entertainment, fun game, casino games, elimination blackjack
...
So I played a little bit of
Elimination Blackjack the other day. It was pretty fun. I played at UBT and also UB. They are the same thing but at one site it's only for fun and the other was for real money. Blackjack is still a weird game to me. I've never really read up on all the rules and which is probably why I lose all the time. But since I've played and studied poker so much I prefer it this way. It keeps kind of that exciting feeling knowing you're playing a new game.

big money casinos, blackjack, video poker, mac
...
The study by Harrah's stated that Video Poker and SLots were very popular so we decided to do a review of the best casinos with
Video Poker for Mac users.
Casino on Net (
www.Casinoonnet.com) is still my favorite because they do so much for Mac users. I think it's gotta be the only site out there that strictly devotes a lot of resources to make sure certain things on the Mac work. I also love that the site will find out youre on a Mac and take you to a certain page that has Mac casino games like video poker.
I've played video poker on X box before but never at a casino. That's cool how you can actually win money if you're a skilled player. Some sites will actually payout over 100%. None were Mac compatible but that's why I chose casino on net for my fav.
Later,

Is it just me or is $5,000 hands of BlackJack at
www.Vipcasino.com absolutely off the wall crazy! They've got a special high limit table just for the ballers. I mean holy friggen crap that's insane. Playing $5 hands of BJ is tooo much for me let alone $100, but $5,000 is just absurd and I've seen some people play these
high stakes blackjack online games before.
I was reading an article on John Daly and how he plays a lot of high stakes blackjack online. Actually he mostly plays it at live casinos but I think he mentioned how you could play online just as easy. So I take it that referenced himself as a high stakes BJ player online.
Million dollar swings were nothing to Daly during his prime. The guy would guy up and down 2 or 3 million in a night. Endorsements and contracts supposedly kept him a float because his tournament winnings couldnt cover the $40 million loss he had at the casino. He talked about how if he would just leave in the first hour he played he would be up a lot. But, like all of us he was pretty addicted. For him it was an escape from reality similiar to what golf was to him. He said he could literally forget where he was an all the sudden 10 hours were gone.
Because this subject is quite rare I went through with adding a
High Stakes Blackjack section to our high stakes casino page. Let me know if you have any suggestions.
Ill stick to poker and leave these games for the rich because christ I can't even afford the $1 games anymore.

Played at Full Tilt poker on Mac
Ok I just got finished playing at
Full Tilt Poker on my Mac. As you well know from my previous posts I am very happy with the software.
Aces at Full Tilt Poker
To start the game off I was dealt pocket aces. Can't beat that the first hand. I was playing the $5/10 NL game and busted out first hand. The pot was raised and reraised a ton preflop to the point where I just went all in. There was one play who only had like $300 and he called before the all-in. Another played called my raised for $600. Turns out the sizeable stacked guy had pckt kings and tripped up on the flop. Great way to start off.
Busting Out at Full Tilt Poker
It was all downhill thereafter. Busting out two more times I decided to take a small intermission to gather my thoughts and beat the crap out of my bean bag I have in a room. Going back for more I donked off another $2K building it up to about $5,000. Lovely. Screw it, I went up to the $5,000 NL tables which I never do. Doubled up in about 5 minutes and left.

On Tilt at Full Tilt Poker
I was on major tilt which is why I left. My nerves are terrible these days and I'm not ashamed to admit it. Poker is just a recreational game for me these days not because I was a losing player but because I was wasting away my life playing cards all night.
So I'm back playing the $5/10 tables like usually and hopefully I won't go on tilt anymore then needed.

I've played almost all the sites that work on a Mac and always seem to return to Pacific Poker (
www.Mac-Pacificpoker.com).
Some people say they hate the site because there are some lag issues. Personally I could care less if it takes a couple seconds longer to load. The reason I love the site is all the fish. The players there suck big time.
It's been about 3 years since I first registered an account there and always seem to go back. This may sound stupid but I like the sound effects too.
Full Tilt Mac site isn't bad and the software is nice and all but the players are much better at Full Tilt. I'm not there to look at the graphics. There is one purpose only to play internet poker and that's to make money. Internet poker for Mac users is possible at
Full Tilt Poker with their new program that was designed.
The site is good if you want to play against the pros. I rarely play them as I only play $1-$2000 max tables. But, when they come to those tables it's pretty exciting to play against those internet pros. Actually I have more respect for John Dagostino these days because he plays so well on Full Tilt.
