Best Poker Magazine?

#1 7th November 2008, 5:17 PM

I'm a subscriber of Bluff and CardPlayer magazine and consider them pretty good in terms of influencer's and authorities on Poker.

What are you guys getting in the mail?

I have been a Bluff subscriber but am not renewing. I am sickened by the pornographic ads and the articles by pros that glorify hot babes and lots of liquor. I picked up a card player in a casino recently and was delighted to see that ads for the same casinos are not porn laced in that magazine. and that is what I will subscribe to from now on. Bluff thinks sex sells, well, not to me. I think poker players can be moral family men and women

I will pickup a copy of Bluff when I am in the bookstore. But I subscribe to Card Player They seem to have more poker strategry related acticles than Bluff at this time.

I prefer "Poker Player" mag. It's not as glitzy as the others, but it's got like, 10 times the info without the din of the usual rags.

The web version is pretty cool, but the hard copy is excellent. You want to know where a tourney is? Any tourney? This is the one.

You wanna know who the winners and money leaders across all games and venues are? This is the one.

It's hard core, and right to the point.

I like card player, I'm not a subscriber but I just pick up at the casino for free. By the way bluff magazine November issue is "Hot"

Ugh, I wish my local cardroom had free poker magazines. But I myself have been thinking of subscribing to CardPlayer because there is usually the most quality articles online. But every time I go to the bookstore and look at the poker magazines (not just CardPlayer) they turn out to be really shy on good articles, mostly just "fluff" pieces.
