Repeating the same thing doesn't make it less true, therefore with no further ado, my words of wisdom: "when playing online poker you should always have either a bonus or rakeback deal associated with your deposit or your account. This will maximize your earnings, increase you bankroll and provide a faster route to higher limits."
For all you tournament players like myself, finding the right bonus for your limit of poker tournament play

It's been a couple of weeks since we started our Fulltilt poker (FTP) SNG and MTT poker bankroll building projects, so we thought it was about time with an update on our progress (or lack of the same).
We were off to a slow start, both being busy with the re-design of the pokerbrb website, but then things cleared up and we were able to put in some hours on the FTP tables.
Here's a quick overview of the tournaments we've played:
Two 3$ MTT's
Two 2$ 180 player SNGs
One 2$ 9 player SNG
Four

When playing online poker you should always have either a bonus or rakeback deal associated with your deposit or your account. This will maximize your earnings, increase you bankroll and provide a faster route to higher limits.
However with more than 357 online poker sites available with their own individual bonus programs, finding the best bonus for your limit and type of play is a daunting task. Fortunately my buddies at WOSB (World

As you may have noticed the activity on our blog has been dwindling lately. Rest assured this is not due to blogging fatigue. Unfortunately there are only 24 hours in a day and since sleeping, working full time as a project leader, working out in the gym, eating and taking care of other life necessities take up roughly 22 hours that only leaves 2 hours for poker related work. Currently much of our poker time is spent re-designing the PokerBRB website to accommodate a freeroll/MTT tournament league.

I recently read this post on Rakewell’s PokerGrump blog where he continues along the track of learning poker from things that don't necessarily have anything to do with poker.
A friend had free tickets for any Regal Cinema feature, so we hit the one at Fiesta Henderson to see "Slumdog Millionaire" today, curious as to why such an apparently unlikely movie racked up 10 Oscar nominations. Well, the reason becomes obvious

Last night I finally had the opportunity to sit down and play a $10+1 6-person SNG on Mansion. It had been the first time since Sunday I got to play, I know not that long between sessions but still long enough for me.
Before a hand could even be played, a player named SHERWHYNOT was already being very belligerent to the other players, that by the sounds of it, he/she just played against in another SNG game. I just ignored him, as I mostly do

An amusing tournament write up from a tournament played at the Dusk Till Dawn poker club's monthly poker festival in Nottingham, UK. I especially liked the last part of Dungbeetles recollection where he sets up a trap for the table bully, only to find....I won't spoil it for you keep reading and you will know why this post made me laugh inside when I read it.

To celebrate our new collaboration on the Poker Bankroll Blog and PokerBRB sites, McTap03 and I have started our own bankroll building SNG and MTT (multi table tournament) project on Full Tilt Poker. Our starting bankroll is 150$ and we will be posting regular updates on our many wins and hopefully fewer losses. It goes without saying that we expect our bankroll to increase significantly in no time.
Here are our rules for bankroll

I recently stumbled upon the step SNG concept through an article I read on a Danish news website. Here a Danish SNG expert, Allan 'Sifosis' Bække, wrote some good tips on winning plays to beat the SNG steps. After investigating the step SNG system in more detail I decided to write a small review about it and include some of Allan 'Sifosis' Bække's tips on how to beat the SNG steps.
After reading about the step SNG concept I came to realize

I'm happy to announce that we have recently finished a project to greatly improve the organization of articles on this blog. If you haven't already noticed it, all category pages listed in the right sidebar now have automatically updated lists of the highest rated articles in that particular category.
This gives you a quick overview of the the most popular poker articles on our blog and perhaps more importantly an opportunity to influence the placement of poker articles on the individual lists
