So you already know that a flush draw on the river is a 1 in 4 proposition. An inside straight draw 1 in 13 and an up and down straight draw 1 in 6. That is just half the story. Remember that poker is only half about your hands, the other half being the hand of your opponent. If you get your straight and your opponent has a flush, you still lose. So pay attention.
Hackers
My Zynga poker account has been hacked for over a million chips. That was a pain because that was my first million. I now have over 25 million on my big account and 2 million on my little account (I know you are not supposed to have 2 accounts, so sue me. lol).
20 million chips
I was 16 million in chips, thereabouts, when I started the day yesterday. Bored at the 4K BB tables, I tried my hand at the next higher table, the 10K BB table. Quickly lost a million before I got my bearings. So I was 15 million, buying in at the 10K BB tables for 120 K each time. Once I got going, I found myself winning (and 10K BB tables means you win/lose a million every half hour or so of play).
Fan page
Get free stuff from Zynga poker fan page. The link is legit and will not ask for your password. I got myself a free Christmas penguin. Limited offer, so hurry.
How to play with pocket pairs
Getting pocket pairs can be real tricky. They look pretty and can be misleading in that it looks stronger than it actually is. One has to remind oneself that a pocket pair, even an AA pocket pair, is still just a pair.
Current chip count
Current chip count hovers from 14.5 million to near 16 million as I am currently playing hold 'em in the 2-4K tables. Have yet to break 16 million barrier though. Losing/winning 1 million a day.
Nice and slow
I recently moved. As a consequence, I had to change internet service providers. For some strange reason, the new ISP is not letting me get inside the shootouts and sit n gos. And so I needed to relearn how to play classic Texas Hold 'Em.
