Game Dollars in the Casinos

For the last several years one Saturday of each month some friends and I would get in the car and drive to Atlantic City for a night of gambling, and it has always been one of the best days of the month.
We have never really been big gamblers, we usually just stayed with the slots or the roulette table, until six months ago when someone decided we should learn to play poker because that’s where you can win lots of money fast online casino games.
So we all started playing poker in a weekly Friday night game together until we were good enough to play in the casinos. For practice I would play Online Poker in some free multiplayer poker rooms and eventually I felt confident enough to join an online casino poker room for real money.
At first I was losing hand after hand but the more hands I played the better of an understanding I was getting for the game, and every night I started making less and less mistakes and I actually started to win a few hands.
After about 2 or 3 months of this we decided it was time and we all drove to the casino to play some Poker.
We did ok for first timers, no one got rich but no one came home broke either. We decided that instead of our monthly trips we should start going every Saturday, and soon we would be leaving every Friday after work and coming back late Sunday night
Last month we decided to join this small tournament, the buy inn was only a few hundred each and the prize was 10,000 dollars, so we all decided to go for it and to try to start making real money playing poker, and in the end it paid off, I am still not sure how but I won the poker tournament and the 10,000 dollars grand prize.
Before the tournament we had all agreed that if one of us won it we would go out and have a big party with the money, but I had a much better idea
I decided that I could turn this money into a much larger amount and since it was easy to win the first time it should be easy to do it again.
Now from my personal experience I know that the Roulette table is a great way to double your money fast, there were many nights id have 20 dollars in my poker before leaving the casino and I would manage to double it on one spin of the roulette wheel , and now I had ten thousand dollars and could walk away with twenty thousand in just minutes.
So against the advice of all my friends I looked for a roulette table where the same color had won three times in a row. Once I finally found a roulette table that had come up red 3 times in a row it I put all my winnings on black and what luck it came out red again and I nearly passed out on the casino floor.
Ever since that night I have not won anything I have played. The best piece of advice I can give anyone out there is to not let the winnings go to your head. If you are up in the casino, go home and enjoy the money. It is important to remember that gambling in a casino or an online casino is supposed to be fun and relaxing and if it is not go read a book or something.

Online Casino – Poker Bots

Many gambling chats and news groups devoted to poker more and more frequently anxiously mention the so-called card-playing robots, known as “bots” in the nomenclature of the Web, that are being used on commercial gambling sites. Many players are sure that a number of gambling portals prospers due to the use of the special program, able to beat an above-average player, not mentioning a beginner. In a traditional casino you can always guess the weak sides of your competitor, figure out his strategy and etc, in a virtual gaming house there is no telling your competitor is a human, but not specially created program, “substituted” for a real player online casino.
If that is true, then widespread of poker bots capable of beating an average player would pose a significant problem for the poker sector. Without the creation of a special system of verifying the identity and “humanity” of card players in online casinos, the business could be significantly undercut. This is an opinion of players themselves, and gambling figures, interested in further development of the online game industry.
Some skeptics say that, considering the complexity of the game and constantly changing strategies, the creation of a program that can read opponents’ cards using special techniques of screen scanning and responding in real time is many decades away at best. The supporters of this point of view point to the variety of commercial programs that aim to help players, but with no actual effect. However there is a ready answer for all of these objections – in Canadian University of Alberta a computer poker research group has developed an artificially intelligent automaton known as “Vex Bot”. This robot is capable of playing poker at master level in a game with two players. The new system has already been used to test the frontiers of artificial intelligence, as it will be the basis for a commercial poker tutorial program. As soon as the news about robot creation was published in the media, the creators began to receive letters mentioning the danger of system use for the purposes of illegal gambling business.
Darse Billings who is lead designer of “Vex Bot” considers that the probability of the use of bots on commercial sites is approximately 50:50, but he is also sure that all of the modern programs can hardly match his creation, which is a result of a 10 years research work of a team of specialists.
“The strategy of the game is difficult and to sit down and write a program that can beat a table of experienced human players is no trivial task,” Billings said. According to his opinion, the biggest obstacle lies in the amount of information unavailable to the player and the need for the program to be able to employ a variety of strategies at different times, such as bluffing and laying traps for opponents, etc. Exactly for this purpose artificial intelligence was added to the system, capable of not only calculating probabilities but also line up the logic of the game, model it’s opponents behavior, etc.
In the opinion of the creators of “Vex Bot”, its main advantage is that, as well as any other robot; they have no emotions, no fear and no shame and can’t be nervous. He will remain indifferent even before the most aggressive player.
Journalists, studying the problem of poker boats, note that it is very difficult to get the real picture because of the unwillingness of many gambling operators to answer upon requests on this issue. There are no high-quality programs, able to watch suspicious poker sites with the unusual patterns of game
