Pool, Poker, & Pain - What do people think



A new sport reality show may be coming soon which is Pool. Poker, and Pain at Poker Monkey we want to know what the fans of all sports think about this new competition and sport. They have been actively looking for sponsors as well as investors it sounds like an interesting concept of playing all three sports which is billiards 9 ball pool, texas holdem poker tournament, and MMA Mixed Martial Arts match. CAN THIS BE DONE?

Perfect Poker Gift for the holidays

A great way to get friends and family to play poker or to help your current poker playing friends is to give a good poker DVD to learn the basics or learn advanced poker play. Not all poker is won with the best hand, actually the best poker hand to play is the one that never sees your cards.

A poker DVD can really change a persons outlook on the largest gambling game in the United States. Most people think that Texas Hold em Poker is just gambling but if they see the tactics and strategies this may change their mind. In fact a supreme court in Atlanta GA was proven wrong by a couple of poker pros that Texas Hold'em is gambling by proving that you can win at poker by play.

Poker DVD's to Learn From


Can You Learn From Poker DVD's?
The answer is yes!
You can always learn something from the Pros but most Poker Playing DVD's include at least 30 minutes of how to play the game of poker and then another 30 minutes of "make sure you are folding 90% of the time". And then they go into strategy, but allot of the time its god to get a series of Poker DVDs from one person such as Howard Letterer learning poker video set or the one here in the image which is Phil Helmuth's Poker Playing 6 DVD set because the first DVD starts with the basics and then each one get more and more advanced.
Once you have mastered a set always try to find another set of DVD's from a Pro Poker Player who has a completely different style. One of the best ones that can really improve your game is the Phil Gordon Final Table DVD which is him speaking about what he was thinking at the final table when he won the final table at the WSOP he explains why he bluffed, why he raised, and why he won. Going from Phil Hellmuth or Howard Lederer to Phil Gordon really was a 180 degrees of talent and strategy but if you learn both now you have become versatile and ready to play at any Poker competitive level assuming you learned everything.
