It has to be the fact how some players just have an eye for reading their opponent and are able to make those tough folds or hero calls that turn out to be correct more often than not. That takes a lot of skill, not to mention a quick, and sharp mind.

I'm fascinated by the amount of players that holler RIGGED every time they lose a hand, which isn't even a bad beat. And it makes me wonder why those players keep playing at the site they think is rigged. Poker is a crazy game with crazy players, and that inclused me. But for me it's not a bad beat, sites not rigged, but it's bad play on my part.

How someone can have such great reading skills to call down with an A high, after their opponent has fired 3 barrels!

For me, the delightful in poker, when you are left alone with the enemy! Many ideas and options on how to dispose of the cards that you have, then you start to think, what cards your opponent? And then, trying to build, move the enemy of thought! What could be more interesting, when trying to get into someone else's head, and to read the opponent's mind !!

I discovered that my great great grandfather and his older brother traveled from Scotland to Halifax as orphans to begin new lives as indentured servants in canada.

probably this. trying to understand the opponent's reaction improves your game and skills because you need to behave accordingly. so it's more for me decision making part interests me a lot because if you have that confidence to know what to do where, then you'll be unbeatable and that chance fascinates me more than anything!

Spent an evening at Fallsview Casino Niagara last week. Walked away from Poker tables with $480 in other peoples money. No always so fortunate in Niagara but its a nice place to visit.

Three or four barkers at tables in Niagara - certain they were working together and that it was a habit. Played cautiously when they were involved and avoided trouble.
