Poker Chips
Whether you use pennies, dollars or buttons to bet with at home, the real thing cannot be beat. Real poker chips have a certain "feel." Today, most poker chips are made of a durable composite or plastic. Plastic chips tend to be more slippery than the composites and therefore are harder to handle.
Chips come in a variety of colors and patterns. You may note that the designs and 'edge spots' on card room chips vary. This is for security reasons. However, the poker industry generally uses these traditional values and colors:
* $1 White
* $5 Red

If anyone has any questions or advice please feel free to email me at anytime. Good luck to all of you on your road to accomplisment and remember we are all winners!!!
Since no one is monitering these blogs now can we have all the old ace king pro vids re posted while the site is still alive
Well I took most of the afternoon off and in hindsight, ive been playing bad poker in frustration at getting no hands. Its just part of poker that you are going to have days on d bounce where you get no cards what so ever, the secrete is not losing too much money on those days. A day when you get no cards and end down $10 is much better than a day when u get no cards and u end down $40.
Well im down $55 in two days because I just have not hit a single hand! Its hard to figure out what the point is in all this hard work when u see hand after hand go against you for days on end! I havent had a run of big wins in weeks, its so much hard work considering, its just crazy!!
Been playing for a few hours this evening and I can honestly say I havent hit a single decent hand, it must be some kind of record?
