So,what do you do when your opponent keeps betting and you are on a flush draw after the flop? If the pot odds are right, stick with it but beware if you hit a king high flush, your opponent may be bluffing or she may have the ace high flush. That was just one of the exciting hands played on Poker Pros night at the loft this past Friday night......come join us for our April event, check back here for the dates.

Small but good group last night.......we talked about poker and practiced, checking, folding and raiseing, playing position, counting outs and picking up on tells and general poker etiquette....Jennifer won the tournament, she was lucky with her full houses!

14 players showed up at my friend Todd's house at the beach and only 3 were women but when the tournament was done it was the 3 women in first, second and third place (yours truely)! Is that because we had superior math minds, more patience, suberb intuition or was it that we drank less, didn't care about the cash game to follow, and were LUCKY!

Thanks to Todd for hosting......see you boys when I get back from Vegas!

I have been practicing and playing anywhere and everywhere I can getting ready to live out my dream.....i am going to Vegas to play in the women's event of the 2010 World Series of Poker at the Rio.

I am nervous and really excited.....I am vowing to play tight so I can stay in the tournament then the next minute I have visions of being blinded out because I am paralysed and can't decide what hand to play. Maybe I should be the table…

The beauty of poker is it keeps you thinking all the time......sometimes you are calulating your outs or the pot odds and other times you are reading your opponents or trying to decide if you should take a chance on cards that the experts say are no good.......
