Firing the Second Bullet - Greg Mueller

In No-Limit Hold 'em, one of the trickiest and, sometimes, scariest situations occurs when you bluff at a pot on the flop and get called. The turn brings a blank and you're left with a big decision: Do I fire a second bullet and continue with the bluff?Recently, while playing in the World Poker Tour event at The Mirage, an opponent launched a double-barrel bluff against me, and he got me to lay down the best hand. It was early in the tournament and...

For this tip, I'd like to go further down the road and talk about fourth street.When playing Stud, fourth street is the last of the smaller betting rounds.

Pacific Poker Network Is Silently Emptying Idle Accounts

The other day, I logged into my Lucky Ace Poker account. I had $25 in there and when I logged in I only had $5. And there is no transaction history at Lucky Ace so I contacted their support. They said since I haven't used my account in 6 months, I have to pay an "administration fee at a rate of 10% of the balance in the account" every month until I log back in. And that I agreed to this in their terms like they expect every player to read the fine print.. At the end of the email, it said this: "David, at LuckyAcePoker.com, we believe in a warm...

Big stack behind finds queens and gets quad queens by the river. Second one, I picked up tens and was going to raise to ~200 but decide on just calling and try to hit another 10. Dealer raises to 150, folded to me and I should have raised to ~550 but decided to call. Flop, check called and check raised all in on turn. He called and hit his flush.

ESPN is out with their new body Issue Magazine. In it, Daniel Negreanu, Phil Hellmuth, Scotty Nguyen and Jen Harman playing some cards, naked!Its pretty funny that Negreanu is wearing his Pokerstars patch covering one of his nipples.

Greg 'FBT' Mueller - Finding Your Inner Maniac

A couple of years ago, I was wandering a Vegas poker room after busting out of a tournament. I was looking to play a No-Limit ring game, but the higher stakes games had long waiting lists. I decided to take an open seat in a $2-$5 game.When I sat down, I did a quick assessment of the table. There were a bunch of young guys -- I guessed they were in town for some college road trip. The others were retirement age. All seemed very concerned about the...

Beware the Min Raise - Phil Gordon

Say you're playing in a low-stakes ring game. The blinds are $.50 and $1, and it's folded to you in middle position. You find a nice hand - pocket Tens - and bring it in for a standard raise of three times the big blind. It's folded around to a player in late position, who re-raises the minimum amount, making it $5 to go.I've seen this sort of play repeatedly in the past few months while researching my next No-Limit Hold 'em book by playing in low-stakes...
