Online Poker Tournament Rankings

I've been learning a lot of chess on www.thechesswebsite.com and really enjoy the game. I was curious if many poker players also play chess.

Sounds like a lot of players here are really good at chess. Guess it's time for me to get to practicing.

So I just played a tournament and am curious if there is a free viewer that I can use to go back and look at all my plays. Any advice would be helpful. I know about pokerxfactor and pokertracker but don't want to pay to use their viewers.

Dude no question, this is a super duper snap FOLD. You don't call off your stack here with A9 os. You have M of almost 4 which is fine. A9 is fine to shove but not call. You are putting your tournament life on HOPEFULLY being 60/40? Naw dude, you wait. You may hear people here say call but as you probably can tell that's why you are going busto in these tournaments.

You gotta lay that down IMO. I think if he shoves for 40BB then he either has like QQ, JJ or AK. You would be a coinflip against one of those. If your stack was half of what it was then super snap call but u are pretty deep behind. Wait for better spot. Too many people overplay AQ, esp when it comes to calling off their chips to large all ins. That's like the most common play with AK deep in tournament...SHOVE. Def don't want to call.

I went on like a crazy huge heater for a few weeks and honestly didn't sleep for a month cause all I could think about was poker. I then would get up next day and watch the tournament again and just see how well (slash how lucky) I really got. started with 27 bucks in br. won back to back 8 180's. br at 750 won two 24 mtt buy in. br at 7K. won 50 mtt buy in. br at 17K. got 1st and 2nd in 24 and 10 buy in. br at 23K You try sleeping after that.

I am just getting into chess and I'm looking for the best way to learn. I just recently found www.thechesswebsite.com that seems to have a lot of good stuff on there and fun puzzles and wanted to know if anyone else had a good site that I could learn from. Thanks in advance.

I almost never posts but since I am a wall street trader I thought I would respond to this post. I also have played poker for the past 5 years so I feel I have experience in both. The main thing you must realize which 95% of people don't is that traders on wall street make more money when the market goes down. So in your post when you have the premise that the market is not in a recession you need to realize that as a trader it's AWESOME that we are in a recession. I don't mean that it's

I so wish that everyone took 5 minutes to write something. If everyone did then it would make a huge difference. Unfortunately 99% of players won't do anything and then spend 100 hours writing posts about how gay it is that internet is banned and they can't get money and that check are bouncing. With that said, I wrote a pretty lengthy post. Not sure who agrees with me or not but this is what I sent to them. "Can you drink a beer when you want to? Can you smoke when you want to? Can
