Back to the tournament, hope I come in first.
Wow - read this one, and then read it several more times. what's the costliest hand in online hold'em?
I love this article - Bad Player, Good Cards. Read it carefully, and try to remember the lessons. We all get beat by bad players at times. That's poker!
