An Iowa man has found his living playing our beloved game of poker. I tend not to write much about these types of stories, but sometimes it’s good to have that positive motivation to know that anyone with some poker skill and dedication has a chance of hitting the felt’s big league. Marcus Steinhauer of Sioux City, Iowa said he started playing cards at the tender age of 14. The now 20-something graduated from Western Iowa Tech Community College and then decided to make the leap into professional poker. “A lot of people think poker is a game only their dad’s play,” said Steinhauer, “yet it’s the young guys who are moving up in the ranks,” a trend all too noticeable especially in online poker. Steinhauer hooked up with San Ramos, a California based rounders network that helps poker players find local games. Steinhauer, after showing his prowess with the slick backs is working fro San Ramos on salary, maintaining their blog as well as their twitter and facebook accounts. As a perk, the Rounders network pays for Steinhauer’s travel and entry fees into various poker tournaments and poker related events. He’s hoping to eventually make a name for himself by playing through the rounder’s network across the country. When asked what separates an amateur from a pro he said simply, “confidence.” “That’s what it takes to play at the table with the like of Phil Ivey…I’m not there yet, but I will be soon,” promises the 20-something Midwesterner. Playing sometimes as much as 13 hours a day, Steinhauer insists that this is what it takes to get to that competitive level that the pros are at. And for him, the game is just a stepping stone for his future plans. He plans to one day own a chain of hotels. And if he hits it big playing poker, that might be just the capital he needs to realize his ambitions.

Nothing could make your kid happier than the perfect party, and one of the keys to doing that is to choose the best children’s party supplies. Your choices are endless in this category, ranging from well loved favorites to the newest trends, but one thing is for sure – you will never be at a loss for supplies to buy.

Just for the sake of example, let us say that your child is wild about cars – specifically race cars, because you definitely need to be specific when picking children’s party supplies that will suit your child’s fancy. Even from this point, your options are limitless. Possible party favors include matchbox race cars, or even several of them, which can also double as takeaway gifts for the guests. You can get paper plates decorated in race cars, ditto for napkins and cups. If your child is into Nascar specifically, then you could get party supplies depicting his or her favorite car and/or driver. Matchbox cars could go on top of the cake – or you could have the cake itself crafted in the shape of a car.

There are an abundance of car shaped balloons and wall decorations as well, and you will never have trouble finding table clothes or race car inspired invitations. As for party games, you will likely have more trouble choosing just a few than finding them. There are variations of Pin the Tail on the Donkey for one, not to mention any number of other fun games. Also going for you is the fact that race cars are generally bright, exciting, and evocative of extremely fun times, which is sure to influence the theme, the party favors, and the party supplies associated with the big bash.

No matter what kind of theme you are looking for, whether it is ponies or popular Pixar characters, you will never have trouble finding the best children’s party supplies that will give your child’s bash that extra spark and pizzazz.

Four of a kind in poker occurs when a player’s hand contains all four cards of a single rank, such as 7 7 7 7. The fifth card in the hand, known as the kicker, only plays in the event that both players have the same four of a kind, which could only occur if the event that there are wild cards, or if the four of a kind are all on the community board. Two hands with the same four of a kind would then go to showdown based on who has the highest kicker.

Four of a kind beats all forms of poker hands except for straight flushes. In the instance that there are two four of a kinds in the same showdown, the hand whose rank value is higher wins the pot (four fours beats four threes, four threes, beats four deuces, etc.).

Another name for four of a kind is commonly quads.

The probability of being dealt quads in a single hand of poker is roughly 0.024%. Though this is still clearly rare, most regular players likely will make the hand a good number of times in their career. Usually when you do, you can feel the lights turn on inside you, knowing it is almost guaranteed you are going to win the pot.

The recent ban on online poker and gambling in major cities in Russia may turn out to be a brighter side for casinos and poker itself than it was originally intended. The government established some draconian laws outlawing gambling throughout the country, but due to a quirk in Russian law that recognizes poker as a sport and not a game of chance or gambling, has had many savvy game room operators buzzing to refashion their places into poker room, that host solely poker, specifically Texas Hold reports recentpoker.com. And if you check out some of the new sites coming out, you’ll find that Cake has jumped on the band wagon, making some Russian geared sites such as RedStar and Luck3 which has installations both in English and Russian. So it just may seem to look bad for gaming, but in reality the jump in poker revenue will most likely sky rocket. As the people of Russia end up using the law to their advantage despite the governmental intent to shut down the gambling “problem” in Moscow. Just goes to show you, that no matter where in the world you are, online poker players passionate about their game will find a way despite regulations or law to play the game they know and love.

Learning to count outs in poker is one of the most important and fundamental tools in a poker player’s conception of the game. An ‘out’ is defined as the cards required to win the hand, which can vary, obviously, depending on what the other player holds. The general process of assigning an opponent to a range of hands and then building off that assumption, though, makes the idea of counting your outs vital to understanding the value of your hand in relation to the size of the pot.

Counting outs varies fairly widely but here are some examples of out computations. If you think that the only way you can win a poker hand is to make a flush, and you have four to the flush in your hand using the board cards, there are then 9 of the suit left in the deck, giving you nine outs.

If you have a top pair on the board with a low kicker and think your opponent might have that top pair also with a better kicker, you have three of that kicker left in the deck, giving you three outs. If instead of the top pair your opponent has an overpair, and you can then hit either of your hole cards to win, you can hit either of your 3 kickers remaining or one of the other of the cards paired on board, giving you 5 outs.

To compute the percentage of winning, in general on the turn you can multiply your outs by 4 for a rough percentage of your outs to win with two cards to come, and with one to come you can multiply by 2. Thus if on the flop you have 9 outs, you are a 36% chance to win, and if you miss on the turn you are an 18% chance to win, etc.

The Czech investment and construction company Ross Holding has announced plans to build and operate a new brewery in Chotebor near Havlckuv Brod, Radio Praha reported on August 22.The new facility is to bring a yearly output of 10 to 25 thousand hectolitres. It will be the first brewery built from scratch since the establishment of Radegast in the 1970s. If everything goes according to plan, production of the new Czech beer brand should start next summer.Today, there are about 50 industrial breweries and about 70 micro-breweries in the Czech Republic, which altogether produce some 20 million hectolitres of beer a year. Around 400 beer labels are available on the market. However, Roman Stryk, the head of the investment company Ross Holding is sure that there is a gap on the market for the new producer.”We want to produce four to five brands of beer using the traditional Czech method. We don’t want to use the cheap method used by big breweries, which produce so-called Euro-beer. We want to make Czech beer. Our brewer says that it’s a fine beer with a full taste.”The project was originally outlined by an English beer enthusiast called Ian Jeffrey, who had to sell his idea due to health problems. However, he is still involved and is currently discussing the possibility of selling the new Czech brew in his retail chains in Great Britain.”Our brewery has a capacity of 10 to 25 thousand hectolitres a year, which is still in the category of smaller breweries. The investment should be around 40 million crowns. We want to produce special, traditional Czech beer which should primarily target the local market. But we are also holding talks with an English company and we plan to eventually expand into eastern markets as well.”Construction of the new brewery in Chotebor should start in November and the new Czech beer could be available on the market shelves around this time next year. One thing, however, still needs to be resolved – the right name for the new beer brand.

If you have ever heard of the World Series of Poker you might have wondered how and when it actually all began. Officially beginning in 1970, the WSOP actually started off a year or two earlier as “The Texas Gamblers Reunion” pioneered by Tom Moore, owner of the Holiday Casino. At the Texas Gamblers Reunion, three well known poker players, Jimmy Synder, Rudy Wanderone, and Benny Binion battled it on the poker table for the chance to win a huge cash pool. The Texas Gamblers Reunion was technically the first World Series of Poker. However, the next year, Moore declined to host the WSOP again at the Holiday Casino. However, Benny Binion saw Moore’s missed opportunity and capitalized on the chance to broaden the appeal of the WSOP and to expand the recognition around the states.

Finally, in 1973, the WSOP got massive coverage through CBS and they even created a WSOP documentary to air to the general US audience. Of course, with higher publicity, comes higher prize pools and the chance to earn some serious money. That is how the WSOP started. However, the advent of online poker in the future catapulted the popularity of the WSOP and built a community of loyal online poker players and also diehard fans.
