Hi,
I’m wondering if you know what percentage of tournaments play with an ante. Do you have any idea on this? Well, I basically know that WPT uses antes, does this mean WSOP also uses such?

Hello,
I’m here now as I would like to ask two questions. I hope you have extra time.
Do you think it is possible to let someone in into the game though it’s already late? Say the game is a home texas holdem game with additional buy-ins allowed.
Say you bet more than ... Click to read more

For some time now, I’ve been playing 10 player tournaments for about £10-20 entry fee. Well, most of the time I can make it to the last 3, but at times just at the 7th place. I must admit, when I’m already in the last 4 or 5, I’m confident ... Click to read more

For about a month now, I’ve been playing no-limit holdem. Most of the time I play online.

Hello,
Just 3 months ago, I started playing poker. First, I tried my luck in NL and then next in Limit. My first experience online was with William Hill here in the UK at the £1/2 tables. I believe I’ve played well.
