Not quite sure what these Swedish actors are saying but this is a very funny visual tv ad for Unibet Poker. Poker in Sweden is huge and has swept the tiny nation by storm. The Swedish government regulates online poker and gambling and this proved to be a great move as millions are being generated for the Swedish economy.

Our very own Max Shapiro starred in a skit in National Lampoons Strip Poker when partner Barbara Enright was employed to teach the girl's how to play Texas Holdem poker for the movie. Two weeks of semi naked babes and they decided to put Max to work instead of lollygagging at boobies all day. So here he is in his cameo!

The check raise is often overused by poker players trying to maximize the pot and this minimizes the deceptive effect of the move. A check raise is often used in early position in Texas Hold'em and as a slow play technique. Check raising when an opponent has put a bet in before you is the most dangerous and strongest of all bluffs. In this movie is a perfect situation where a check raise against the super aggressive Scotty Nguyen by Michael Mizrachi with a low pair pays off with masterful play.

In this video is a hand in which Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi plays a 3 deuce suited against Scotty Nguyen. Now, in many people's eyes this would seem to be a dumb play but serves as a perfect illustration of how to play against super aggressive poker players.
A super aggressive poker player is a difficult propositon at the table because they are so very difficult to get a read on and this is the best way to play them. They are out to steal a lot of chips but at the least expense so you need to play them at their own game and make every confrontation as expensive as possible. Quite simply, this video shows why Michael was the 2007 No. 1 poker player in the world.

We had the great pleasure of interviewing the following day of Marsha's interview at the Crown Towers in Melbourne, Kenna James, very affable and with a great sense of humour to boot. If you last until the end you will hear us singing Abba's "The Winner Takes It All".
Talented columnist, poker player, commentator, tournament organiser and over 40 final tables under his belt and millions in prize money, Kenna is rightfully regarded as one of the top poker players in the world today.

High Stakes Poker
High stakes poker featuring Daniel Negreanu, Doyle Brunson, Gus Hansen, Barry Greenstein and Antonio Asfandari at The Palms in Las Vegas. This is one great poker video with some amusing banter at the table and I have had the pleasure of meeting all of these great poker players while collecting interviews for my Poker Podcast site. I am not at a level to play any of them though!
