2009 was a great year of poker. The first thing that jumps at me is the continuing trend of young people so well at live events. The two biggest events of the year were won by 21-year-olds. Yevgeniy Timoshenko captured the World Poker Tour (WPT) World Championship and Joe Cada won the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event. They were the youngest players ever to win the event.

Poker Hall of Fame is the only area in poker that seniors have a great look Vorteil.Ich me point out that two well-known, experienced players high stakes had the best World Series of Poker in 2009. Three bracelets and the best all-around player award went to Jeff Lisandro and poker superstar Phil Ivey has won two bracelets and made the final table of the Main Event. They welcomed these two Jungs.Eine real excitement was created in 2009 by the nose-bleed high stakes games online. It is difficult to swing these guys, the millions of dollars a week going forward. These guys have to say Moxy (a polite way, “balls”), which is difficult to glauben.Es is always exciting on what to look ahead to the poker world. Here are some things that I think will happen in 2010: 1 The youth will continue to dominate the major poker events. I say this because playing the big events at least four or five days, and I think that younger people can handle the long, hard, straight meetings better than the elderly. In general, if endurance plays a role in something that young Fare besser.2. The management of online poker has finally emerged from the gray area. I think the legislation will eventually manifest itself in any way we know if online poker is regulated. If not at the federal level, I believe that individual states, starting with California trying to legislate and regulate Poker.3 online. Other countries in the world are individually regulate online poker, like Italy and France are in the process. For those who do not know, perhaps, are the countries legalizing online poker, but you can only against players from your country to play.

PokerGives. org is the determination of September, “Charity Poker Month”, where most online casinos and sites will hold charity events for PokerGives. org. In my opinion, worthwhile charities receive a huge bonus the entire industry, and poker players, management and casinos should all do more to charitable activities unterstützen.7. Two players can win two WSOP bracelets in 2010, and nobody will win three. I do not know that will be, but I know who I bet you do hatte.8. I fear that the tendency for women to continue on the WPT. You do not get a buy-in of $ 10,000 event or later 2010. There is simply not aggressive enough, they promote women in poker winning a WPT event. Incidentally, I hope I am wrong about this prediction.
