambios muy a mi estilo y deducido mas que todo con la almohada) estan haciendo efecto y estoy ganando algo finalmente. He tenido opcion de ganarmelo , solo hoy tenia poker de ts con posible draw en la mesa y otra mano que yo ya habia foldeado 62o, jj vs aa se fueron all in , con flop axj turn j y un outer para el milagro , pero no se dio esta vez.

2 Cash simultaneos

2008-11-07T21:32:00.000-05:00

Bueno como ultimamente se me olvido como ganar un torneo y algo hay que escribir aqui, hoy tengo que destacar en mi mediocre carrera un par de cashes simulteaneos que acabo de lograr.

El primero fue el 7500$ de noiq poker (50$ buy),en el cual termine 14/175 para cobrar 105$, la mano que me saca fue asi , tenia como 30k fichas y las ciegas estaban en 2k, de bb me sale 39o, un jugador en mp paga y el sb completa, flop es k 3 7, todos pasan, cae 9 en el t , dandome 2 pares bajos, el sb echa 7k y yo rr 27k allin , sb paga y enseña k9o , dejandome afuera.

El segundo fue un 50k de stars que empezo 30 min despues, en el cual llegue a estar de 12th con 70k fichas pero despues me fue diluyendo debido a que mis intentos de robo fueron defendidos, hasta que con 24k y ciegas en 4k , me sale a2o en sb, todos foldean y con solo 6 ciegas en un torneo con antes , estoy obligado a robar al bb en esta situacion, pero este me atajo con a9o dejandome de 38th para unos miseros 122$ si vemos los 10k que pagaba el primero.

Les dejo con el pic y seguire tratando a ver si algun dia la pego, gl en las mesas.

Debi foldear AA preflop?

2008-11-06T21:55:00.000-05:00

Hace rato jugue el freeroll que les mencione abajo, en el cual clasificaban 9 al siguente torneo. El hecho fue que quedando 12 y yo estando de 5to , me sale AA de bb y el dealer se va allin como con 6000 fichas, yo tenia como 7000 y decidi pagar despues de pensarlo un rato, el otro enseña kjo, flop kxx, tx , y el hdp river suelta la j.

La question es que pienso que si hubiera foldeado el resto del torneo hubiera clasificado con cierta facilidad..

Atencion Venezolanos.

Jesus Bertoli 4to en el LAPT de Costa Rica.

Hace pocos momentos Jesus Bertoli acaba de finalizar su participacion en el LAPT de costa rica con un decoroso 4to lugar, llevandose la nada despreciable cifra de 80603$.

La mano final fue asi: estando short stack , jesus se va all in de cut off con A3o, dealer y sb foldean para el chip leader con mas de 1 million de fichas paga con kq ,en el flop cae kq sufiente para eliminar a jesus.

Felicitaciones por este increible logro jesus, y que sigan los exitos¡

Aqui vemos a jesus contando sus fichas en la mesa final , observado muy atentamente por humberto brenes el cual le dio mucho apoyo.

Administracion de capital.

2008-10-08T19:14:00.000-04:00

Este es un articulo que escribi hoy para un foro de noiq poker.

Saludos, vamos a inaugurar esta seccion "zona shark" con una recomendacion de como gestionar tu capital de juego de forma que sea practicamente imposible que quiebres.

Antes que nada tienes que decidir que tipo de jugador eres, basicamente tienes 2 opciones: puedes jugar por diversion o puedes jugar con una gestion profesional.

La primera forma es la mas sencilla: simplemente deposita una cantidad que no te importe perder y juega donde mas te apetesca.

La segunda es la mas dificil, ya que es la cantidad de capital de la que dispongas la que te va a decir que limite vas a jugar.Esta estrategia la he simplificado de manera que sea de facil calculo y es lo que actualmente uso.

Funciona asi:
Cada vez que vallas a hacer un buy in o entrar en una mesa tienes que saber el monto exacto de tu capital( si juegas en varios sites suma todo),y lo divides entre 50 y esto te va a dar una cifra al la cual vas a llamar el limite.La unica regla es JAMAS hacer una entrada de dinero que supere este limite asi sea por 1 centavo. Con solo cumplir este regla es practicamente imposible que quiebres.

Por ejemplo, si dispones de 370$ lo divides entre 50 y esto te va a dar 7.40$, esto quiere decir que puedes jugar nl5$ o torneos o sits de 5.50$ max (no se te olvide incluir el fee en el calculo).

En el caso de la promocion de 50$ seria 50$ /50 =1.00$ , esto te limita a entrar con medio buy en las mesas nl2$ aqui, tambien dispones de sit de 0.60$, 0.24$ y 0.12$ en caso de que vallas mal. El primer objetivo seria elevar el capital a 100$ para poder hacer el buy completo o jugar medio buy en nl 4$, tambien puedes agregar torneos de 1.10$.

La excepcion a la regla son mtts de mas de 1000 personas, aqui se debe dividir entre 75 (1,5 % max). Si el mtt pasa de 5000 personas se debe dividir entre 100 (1% max).

Para terminar es recomendable retirarse de las mesas cuando el stack alcanze un 5% o 6% de tu capital.

Suerte en las mesas.

Deep Stack 30th

2008-09-03T20:48:00.000-04:00

Por fin he vuelto a ganar otra vez, aparentemente el rng y su socio el river me han dado un pequeño respiro. Paso algo curioso en las ultimas 2 manos: tenia yo como 20k fichas y el otro tenia 35k, acababan de subir las ciegas a 1,6k, y llevaba un par de niveles ya en el hu, decidi arrollar o perder de una buena vez. Me robo un par de ciegas hasta que me sale A8o y vuelvo a atacar y recibo un rr all in , decido pagar por que llevaba varias seguidas atacando, lo cierto es que el contrario enseña 22 , pero logro hacer una escalera en el river, y lo dejo como en 5k fichas, acto seguido me sale 22 a mi, me voy all in y me paga A8o, o sea la mismas 2 manos pero invertidas, pero esta vez el par de 2s aguanto. Jeje, es bueno ver la luz al final del tunel (espero).

Momento kodak

2008-08-04T04:11:00.001-04:00

Hoy me paso algo muy curioso, bien adentrado en 2 mtts largos me encontre por un momento en primer lugar en ambos, lamentablemente despues de ahy no me fue tan bien y termine de 5to y 18th para un total de 600$.

Voy a aprovechar para comentar que me fue muy mal los dos ultimos meses teniendo unas perdidas totales de alrededor de 3000 $, pero desde hace unos dias he empezado a ganar otra vez en cash y en torneos, espero ponerme al dia en un par de dias mas.

Summer Champs 08

2008-06-02T19:44:00.000-04:00

Por fin me he decido a participar este año en la version de carbon poker del wsop.
Este ya es el tercer año en que se celebra este evento, y es tan exitoso que otros sites como bodog han implementado la idea.
Aunque los buys son muy bajos, me he decido a participar de todas formas.

Otro sabado mas...

Me he olvidado un tanto del blog , supongo que la fiebre de escribir mis memorias ya se me esta pasando. De todas formas les dire que me ha ido bastante bien. Cerre marzo sobre los 3k y abril parece que va por la misma via.En cuanto al deep no lo he vuelto a ganar, pero si he estado cobrando.He jugado algunos torneos fuertes de 150$ en stars pero no he podido ganar nada que valga la pena comentar. En cash bueno estoy jugando alrededor de 1000 manos diarias en nl 100 y nl 200 en merge y llevo sobre los 4 bb/100, tambien he botado un poco jugando carribean stud ya que el jp esta por los 70k y el ev+ empieza despues de los 60k, estube a punto de ganarme 68k aqui , ya que me salio ad kd td qd 5d, cerca.En resumen nada fuerte pero ganado que es lo que al final importa.

March Madness Carbon Poker Promotion

2008-03-02T04:56:00.000-05:00

You can win their way to free cash in our March Madness promotion!

To celebrate St. Patrick's Day, we've gone Irish and added pots of gold for every player to win! You can receive up to $2000 free cash in total during March Madness by winning all pots of gold on the rainbow.

In the players admin section, a customized rainbow will track their Comp Point earnings throughout March, and pay out a pot of gold with each increment achieved. Each color on the rainbow will have a Comp Point goal, and as you work towards that level, the colours on the rainbow will fill up. Every time they fill up one of the colors, the corresponding pot of gold will light up, and they're a winner! The more Points your players earn, the more they will win.

Comp Points are automatically earned as they play real money games, so you can simply continue to play their favourite ring games or tournaments and work towards free cash at the same time! So look out for the rainbow Comp Point counter in their player admin, and create a free cash goal for March!

Felicitaciones Chatica!!!

Me acabo de enterar que chatica esta jugando el super freeroll de cake poker, y cuando entre a ver estaba HU. Es una estructura loca que paga 500$ al 6to puesto, 10000 $ al 2do y 75000 $ al ganador.Casi me cai para atras cuando le vi ganar el torneo. Felicitaciones¡¡¡. que disfrutes tu nueva vida¡¡¡¡

2008, un mal año hasta ahora.

2008-03-01T16:13:00.000-05:00

Van 2 meses del 2008 y todavia no he podido ganar,sacando cuentas al momento voy -240$ en lo que va de año, lo cual aunque no suene mucho no se acerca en nada a los promedios que acostumbro.

Por suerte los meses finales de 2007 fueron muy buenos, y puede hacer algunos retiros decentes con lo cual calculo que puedo vivir por lo menos un año con cierta comodidad,asi que tengo lo que resta del año para levantar mi br sin los bajones obligados de los habituales retiros.

Este mes voy a parar un poco el juego de ring en absolute,ya que tras 65k manos solo me ha dejado el rb de ganancia practicamente (el extra rake para el acumulado la verdad que pesa en full ring ),y voy a enfocarme mucho mas en carbon poker que es el site donde historicamente me ha ido mejor y en donde me ofrecen los mejores beneficios.

Espero que con estos ajustes todo vuelva a la normalidad, amanecera y veremos.

Esto no se lo deseo ni a chavez.

2008-02-19T19:28:00.000-05:00

La verdad es que estoy pasando por un downswing de pelicula,cosas increibles que a uno le pasa un par de veces al dia, me estan pasando cada 15 min . Habia visto posts de downswings impresionantes ,pero una vaina es verlo y otra es vivirlo.Tanto es asi que he perdido el 50% de mi bankroll en 3 meses.En mis casi 3 años de carrera habia pasado por muchos downswings pero nada parecido a esto. Solo gracias a mi extricta administracion de br, es que no estoy quebrado en estos momentos.Los sets estan mas escasos que conseguir un kilo de leche y ni se diga de los proyectos, esos se dan toditos, pero para los demas.Tan fea esta la vaina que ver perder AA all pre flop es algo rutinario de cada sesion.
Y para que vean que no estoy hablando pendejadas aqui les dejo una manito del deep de hoy donde iba de 2do o 3ro quedando 6.

Y como si hicieran la vaina a proposito para que me muera mas de la arrechera, ahi quede con 1000 fichas ,y de bolas en vez de matarme de una , nooo me salio de todo hasta que me monte en 15k fichas, y de bolas que ahy no me salio mas un coño por media hora hasta que me tuve que ir all con t9s de dealer con 5 ciegas restando, claro que me pagaron con aj y me sacaron de 4to. O sea burbuja cuando el 3ro paga 550$.

La verdad es que estoy como dice pepe, pa salir a la calle a matar gente.

Ejemplo de un buen overlay.

2008-02-10T14:28:00.000-05:00

Si se fijan este torneo tiene un premio garantizado de 2750$. Hubieron 17 jugadores a 109$ c/u= 1853$, mas 4 rebuys a 100$= 400$, en total se pagaron 1853$+400$= 2253$.
Aplicando la regla de 3: 2750$ x100/2253$= 122.05 ,o sea 22% de overlay neto. Explicandolo mejor por cada 1$ pagado en inscripcion el site pone 22 centavos extra.

Overlay = +EV

2008-02-09T12:24:00.000-05:00

Sunday $20,000 Guaranteed
Carbon Poker's Sunday $15,000 Guaranteed tournament has long been the best E.V. online... But at Carbon Poker we wanted to give our players an even better chance at winning even more cash.

That's why we've increased the prize pool yet again!. So, now you can play for your share of...

$20,000 In Guaranteed Cash Every Sunday!

But that's not even the best part. The tournament usually has between 200 to 227 players which means the field is far less than the guaranteed prizepool. $20,000 / $55 = more than 363 entrants, which means that there is heaps of extra money to win, and not as many players as would normally be needed to generate that amount.

You have two options available for entry, including:

Buying straight in for $55 + $5
$60 Satellite entry coupon (You can win this for as little as $2)

21th win. Awesome come back.

2008-02-05T20:39:00.000-05:00

As some of you know, i was going true a 3 weeks downswing.So when in todays deep stack i did the bubble i was more happy than usual.I was almost chipleader when i lost a big hand,i had only 3000 chips left (2000/1000 blinds). But i ran lucky and a pasive oponent in my rigth let me recover , so the final hand was a rr with k7 in a 986 board and i could hit the str8 in the river.

Another yuck¡

CarbonPoker.com's Heart Attack

2008-01-28T22:56:00.000-05:00

We're celebrating February in style by spreading the love of Valentine's Day to all our poker players. Of course, love is always sweetened with a nice win at the tables, so it's time for everyone to take on CarbonPoker.com's Heart Attack!

We'll be running a Heart Attack freeroll every day, open to any player who has earned at least 700 Comp Points before the tournament. In your Player Admin section, we have set up a personalized Freeroll Counter, which tracks how many Comp Points you need to collect before earning a coupon for entry into our daily freerolls.

There is a guaranteed $500 prize pool to win in each daily tournament throughout the week, and $1000 on both Saturday and Sunday. There's no break in the action, with four tournaments running over the weekend, two on each day. Players can now keep track of both their tournament winnings and our unique Heart Monitor, which is the surprise twist in our special month!

In addition to the standard prize payout structure for each tournament, we've created an entirely separate Heart Attack prize pool for players to win during the game. For example, in our $1000 Saturday tournaments, half of the prize pool ($500) will be divided up and paid out according to the standard tournament structure, while the other half will be used to reward players who collect running Hearts in their hole cards!

Como les iba relatando anteriormente, me decidi a indagar sobre la informacion que me habian dado en el chat de pogo.Era mayo de 2005 cuando me registre en un sitio exclusivo de poker llamado pokerchamps el cual estaba representado por un tal "gus hansen" que del cual yo ni idea tenia de quien podia ser.Ciertamente ahy ofrecian unos freerolls de 15$ cada 4 horas con capacidad para 1500 personas,los cuales empeze a jugar, y en promedio jugaba 4 de los 6 que ofrecian a diario.Inmediatamente me di cuenta de que los faciles tiempos de hacer tokens en pogo habian quedado atras.Pero como les he contado anteriormente no soy de los que se dejan derrotar facilmente por un video juego, asi que entre freeroll y freeroll, empeze a estudiar paguinas web de estrategia. La primera que recuerdo era pokertips la cual ofrece imformacion basica del juego, que era lo que yo realmente necesitaba, tambien fueron de mucha utilidad los articulos de pokerlistings. Asi que poco a poco acumulando experiencia en estos freerolls, estudiando articulos y sobre todo disenando una estrategia propia basada en calculos matematicos y estadisticos muy basica para ese momento,logre empezar a ganar algunos centavos aqui y alla que luego desafortunadamente perdia al incursionar en micro stakes.Pasaron varios meses en los cuales lo unico que hacia era acumular mucha esperiencia pero nada de bankroll, cuando mi amigo marcos me pasa la informacion de un site llamado www.poker.com, en el cual ofrecian unos asombrosos freerolls de 100$.Fue asi que en agosto de ese mismo año 2005 que me registre en www.poker.com, y a los 2 dias jugando uno de esos freerolls cobre 75 centavos con los cuales me fui a las mesas de micro limite. Desde ese momento todo cambio, tanto asi que en ese mes de septiembre converti esos 75 centavos en 105$, en octubre los 105$ pasaron a ser unos fabulosos 1293$y finalmente despues en noviembre mi bankrool acsendia a unos impresionanttes 2897$. Es decir 75 centavos los converti en 2897$ en tan solo 90 dias!!!. En ese mismo momento decidi dejar a lado todo lo que estaba haciendo y convertirme en profesional a tiempo completo.

As i was relating previously, i decided to investigate the information that i heard in the pogo chat.It was May of 2005 when i registered in an exclusive poker site called pokerchamps, it was represented by "gus Hansen" who of which i had no idea of who he was.Certainly they were 15$ freerolls every 4 hours with capacity for 1500 players, so i started to play those, and in average i played 4 of the 6 that they offer each day.Inmediatly i notice that the easy pogo times were over.But as i have explain before, i am not the person who gives easyly up against a video game. So between freerolls, i start to study strategy web pages.The first that comes to my memory was pokertips which offers basic imformacion of the game,that was what i really needed, also the pokerlistings articles helped to. So i slowly was accumulating experience in these freerolls, studying strategy and desinging an own basic mathematic and statistical strategy,i manages to begin to earn some cents, only to lose it at the micro stakes tables.It passes several months in which the only thing that i accumulate was experience but nothing of bankroll.Some day my friend marcos passes me the information of a site called poker.com, in which they offer amazing 100$ freerolls.So in August of that same year 2005 i registered in poker.com, and to 2 days after playing one of those freerolls i cashed 75 cents, so i hit the micro limits tables. From that moment all change, in that month of September i converted those 75 cents in 105$, in October the 105$ passed to be 1293$ y later in November my bankrool was up to an amazing 2897$. It means that i turned 75 cent in 2897$ in only 90 days!!!. At that same moment i decide for leaving everything i was doing and become a full time poker player.

Siempre me han fascinado los juegos en pc, especialmente cualquier cosa que lanzara blizzard yo tenia que jugarlo y terminarlo, claro que en venezuela todavia no habia internet. En aquellos tiempos en que juegos como las sagas diablo y starcraff eran el ultimo grito de la moda, yo visitaba regularmente a mi familia en miami por un par de meses cada vez. Para mi felicidad todos alla jugaban juegos en pc. Cada uno tenia su propia pc y con la novedosa coneccion a internet, por supuesto que yo me desvelaba incursionando en ese maravilloso y nuevo mundo. Fue justamente en aquellos dias que mi mama la cual tambien se desvelaba jugando en http://www.pogo.com/ , se gano un acumulado de 4999$ jugando una version de gin (para los que no lo conozcan pogo.com es un site gratis muy divertido con muchos tipos de juegos y algunos incluyen un acumulado que es patrocinado por empresas) , claro que yo no me lo creia y pensaba que era una especie de farsa y hasta me burlaba de esto. Pero para mi sorpresa al cabo de un par de semanas se aparece mi mama sosteniendo un fabuloso cheque de 4999$ en sus manos, con el cual dias despues remodelo algunos muebles de la casa. Por supuesto que en ese momento se me olvido todo esto de blizzard que yo jugaba y me dispuse a jugar en pogo como un loco por el resto de mi estadia alla.
Al cabo de un par de años finalmente aparecio el internet en venezuela y yo fui de los primeros que sali a instalarlo. Por supuesto que lo que yo jugaba era pogo en cualquier momento libre que tenia. Mi estrategia de pogo era simple:jugar los juegos con el maximo acumulado, y unos de los juegos que siempre tenia un buen jackpot era una version de omaha en la cual podias pagar algo extra para ver una carta adicional despues del river. Esta version de omaha me empezo a gustar mucho y rapidamente empeze a ganar tokens (que es una especie de play money de pogo), hasta que un dia chateando entre manos alguien me informo que habian sites donde se jugaba dinero real y que ofrecian una especie de eventos llamados freerools.
Continuara...

PC games have always fascinated me, specially any thing that blizzard launch i had to play it and to finish it, but in Venezuela we didnt had internet allready. In those times games as the diablos and the starcraffs were the fashion last scream. I regularly visited my family in miami by a pair of months every time. For my happiness everyone played PC games . Each one had their own PC and with the novel internet connection.Of course that i kept awake unlit lately hours surfing in that wonderful and new world. It was exactly in those days that my mother also played a lot in http://www.pogo.com/ , she won a 4999$ jackpot playing a gin version (for those who dont know pogo.com is a free to play site very amused with many types of games and somes include jackpots that is sponsored by companies), of curse that i didnt believe that the prize was real and trough that its was a fraud or something and also make some fun about it. But for my surprise after a pair of weeks my mom appears with a fabulous 4999$ check in her hands, which days after she buy some new furniture for the house. Of course that i forgot all about blizzard games that i played and started to play in pogo like a crazy person by the rest of my staying there. After a pair of years finally the Internet came to Venezuela and I was the first to install it. Of course that what i played was pogo at any free time that i had. My pogo strategy was simple:play the games with the highest jackpot, and one of the games that always had a good jackpot was a omaha version of in which you could get a extra card after the river paying an extra pot contribuition. I liked this omaha version and i start to gain a lot tokens quickly (that is a kind of pogo play money), until a day, chating bettewn hands somebody told me that they were only poker sites where you could play with real money and that they offer some events called freerolls.

Hola poker,gusto en conocerte / Hi poker,nice to meet you

Mi primer encuentro con el poker fue hace muchos años atras cuando viajaba frecuentemente por cuestiones de trabajo, en esos viajes largos por supuesto hay que parar a comprar gasolina, generalmente en estos sitios siempre encuentras restaurantes y bares donde en casi todos tenian maquinas de video slot las cuales me gustaban mucho y generalmente dejaba una tajada de dinero en cada una de ellas, aparte de las 2 o 3 maquinas de video slot habia tambien una maquina tipo pinball pero esta era diferente con muchos agujeros en la cual tenias que apostar y cada hueco pagaba cierta cantidad o algo asi, por que la verdad nunca me llamo la atencion y finalmente habia una ultima maquina que se llamaba video poker y que era del tipo jacks or better, despues de tanto perder en las video slot me decidi a probar una de estas video poker, con mucha atencion me aprendi la tabla de pagos la cual es casi igual al ranking de manos, le pedi al despachador que me agregara algunos creditos a la maquina y finalmente juegue mi primera mano de poker, por alguna razon previa yo sabia que habian 52 cartas en el mazo, y automaticamente empeze a calcular las probabilidades de acertar las cartas necesarias para armas las manos que pagaban, muchos años despues me entere que a eso se le denominaba contar outs, y la verdad es que tuve mucha suerte ya que casi siempre ganaba algo,y hasta llegue a pensar que podia ganarle a estas maquinas al largo plazo, claro que años despues supe que todos este tipo de video juegos son -ev, pero esto es otra historia.

My first encounter with poker was many years ago when i traveled frequently by work questions, in those long trips of course is necessary to stop to buy gas, in these sites you always find restaurants and bars where in almost all they have video slot machines, which i liked much and usually i left a slice of money in each one of them, aside from the 2 or 3 machines of video slot there was also a pinball type machine but this was different with many holes in which each hole paid a certain amount or something like that, the truth is it never called my attention, and finally there was one last machine that were called video poker,it was of the type jacks or better,after of much losing in the video slot i decide to prove one of these video poker, with much attention i learned the table of payments which is almost equal to the ranking of hands, so i ask to the dispatcher that finally added some credits to me and there i was playing my first hand of video poker, for some previous reason i knew that there was 52 cards in the deck, and automatic i start to calculate the probabilities of hitting the cards i need to made the pay table hands , many years after i finds out that this was denominated counting outs , and the truth is that i had much luck since gained something almost always, and until i get to think that i could beat this machines in the long term, of curse that years after i knew that all this type of video games are - ev,but this is another history.
