The rake is structured in a way where you can win even at the lowest levels and build a bankroll, whereas on other sites this is almost completely impossible it seems. Especially with the leadeRboards, one is able to build a very nice bankroll on the site starting with almost nothing, which is great for poker.”

Indeed it is good for the game and should be commended.poker88 asia

Winning any leaderboard is no mean feat due to the intense grinding required. Arnold has never had an issue with putting in long hours at the poker table.

A Typical Day in the Life of a Grinder

“When you are used to driving a tractor for 16 hours a day, sometimes playing a little poker isn’t so tough!”

A typical leaderboard grinding day for Arnold starts at 7:00 a.m., have a shower, get dressed and check out what games are running. He’ll then commit to playing all day until the games completely break up. He then heads to the gym to blow off some steam, comes home, eats, and relaxes by watching some movies.

“Sometimes, it’s 12-hours of straight poker. If it’s a weekly leaderboard I do this for the first few days and hopefully, gain a good lead. If it’s a daily leaderboard, then it’s over in a single day. I enjoy playing both formats, some players prefer the daily ones more.”

Grinding for a prolonged period of time can be tough mentally and you can sometimes become your own worst enemy. We’ve spoken to leaderboard winners in the past who say it’s difficult to play your best poker when you have other players breathing down your neck and racking up points. There are hurdles to overcome if you want to be a leaderboard winner.

“As far as the biggest hurdles to get over when grinding leaderboards, I would say just try not to tilt as that can quickly ruin your sessions. Also, you may have to play heads-up or short-handed a lot, which can seem intimidating to some players, but it is so much more fun than playing at a full table.” poker88

Run It Once Poker Releases Sit-N-Gos Teaser Trailer

Hard Work Pays Off in the Long Run

Arnold admits that he’s not much of a student of the game in respect of reading books and analyzing hands, he prefers learning on the job, so to speak, gaining experience through playing the game. He has watched some PLO strategy videos by his hero Galfond on the Run It Once training site, which he highly recommends doing if you want to take your game to the next level. To succeed in poker, however, you need to be prepared to work hard.

“I don’t have an end goal in mind, maybe Las Vegas and the Mirage? The great thing about poker is that anyone can learn to win. Anyone can work hard, you just have to put in the work and it pays off in the long run.”

For the time being, Arnold plans to continue grinding the PLO20 and PLO50 cash game leadeRboards, but he doesn’t have any real poker-related goal in mind. If you want to be a leaderboard grinder, Arnold suggests you should also make sure you’re having fun and love playing poker. You should also plan your sleep around the times where the games are busier and don’t be afraid to play short-handed or even heads-up.

It shouldn’t come as a surprise after reading this interview that Arnold is a big fan of Run It Once Poker.

“If you’re considering trying out Run It Once Poker, I highly recommend it. The software is amazing with the dynamic avatars and the games themselves are great. It almost feels like you’re playing live poker. I’ve seen some plays that I haven’t seen since 2008, which is great for poker! It has a very friendly community and you can build a bankroll from the smallest stakes.”

Protecting Your Poker Game: Can You Pass The Card Cheat Quiz?

If you’ve followed my articles thus far or have read my book, Billion Dollar Hollywood Heist, then you know about my history as a card mechanic and poker hustler. Throughout my career playing high-stakes poker in Hollywood, I’ve seen just about every scam that could ever be perpetrated with a deck of playing cards. poker 88

Today, I consult with casinos and individuals who run high-stakes poker games in order to help them protect their players from all sorts of cheating tactics. And while it doesn’t pay nearly as well as running over a game like in the old days, I suppose it’s a respectable side hustle that keeps me close to my love of card manipulation.

Then again, maybe helping detect cheaters is my penance for so many years developing and deploying what I like to call “skills of a misspent youth.”

To truly understand the way cheaters approach rounding games and scamming private games, it’s good to understand some of the basic methods used by traditional card cheats. Even given the vast amount of poker information available today on the internet, it’s surprising how little (truly accurate) information is out there about card cheating.

There are a lot of magicians who teach card manipulation, but few of them have ever used the skills they teach under fire in a live game, and those who truly know what they are talking about are few and far between. The most knowledgeable person on the subject that I know is my dear friend Steve Forte, author of Casino Protection, Poker Protection, and the newly released, Gambling Sleight of Hand – Forte Years of Research, which is a two-volume masterpiece sold for 300 bucks!

When the hold’em craze hit in the early 2000s an interesting thing happened. Poker players began to multiply like never before. Suddenly there were people playing high-stakes hold’em without even knowing how to execute a standard table riffle shuffle, or deal a hand of seven card stud. To me, these players were like children who understood how to ride in a car strapped in the child safety seat, but had no idea how to drive. If you get behind the wheel, you want to know how to control the car right? The same should be the case with poker.

One big aspect that poker players count on is a straight deal. Another thing they count on is the honor and integrity of the man sitting next to them. I always look for and expect the best out of people, but in the immortal words of S.W. Erdnase, author of the 1902 classic, Expert At The Card Table, “Men who play for any considerable amount of money are looking to get the best of it.” And for many of today’s modern era poker players, it’s safe to say, they can go for a ride in the car, but there are few who know how to drive it.

Now, don’t get me wrong… it’s not necessary to learn how to cheat in order to spot a cheater. But in this writer’s humble opinion, knowing the methods of a cheat are just as important as knowing how many outs you have on the river, or whether or not you are being laid the right price to call after a three-bet.

In order to determine whether or not you are well-versed in the ways one can get cheated at the poker table, I have provided you with an introductory card cheater’s assessment. Take the quiz seriously and answer the questions honestly. Otherwise, you’ll just be cheating yourself! HAHA

The answers will be revealed in a video at the end of quiz. The video will also provide tips and examples of ways you can protect your home game, and protect yourself when playing live poker.

I also have autographed copies of Billion Dollar Hollywood Heist now available at my website for those interested in reading the true story behind the biggest poker game in Hollywood history.

Until next time, stay sharp… stay KardSharp!

Houston Curtis, founder of KardSharp.com and author of Billion Dollar Hollywood Heist has lived a successful double life as both a producer and card mechanic for nearly 30 years. His credits include executive producing gambling related TV shows such as The Ultimate Blackjack Tour on CBS, The Aruba Poker Classic on GSN and pioneering the poker instructional DVD genre with titles featuring poker champion Phil Hellmuth.

Barred for life from Las Vegas Golden Nugget for “excessive winning” at blackjack, Houston is one of the world’s most successful card mechanics and sleight-of-hand artists of the modern era. Curtis, who rarely plays in tournaments, won a 2004 Legends of Poker no-limit hold’em championship event besting Scotty Nguyen heads-up at the final table before going on to co-found the elite Hollywood poker ring that inspired Aaron Sorkin’s Academy Award-nominated film Molly’s Game.

Curtis resides in Phoenix, Arizona where in addition to running a production company and independent record label, he is also a private gaming/casino protection consultant to clients across the globe seeking insight into master level card cheating tactics via advanced sleight-of-hand technique.

job posting

 

Behind new jobs numbers are very bad signs for the economy, experts say

Waves of fresh furloughs are poised to hit American workers as companies wake up to the reality that the coronavirus is proving more intractable than they initially thought.

CONSTELLATION BRANDS, INC.

"The 'V-shaped' recovery is a mirage," said Nick Mazing, director of research at data provider Sentieo. "We are seeing a permanent reduction in the size of several sectors in the economy."

While the economy added an estimated 1.4 million jobs in August, according to Friday's government jobs report, the number actually points to a slowdown in the recovery. The total positions added is below the 1.7 million job gains for July, and far below the 4.8 million added in June. job posting

The jobs report is based on a survey that is conducted during the week that includes the 12th of the month — but data that was collected after that period flashed warning signs for some economists.

As of Aug. 17, job openings have plunged nearly 9 percent on online jobs site ZipRecruiter, said Julia Pollak, labor economist for the company.

"The inflection point in job postings is a red-light, break-the-glass, pull-the-parachute-cord moment," she said. "It looks like employment may be flat, or even declining… it's a very bad sign for hiring in September."

"It looks like employment may be flat, or even declining… it's a very bad sign for hiring in September."

Company earnings calls during the second quarter saw a large spike in language around permanent job cuts, Mazing said, with mentions during July and August nearly double those during the financial crisis of 2008.

"The job market broadly is something like a whirlpool, where beneath the surface there are swift cross currents including job loss," said Mark Hamrick, senior economic analyst at Bankrate.

"Many of the recent large company announcements regarding furloughs and job cuts have yet to hit, indicating that the economy continues to face challenges in the months to come," he said. Airlines, in particular, are yet to implement the tens of thousands of layoffs they say will be necessary to rightsize the industry as travel demand remains at record lows.

Nearly half of businesses who have already made coronavirus furloughs or layoffs expect to make further workforce adjustments in the next 12 months, according to a new survey of over 250 human resources managers at a range of company sizes and industries by Randstad RiseSmart, an outsourcing firm.

"We all thought things would have resumed a little closer to normal now," said Dan Davenport, president of Randstad RiseSmart. "A lot of companies are recognizing this is the new normal and this is going to be around for a while."

Several factors may be driving the leaner outlook for employers.

Some companies are seeing demand hasn't sprung back and are making the necessary adjustments. Some are accelerating existing workforce reduction plans. Others are finding that cuts they thought were temporary are actually sustainable, with productivity not falling in direct proportion to reductions in headcount. Other companies have found that remote workers are able to be more productive — with some even working harder, out of fear of losing their jobs.

Companies who spent the spring and summer in constant "wait and see" mode have started ratcheting future expectations downwards and are starting to make adjustments to make sure they stay in business, said Dante DeAntonio, an economist at Moody's Analytics.

"It's taken this long for some companies to sort through the longer-term impacts. Companies that were in a good position in March and April now realize they can't keep all their employees," DeAntonio said. "They're realizing business is not coming back."

There are some targeted bright spots. Truckers, tech, health care, homebuilding, outdoor companies and retail — for e-commerce and order fulfillment — are seeing growth.

But employees who thought they were safe because they survived the first round of layoffs at their company should look sharp.

"Employees should make sure they take stock of the skills they have and match those to the strategic goals of the company, and make their way to parts of the company that are growing rather than cutting," Davenport said.

For those who want to invest in professional development, now even more critical as work from home has cut off some employees from much of the organic learning that would happen in a physical workplace, online training opportunities abound to buff up their skill sets.

"There are definitely a lot more opportunities than ever before. If you want to learn something there is something out there," Davenport said, with accredited universities offering free or low-cost classes online and independent training sites that teach in-demand hard skills.

Melinda Theoc, a 42-year-old mother of three from Orlando, is one of those employees considering shifting her skills from an area of the economy hit hard by the pandemic to one that is seeing growth.

An employee at a department store, she's seen her hours cut to just one day a week, sometimes just for two to four hours.

"I haven't received my unemployment since June," she told NBC News. To take care of her family, she has no choice but to try to get into a new career.

"I'm thinking about just going back to school for some kind of training to get a better job," she said. "Like nursing."
