Things To Do When Bored With Poker #15

Rage Against The Machine Xmas No1

Rage Against The Machine Xmas No1


Amazing scenes with Rage Against The Machine getting to number 1 in the pop charts. If the good people of the UK had followed The Magical Tipster not only did they do some good for society they would have also made some handsome profits which they will no doubt make a contribution to the charity Shelter.

It’s great when you earn money, do good for society and stick it to the ‘man’ . Maybe this should be a regular occurrence when betting on Specials Market, buy the record/make phone call etc on a complete outsider but then place half the amount onto the outsider and make a killing…

The good for society it would kill the reality tv concept stone dead, you would make a shed load of money because the price fluctuations would be enough for punters to jump on board especially the insiders who usually make a killing on these markets and it would really upset the producers of these programs as they would see that the ‘great unwashed’ are gerrymandering their trashy programs. Something of a plan methinks.

The other thing to do when bored with poker is to watch our great leaders getting the script wrong and we start with the ‘Benny Hill’ of politics Mr Silvio Berlusconi. Now Silvio is a bit of a playboy/megalomaniac/hard man of Italian politics who portrays himself as a testosterone fueled demigod  who is above the law and is some sort of superman. However when a mental patient smacked him in the mouth with a statue he stayed in hospital for 4 days with a fractured nose and cracked teeth - so much for the warrior prince!

Werewolf or a woman with PMT

Werewolf or a woman with PMT

A new report from The Medical Journal of Australia confirm my view that full moons mean trouble. In the article they did some research that showed that violence increased and the nature of violence changed when there is a full moon.

This is not new the Roman word for moon is Luna and it is also where the word lunatic comes from ie mad behavior is caused by the moon. Womens pre-menstural tension is also related to the moon which can be a source of grief as many men can tell you.

Landlords of pubs will tell you that the time to get grief is when there is a full moon. Doormen also testify to this and so will gamblers.

Time and time again weird and wonderful behavior accure when playing poker, betting on sporting events. As a rule avoid tempremental animals and dont drink when there is a full moon should be the unwritten law for all gamblers.

Why am I writing this today well in my pursuit to get more money on Rage Against The Machine and being thwarted, I rejected 3 major winning bets. Accrington Stanley to beat Notts County (9/2, 5.5), Joe beating Olly for X Factor (7/4, 2.75) and Ryan Giggs becoming BBC Sportsman of The Year (7/2, 4.5) and I blame the moon, not my stupidity.

This stupidity ‘insight’ led me to play some serious online poker and guess what I lost seriously. Can I blame it on the full moon - you betcha!

Antoine Saout

Antoine Saout

The big event on Saturday is set to start 12 noon (Pacific Time) and I have been given a surprise tip by Magical Tipser - it is Antoine Saout.

He is the 25 year old Frenchman who is the surprise package in this years final and subsequently he is a big price (18/1 on Betfair). As the rank outsider he is expected to be one of the first to be knocked out, however, do not be surprised if he stays in a lot longer than most people think.

Apparently he has been practicing very hard by playing in all sorts of tournaments and seems to have a lot of stamina which is needed for such competition.

James Akenhead - come into the calculations as another big price (15/1) but he is also short stacked and he too will need a miracle, but sometimes miracles do happen.


The Daily Digest #46

The Political Special Edition - in which the UK MP’s take leave of their senses and decide to give themselves a massive pay rise on April Fools Day. Someone has decided to sell the MP’s expenses details for £300,000, and, Barack Obama flies into the UK to save the world.

We at pokerknave.com cannot knock President Obama because we tipped him at 4/5 (1.8) in August 2008 (check out our Twitter account - pokerknave) and he stormed in making the Autumn/Winter 2008 very enjoyable indeed.

The Daily Digest #22

We presents a new and improved version of the Daily Digest. This edition has the video of when snooker player Mark Selby was served a writ by his former manager George Bamby during a match in The Welsh Open live on TV.

There is also a video of fugitive and alleged drugs trafficker Paul Makin having a heart to heart with his wife Laura Makin on The Jeremy Kyle show - a sort of sub-prime Jerry Springer type program.

Finally, there is more stuff of children having babies and the latest news of betting in the £500,000 Maisie ‘Who is the Daddy’ Juvenile Stakes with a major plunge on Alfie Patten who is now 4/6 favourite after being a 3/1 4th favourite.

Quite clearly MT has no idea of what ‘financially’ is just as our hero Alfie hasn’t. Watch this glorious moment of crash tv.
