The Wall Street Journal on Internet Poker


WARNING: NO ASIAN WOMEN IN THIS POST.

Since this is the most major development in a multi-billion fradulent industry it's not a huge surprise that the Journal has picked up on the story. Still stinging from the shaving cream pie attack thwarted by his hot Asian wife, Rupert Murdoch, easily the most credible man on the planet has made sure to make the Journal have an article on this development. Rumor has it that after bad beats on two consecutive hands Rupert (are there two p's in that?) set his bowl of oatmeal down, pet the cat that nobody had the heart to tell him died two weeks ago and went to sleep.

What Rupie/Ruppie realizes that the rest of us have long ago forgotten is that saving those last 5 chips could be a potential game breaker. Go all in every hand 20 consecutive hands, win every one. Completely statiscally reasonable. Then you can sit out for five hands while a new bowl of oatmeal warms and get crushed when your aces are beaten by 72 off suit and you can call it a night.

Seriously, "people". What kind of a mentality gets involved in a big hand and doesn't go all in with your last five chips? Too distracted by TV? Low grade moron? Can't be that - Rupeadupe is woth billions.

Oh - AI that isn't used to someone folding a billion hands like me and making it to the final table to see the event.
