Monday, September 28, 2009 - P0ker H0

Six days and counting. Every day we get closer, I get more and more excited. A few nights ago UltimateBet gave away a free Aruba package to one of my Rounders Radio listeners.  Congrats to ” _MARTY_”, you’re coming to Aruba.  On top of that, you’re coming to Aruba for FREE BABY. Marty won his seat through a free-roll promotion.  He listened to the Ultimate Poker Show 9pm Sunday nights on  http://roundersradio.com/ And now is on his way to Aruba to hang out with Phil, Annie and the rest of us for what I guarantee will be the best week of his life.  Not only will Marty get his 3k for travel and a $5500 main event seat to the Aruba Poker Classic, but also a weeks worth of parties, beaches, great food, non-stop poker/drinking…and the best part of all, the people he will meet. Friends for life…now that’s priceless :) Congrats again Marty cya there.

Last weekend I was in Vegas teaching at the http://www.wsopacademy.com/ with Mark Seif, Paul Wasicka and Joe Navarro. I love to teach along side of these instructors. I get to learn so much at each Academy and it’s so good for my game. Don’t tell these guys but I would do it for free. We are going to be running a new free-roll promotion on Rounders where one of our listeners will win a free trip to attend one of these camps. Do yourself and your game a favor and win this trip. It is the best way to take your game to the next level

A few days  later we had our annual poker bash at my bar here in Madison. It was a blast. Susie Q and Scott brought up their crew from Chicago and Evil Crusher came up from Atlanta, along with 50 more from the area .I want to thank all who came and my bar manager Wendy for making it a great weekend. And congrats to “Momma H0″ for winning the tourney, good job mom!

But when your running bad taking a break is a must.

Annie Duke Celebrity Apprentice, and more Pro stuff!

Friday, January 23, 2009 - P0ker J0

Well hello from the Pro Corner.

Well what a week it has been.  I think I have a few new grey hairs but all in all a good week!

Well UBOC ended and what a great turnout we had.  The pros all had a blast playing in the tournaments – and probably enjoyed it so much more not having a bounty on their heads! I think the UBOC poker leagues really created some friendly competition between the pros and all were gunning for the win!  Great job all around.  When will the next UBOC get here?

Well it’s official – NBC announced Annie Duke as a contestant on Celebrity Apprentice 2 airing on March 1st.  I wonder how the Donald will fair against the feisty and brilliant Annie Duke. Will Annie hear the words “you’re fired” for the first time in her life? Check out NBC on March 1st and follow the excitement.  I’m pretty certain there will be fireworks!

Well how about UB’s own Michael Binger.  In the land down under winning a final table! He went deep into the main event at the Aussie Millions and then went on to capture the title in event 12.  In a marathon final table he came back from being the short stack to take it down.  He takes home AU$123,840 and the coveted Aussie Millions Gold Ring.  Congrats Michael!!

So last week I told you about The Ultimate Poker radio show on Rounders Radio with the great P0ker H0 and Annie Duke.  Well this week I have even better news!  How would you like to find yourself seated at a table in Vegas with Annie and P0ker H0 learning poker strategy from the best of the best?  You guessed it – a seat to the WSOP Academy in Vegas on March 14th and 15th is up for grabs!  All you have to do is listen to The Ultimate Poker Show on Rounders Radio every Sunday and find out what the secret password is in order to get you access to our Rounders Radio $5 tournament on Sunday nights at 10:00 PM EST – and bang – you are half way there! (did that sound like a Bon Jovi song to you??)  Final table any of the $5 Rounders Radio tournaments on Sundays between now and March 8th and you’ll be entered into a freeroll on March 9th where the winner will walk away with a seat to the WSOP Academy AND 1K in cash for travel/accomodation.  Don’t be sad if you don’t win this one – the 2nd through 9th place winners will walk away with a free one month membership to Pro Play Live where you will still get some great hands on training from Annie and P0ker H0!

So speaking of poker strategy – you don’t have to head all the way to Vegas to get it!  Don’t forget about the Ultimate Auctions where you can bid on phone lessons with all of our pros.  Check here for example where you can bid on lessons with any member of our online Team UB – Shawn Rice, Deb34 and P0ker H0.  They have great tips and tricks to share with you so give them a try.  If they try to tell you they are a big deal – just let me know and I’ll knock down their egos a bit!

Here is a testimonial from one of our previous bidders:

“I just wanted to tell you a little about my lesson that I won with Shawn Rice at ultimate auctions.  It was great…My lesson with Mr. Rice brought my poker playing to a new level. Mr. Rice taught me things I would never have read in a poker book. The lesson finished with Mr. Rice giving me his personal email for when I have more questions. How cool is that!!!    _Maui_

Have a great week folks!

Ultimate Poker Show

Saturday, January 17, 2009 - P0ker H0

This last Ultimate Poker Show on Rounders Radio we were lucky enough to have the one and only Mike Matusow as our guest. This is without a doubt the best show we have had so far. I love Mike and how he is so honest about himself and the troubles and successes he has had. Not only that, I truly believe he has one of the greatest poker minds out there. Mike is his own worst enemy and he knows it. It’s amazing what he can accomplish when focused and determined. I really took to heart what he said about playing for the top 3. You will hear most players say, “I play for the win”, which is in fact a good mentality to have, but what Mike said and the way he explained it was so good. It’s very clear you should be playing for top 3, and than playing to win.

How many people out there can feel comfortable telling you how much they have lost sports betting, or blown on drugs, and not feel like you will think less of them. Maybe it’s not that he thinks they wont, he might just not care, but either way I love Mike and his brutal honesty. Everyone has skeletons in their closet and hearing Mike let his out is refreshing. It’s good to know when times are rough, they are rough for others. I’m not saying take pleasure in other people’s misfortune, I’m saying when you mess up, it happens, and move on.

If you missed this great show with Mike Matusow and want to listen to it , you can visit www.roundersradio.com and listen to all the shows weve had in the past. Either way make sure to tune into www.roundersradio.com every Sunday night at 8:00 PM Eastern for “The Ultimate Poker Show” hosted by Annie Duke and myself.
