I've got off to a great start on Full Tilt this week. In the past Full Tilt is a site that I've had my share of bad beats on. This week the level of opposition has been quite soft, certainly a lot softer than Pokerstars. So if you are a small stake NL player looking for a change give Full Tilt a try. They currently have a great $600 bonus on offer for new signups use bonus code "DAZZA".
Big poker news this week is the start of the Man vs Machine poker playoff. Polaris vs. The Unabomber (Phil Laak) and Ali Eslami are going to match up and play 2000 hands against each other.
The Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence is putting up the prize money of $50000. This is not like chess or backgammon that have proven a bot can beat a human. Poker is a game of incomplete information. It's essentially a psychological game with elements of chance as well as mathematics. I think that currently man still has the edge, but with continuing advancements in AI it is only a matter of time before online poker succumbs to the ever looming bot threat.
If you want to catch up with the latest happening in this match up then follow this link.
I've been watching ESPNs coverage of this years WSOP and so far it has been disappointing. There is very little poker shown, the bracelet events are packed into1hour segments. After introductions, and player profiles, there is very little time left for Poker. Hopefully this won't be the case with the main event.
Good luck at the tables all.
