Instead of spending your entire day just trying to generate traffic to your site, you can spend your time on more important things - like developing new products, growing your business, golfing, or whatever else it is that you really want to do. marked cards


Isn't that the whole point of having your own web business ... so you can have more time and freedom to enjoy life and do as you wish? ... I think so!

NOTE: Remember, even if you're only making a 10% profit on your Pop-Under ads you're still doing very well. Mainly because (A) it's all automated and (B) you can generate 1,000,000 visitors to your site just as easily as 1,000!

Less work + more time = SUCCESS!

Lastly, you can see results within hours or days ... not weeks or months. That's very important if you are trying to grow your business fast or simply need to put food on the table TONIGHT!

It does NOT work well for all sites, but if it DOES work YOU'RE SET!

Let me make one thing very clear before we go any further. Yes I do want your business, but not unless Pop-Unders are right for you. I'm not in the business of tricking people into buying things they won't benefit from, and there's no way our sites would be so successful if that was the case. infrared ink

With that being said, Pop-Unders do NOT work well for all types of sites. But as I said above, if it does work for you it could literally make your business an overnight success story - like X10.com which went from relative obscurity to being one of the most visited sites on the entire Internet in barely 6 months. Here's how to tell if Pop-Unders will work for you BEFORE you order ...

Who is Akio Kashiwagi?

Internet online gaming has been a topic in Indian country that has been addressed at nationwide conferences by numerous speakers, attorneys, politicians, commercial gaming companies and NIGA for the last several years. Tribes have sent their council members and department leaders to these events hoping for a clearer understanding of Internet gaming and the ramifications to our tribal nations if or when legislation is passed. After attending these events and hearing the same message from similar entities, most tribal leaders have only developed a further sense of anxiety and confusion regarding how their tribe can compete with the larger commercial gaming companies and existing Internet gaming entities already established globally. Of major concern is the fact that whether the federal government legalizes or individual states legislate online gaming, the tribes will no longer have exclusive gaming rights. This will translate most likely into state gaming commissions regulating a new online gaming industry, within their borders, creating competition for the tribes and infringing on established tribal regulatory jurisdictions. One participant at a recent tribal gaming conference likened it to the Oklahoma land grab in the 1800s—a massive rush to grab “Indian territory.”

Although the overreaching topic of Internet and online gaming, and how it intersects with and appropriately recognizes tribal gaming rights, is far from being resolved anytime soon, the exemption provided under the 2006 UIGEA should be appreciated and explored. In that spirit, Bailey concludes with what seems like an easy concept to embrace: “Tribes can legally game for cash by offering TGN’s server-based online gaming products to their patrons at their brick-and-mortar casinos, hotels or other facilities on Indian lands. There is no reason for any tribe to be left behind. This is the next generation of gaming.”

Mr. Timblerlake plays a Princeton graduate student named Richie Furst who plays highpoker for tuition money and recruits fellow students and professors to bet on poker sites. Soon he accepts a seven-figure salary to work directly for the website operator in Costa Rica, where he finds the company uses software to spy on players' hands and cheat them—and is being investigated by the FBI. Richie plunges into a seedy underworld of bribery, violence, opulent parties and confrontations with law enforcement officials. Mr. Affleck plays the amoral founder of the fictitious company, Midnight-black.com.

We are not concerned about that at all. We're story tellers and we are just trying to tell a story the most compelling way we can. For us this was just a really rich world to set up the story. As poker players, as guys who play online and were burned by what happened, we thought that we should dive into this and create a fictional story that would have some kind of impact. easy cards tricks

How to Play Omaha/8 (High-Low)

The high-low split pot version of Omaha is a fun and exciting game, which we will refer to as Omaha/8. It is typically played as a fixed-limit game, but the pot-limit variety (known by the abbreviation PLO/8) is also popular, particularly online. The format, betting structure, and requirement to use two cards from your initial four hole cards, in conjunction with three cards from the board, is all the same as Omaha high but coupled with the addition of the best high and best low hands splitting the pot. cheat poker

In our lesson on how to play Omaha we outlined that one major difference between Omaha and hold’em was the number of potential hands vying for the pot. In Omaha/8 that number remains constant as each hand still has six possibilities but now some of them are vying for the low end and others for the high. What this translates to is an action packed game with numerous bets and raises and large pots.

Omaha/8 Showdown Rules

Omaha/8 is a split pot game, which means that unless someone scoops the pot it will be split. There are two ways to scoop the entire pot. The first is to have both the best high and low hands. The other way is to possess the best high hand when no hand qualifies for the low.

The High Hand

The high hand in Omaha/8 is the identical to a winning hand in Omaha high. If there is no qualified low hand then the best high hand will win the pot.

Qualifying Low Hand

The rules for a qualifying low hand are as follows:

Players may use any five cards in their hand for the low
A low hand is five unpaired cards, no higher than an eight
Aces are low for the low hand (and high for the high hand)
Flushes and straights do not negatively impact the low hand
Ranking Low Hands

Low hands in Omaha/8 are ranked ‘top down’, from the highest card in the hand. For example ah2s5d6c7s is lower than as2d5c7h8s. This is an example of a “7 low” versus an “8 low”. marked cards

If the highest card is equal in rank then the next highest card is used to determined the lowest hand. This means that ah2s4c5h7s is lower than ah2s5d6c7s because the second highest card among the five is lower. If the second highest card was the same then it would go to the third, fourth, and fifth card respectively. If players share the same low cards then the low half of the pot is split.

The best possible low hand in Omaha/8 is A-2-3-4-5, known as a ‘wheel’. Remember that low hands that are straights and flushes do not disqualify it from being low but, in fact, make it a two way hand and a candidate to scoop. While a Royal flush and a five high straight, called a wheel, would represent the best high and best low hands, the hand you really want at the showdown is a five high straight flush to scoop the pot with the best high and low hands.

Cash Games or Tournament Poker

Sure, we’ve all been seduced by the glamour, fame and money we see every week in the no-limit hold’em tournaments we see on TV. Championship bracelets, screen time and piles of cash can turn anyone’s head. Even though we may see many familiar faces at these final tables, we’re not seeing the many times that those players have finished out of the money, on the bubble or just short of the TV table.

In an earlier piece (‘To Cash or Not to Cash‘), I examined the role that variance plays in the career of a successful tournament player. But what does that tournament player do when he just misses the bright lights of the TV table? Some may drown their sorrows at the bar while others may slink back to their hotels and ask themselves what went wrong. The best ones, the ones that truly make their living at the game, go to the cash game tables. marked cards

On interesting fact that many newcomers to the game may not know is that, before the big tournament boom and the “Moneymaker Effect”, the purpose of poker tournaments was not to offer big events and huge paydays to the everyday player. Instead, the main idea behind poker tournaments was to bring in players for the cash games. In fact, many of the “founding fathers” of the game like Doyle Brunson, Mike Caro and Amarillo Slim Preston did not participate in some of the early World Series of Poker tournaments. Although they know that they could win bracelet after bracelet at will against the smaller fields at that time, they instead feasted on the carcasses of the defeated players who would wander into the cash games.

In the past, most casino hold’em cash games used a limit betting structure. Now, with the explosion in popularity of no-limit hold’em tournaments, players who can’t wait until the next tourney to get their fix can now satisfy their cravings in no-limit cash games. These games have become so prevalent that many card rooms are cutting back or abandoning their traditional $3/$6 or $4/$8 limit games in favor of the more popular (and more lucrative) $1/$2 and $2/$5 no-limit games. No-limit cash games have become so popular that poker author and former WSOP Main Event Champion Dan Harrington has created companion volumes to his famous Harrington on Hold’em tournament strategy guides. His two-book set is called Harrington on Cash Games: How to Win at No-Limit Hold’em Money Games. Many more books, videos and other instructional materials will soon hit the shelves that will focus on the peculiar beast of no-limit hold’em cash games. card cheating

Before you jump into these games, even if you are an experienced no-limit hold’em tournament player, you should be aware of some of the subtle differences between tournament and cash-game environments.

Short Stack vs. Deep Stack

When players start a typical freezeout tournament, each one sits down with an equal number of chips. When you take your seat at a no-limit cash game table, you will see a wide range of stack sizes. Also, when you buy into a tournament, you buy in for a set amount. At a cash game table, you can choose to buy in for any amount between the minimum allowed (typically thirty to fifty times the big blind) and some fraction of the largest stack in play. You get to choose if you would rather start out playing as a short stack and push all-in early in the hand with your best cards, or use more deep-stack techniques such as semi-bluffing and bluff check-raising.

Blue Lenses

I am frequently asked if it would be possible to develop a luminous system with blue glasses for blue-backed cards. The answer is, yes and no! Or better say, no and yes! No, the system would not function like a blue version of the red luminous readers, but yes, it is possible to make a luminous system with blue lenses.infrared marked cards

The blue luminous system would not function exactly like the red system. In other words, one could not hope to place large letters and numbers across the backs of the cards and use the blue lenses to cancel-out blue back designs, like red backs are cancelled-out with red glasses so that all that's left to see would be the luminous marks. In theory, to accomplish that, one would need such dark blue lenses that the whole image would become too dark under normal lighting conditions. In effect, one could hardly see anything through such dark blue lenses without lighting up the card table like a Hollywood film set. Hardly a common practice when the boys get together to play cards.

However, a blue system can be made to work and it is hardly a new invention. I was able to find the first mention of a blue system dating back to 1909, but for some reason it is less known than the red system and almost not talked about. First of all, a blue-lens system may work best with white-border cards. The luminous marks can be painted right on the white edges of the cards either as lines, dots, shaded corners, etc. In theory one could paint over the entire width of the white borders, but a more subtle code would just use thin lines right on the extreme edges of the cards, or on the edges of the printed areas. The rest is self explanatory. Once again, to get desired results one must use a specific blue and a specific luminous ink and even then one should not expect the work to light up like "neon signs". In fact, the work will look much fainter than the marks for the red system.

The system with blue lenses does not actually require the use of blue-backed cards. Once again, the function of the blue filters is not to cancel out the blue-colored back design in order to to reveal hidden marks. In this case the blue lenses are only used to enhance the luminous ink over the white areas. In fact, someone with a sharp eye could use red Bee cards and paint the luminous marks inside some of the white diamonds, instead of painting the borders of white-border cards. If you saw a guy with blue glasses while red cards were in use, would you ever suspect luminous readers?

The marking code described above for the blue system would also work with a red-lens system and blue cards. That may be a better option altogether because the marks would be more subtle and people would be less likely to suspect luminous marks if blue cards were in use. In this case the red glasses would no longer serve as filters to cancel out the red backs, but rather just to enhance the luminous marks; also the ink could be put-on much lighter because the luminous marks would not be overshadowed by a back design. Would a luminous system then work with other colors? Possibly, yes. But any luminous system would probably always have to be limited to over saturated vibrant primary colors.

Black Predators

The most advanced luminous system to date consists of a pair of lenses that appear black to the casual observer. This system is sold under the brand name Black Predators™, which is a name I had come up with myself.

The ink is different from the ink used in the conventional red-lens system, and the technology that makes this system work is also different. Even the most advanced conventional red-lens system works on the principle of color blocking. This is not the case with this system. infrared contact lenses

If you try wearing the Black Predators™ on a sunny day you will discover that some colors look totally different, and some of the colors even fluoresce, when viewed through the lenses, almost as if they were illuminated with a black light at a nightclub. This phenomenon is the exact principle behind the technology that makes this system work. The lenses are capable of shifting the wavelength of light, and when the wavelength shifts, the amplitude of the waves also changes, to compensate for the shift. This is why some of the colors fluoresce under certain illuminations.

In a nutshell, the ink produces marks that are invisible to the human eye. Under proper illumination this ink can be seen through these glasses. The lenses in fact shift the wavelength of the light reflected from the ink marks to fall within the visible range that humans can see.

It should also be noted that this system cannot produce marks that are as strong as the marks produced by the best red-lens system. Although some may see this as a flaw, it is actually a desirable feature. Should anyone grab these glasses and look at the cards, chances are, they would not be able to notice the marks (at least not immediately). This should be considered a security feature, rather than a flaw.

It should also be noted that there is a percentage of people that are unable to use this luminous system. The reason is simply because some people actually suffer from some forms of color blindness. The percentage of people that suffer from one or another form of color blindness is actually higher than most people are aware of. According to various statistics, color blindness is affecting 12% to 20% of male population, and also a tiny fraction of female population. Most people don't even realize that they suffer from some form of color blindness until they take a color vision test.

Playing Cards

In my earlier post, Early 20th Century French Playing Cards, I spoke about some of the characteristics of French playing cards, from the early 20th century. In this post, I would like to describe some of the characteristics of 19th century French cards. The purpose of this post is to share some of the information that I know, to help collectors. Here are a couple of 19th century French decks, from my own collection. marked cards

The basic designs of the cards are the same as the early 20th century decks, known as Portrait Officiel. The most noticeable difference between late 19th century and early 20th century French playing cards is the absence of corner indices, from the decks that were made before the 1890s. The corner indices were actually an American invention that first appeared in the 1870s, but European makers did not start copying the idea right away. So, if you ever see an antique French deck of cards that has corner indices, you can be pretty sure that it does not predate the last decade of the 19th century.luminosu contact lenses

The other important detail is the tax stamp.

The two decks shown in the photograph both have a tax stamp on the ace of clubs. That indicates that these decks were produced in the late 19th century. Earlier French decks had no tax stamps because the cards were printed on watermark paper, which had to be purchased from the government. It should be noted that French decks continued to be printed on watermarked paper even after the introduction of the tax stamp on the ace of clubs.

During that era, French playing card makers didn't print their names on any of the cards. The names of the makers were only printed on the wrappers. Most wrappers got lost, so identifying the makers takes a bit more knowledge. I once stumbled across a French site that described the colors that various makers would use on the court cards, at certain times. The court cards were printed and then colored by hand. A good source of information would be any unused deck of cards that has survived to this day, with its wrapper intact. I happen to own two such decks and will be making a blog post about them at some later time.

In this post, I've described just some of the main characteristics of 19th century French playing cards. Of course, there are a lot more details that I did not mention and I wish to save them for another post. I also happen to own a counterfeit 19th century French deck, that I purchased knowing it was a fake. I will do a separate post about it and describe some additional characteristics of 19th century French cards.
