Novi post Negreanu-a na blog-u, najbolji blog koji čitam. U ovom postu on piše o mestima gde može, odnosno ne može, da se igra poker za velike pare, high limit. On svaki veliki casino opisuje posebno i iznosi svoje utiske i emocije vezano za svaki.
Aria The new kid on the block took an aggressive approach to trying to win over poker players, by offering free food. That didn't last long, though, as many of these poker players are gluttonous vultures who were sure to ruin a good thing by ordering $500 dinners and inviting friends and family to pig out in the Ivey Room. It was one of those "Too good to be true" scenarios that ultimately fails because human nature is to abuse a good thing. As Mr. Anderson from the Matrix points out, the human race is a wasteful bunch!
I remember even later, going broke in a $40-$80 game then running into a friend from Toronto named Zvi. I let him know "they got me" and he loaned me $500 to go back in there. Yes, I know it's beyond insane to play $40-$80 limit hold'em with a $500 bankroll, but those were different times. I turned that $500 into $2500, and a week later played my first ever WSOP bracelet event, the 1998 $2000 Pot Limit Hold'em tournament. It was also my first time playing pot limit, and I ended up... winning the whole dam thing! From $500 to a $169,000 payday in about a week.
