First and foremost, you need to make sure that you are keeping an eye on the cards.  You definitely want to make sure that you know exactly what has been dealt so that way you might be able to know what is coming up.  This can definitely help you decide whether you are going to raise, call or fold, so keep your eyes glued to those cards and do not let anything break your concentration!

The next thing that you want to do is make sure that you keep your eyes on the people that you are playing with.  This is absolutely the second most important tip, as many people simply do not know how to keep up a poker face.  More tips in the next blog folks!

Now that we have touched base on a few other superstar poker players, let’s give a chat to Greg Raymer!  This guy is from my home state of Michigan and while he might have been a former lawyer, he is actually an incredible poker player now!  He is on the Team Pokerstars with a few other players and he is honestly incredible at his craft!

If you think that the crazy glasses that he wears are nuts, then you should definitely take a look at his aggressive style, because to be honest, he is one of the most aggressive players at the table usually.  His nickname is the Fossilman and the reason for that is because he very, very rarely pulls out and folds.

So if you are sitting in the middle of a game with Greg Raymer, you should be prepared to sit in for the long hull because he is definitely not going to pull out at all!

It has to be said that Thang Luu is definitely hot this year – while this guy has been hot since he first started in poker, nowadays, this guy has been winning everything!  This year alone he actually beat a record field of 918 entries.  In 2008 alone he beat out over 833 players and took home the bracelet and then this year, the number upped and he still took home the bracelet!

Thang Luu is one of those guys that you absolutely have to watch out for whenever you are on a table with him.  The reason for it is because he honestly, does not look like a guy that can wipe the floor with you right?  But he does and he will every single time!  He is a guy that loves to play Omaha 8 and he has had one of the most impressive ones.

So if you are looking for someone to beat, Thang Luu is going to be that person but I wish you good luck – seriously!

Chris Moneymaker – this guy is incredible in every aspect of the word.  Not only has he been playing poker since 2000, but he is actually part of the very exclusive Team Pokerstar.  This guy actually started playing poker after seeing the money Rounders and I think that is pretty freaking cool actually.  He is considered a very reputable tournament player and to be honest, I don’t think that I would want to play against him.

He is by far one of the most skilled players of his time and I think that Chris is going places.  He is aggressive against his opponents and that is the best way to play no matter which way you look at it!  Chris was born and raised in Nashville and no wonder he is so aggressive right?

He has a wife and a daughter and honestly, he’s a family man.  You never would guess it by the way he plays though!  So watch out for Chris Moneymaker!

Scott Montgomery does win over 3 MILLION dollars, but I’m sure he’ll be thinking back about this hand, and about what COULD have happened if that damned six of diamonds did NOT hit the river…

Poker can be a cruel, cruel game. Peter Eastgate ended up winning the Main Event. Good for him.
