Playing Slot Machines With a Winning Strategy

January 16th, 2010 by admin | No Comments | Filed in sports

Most people play slot machines hoping to hit it lucky with a winning streak that pays big. There is also the pure entertainment value of playing the slots. While it would be great if there was a strategy that could make you a long term winner at slots, the truth is, there is really no such thing. But if you want to have fun playing slots for as long as possible, there are a few mostly common sense things to keep in mind.

First, be sure that you understand what you are doing when you play slot machines. Know what the pay tables are and what it takes to be eligible to win a jackpot or bonus before you put any coins into a machine. If you play fairly often, you can join the slots club at the location where you play. It is free to join and members get benefits like free meals, discounts on hotel rooms or even free rooms, and sometimes cash back.

Perhaps the most important rule of thumb when playing slots or any game of chance for that matter is only play with disposable income – that is, money that you can afford to lose. Be sure that you are rested and alert while you are playing, and don’t play for a long period of time without a break. If you are tired, you are more likely to make a costly mistake.

It is a good idea to decide in advance how much you will spend on slots during an entire day or trip. Divide your bankroll into equal amounts and play that many sessions without going over the allotted amount during any one period of play. For example, if you decide to play four sessions, stop if you have used up one fourth of your bankroll during any one session. Take a break and do something else for a while. If you win, you may decide to keep playing or to pocket the winnings for now.

If you want to be able to play for a long time, make sure you choose a machine that does not penalize you for playing less than the maximum number of coins. That way, you can play one coin at a time and prolong your playing time on a set bankroll. This goes against the advice you may see to always play the maximum number of coins, but it is the strategy to use if you want to maximize your playing time. On the other hand, if you are playing progressive slots with the hope of hitting the jackpot, you have to play the maximum number of coins in order to be eligible for the big prize. Don’t play on a progressive slot machine if you only want to play one coin at a time.

Remember that slot machines are intended to be fun and entertaining. It can be exciting to win the jackpot, but the primary goal of playing slots should always be to have fun without losing your shirt!

How hot are Nintendo Wii Games? Well, if you don’t have the Wii, you are just part of them.

Piano Playing Tips - How To Play Piano By Ear

December 26th, 2009 by admin | No Comments | Filed in sports

Most piano students receive some ear training at their piano lessons, but it is done away from the instrument. Unfortunately this theoretical training has very little practical use for learning how to play piano by ear. To take music making to an advanced level, musicians need to be able to play what they hear in their heads at the piano, and without looking at the keys!


Often, players want to learn how to play piano by ear, but they don’t know where to start. Here are some ways musicians can practice so that they will know how to play piano by ear:


Play with other musicians as often as possible.


Making music with others encourages new ways of playing and listening to music. Playing from printed scores or lead sheets is usually necessary, but in a group everyone has to learn to listen to the other players. Slowly, the brain’s analytic hold on music making lets go, and the ear will take over.


Practice familiar pieces with eyes closed.


Musicians need to let go of the need to watch printed music if they are going to play piano by ear. It takes practice, but once a piece can can be played through with eyes closed, new ways of playing are discovered. There will be an extra layer of security when performing: an aural image of the piece will drive the performance.


Play along with recorded music without using a score.


Play a recording of an easy tune and play along. At first finding notes will be difficult, and can feel strange. Slowly, more of the notes will be found. This will take at at least six months to see big improvements, but is very worthwhile.


Sit down and create original music spontaneously.


Take a break from practicing and play for fun! Play a memorized piece or create an improvisation. The ear will continue to develop whenever the printed score is put away!


Test your ear with a friend.


Turn away from the piano and have someone play a note. Try to play the exact note played.

Develop an aural image of the note’s pitch in your head. Keep practicing this exercise, trying to reach for the note as it is heard. Slowly, this will become instinctual with practice. This is very useful for playing large leaps accurately. If a player can find the correct notes without looking at the keys, their playing will be much more secure.


Participate in group sessions.


Many musicians hold open sessions and welcome players to join in. This is intimidating for some players. If this is new, they can start by just listening in. Experienced players will often help other players, and are available for private lessons. For the best lessons to learn how to play piano by ear, find a teacher that will teach by example - jamming - without using printed scores.


To learn to play by ear, a musician needs to practice ear training at the piano so that the ear takes over.

As a players becomes more comfortable playing piano by ear, new musical worlds open up! Their playing becomes easier, more enjoyable, and all aspects of their musicianship improve.

Don’t spend $50 every month for the gym. For that price, you can get incredible fitness equipment at your house!

PianoJournal.com is a resource site for piano players, with articles and videos of piano playing tips, including how to play piano by ear.

The Unbelievers Playing Game in the Sacred Books

November 7th, 2009 by admin | No Comments | Filed in sports

Before dealing with the topic of the PLAY in Quran versus Bible versus sciences, it is mandatory to remember that the total words in the Bible are 788,280 while the total words in the Quran are 77,473. It follows that, the Bible is more than 10 times the Quran word-wise. The PLAY is mentioned 45 times in the Bible (KJV) and 19 times in the Quran, i.e. the Bible mentions the PLAY more than two times as does the Quran. In other words, the Bible has the potential of more than 10 times (word-wise) and more than twice (subject-wise) than the Quran to talk about the PLAY.

In this series, the topic of the Play is classified into six parts, herein is the fourth part, which is the Unbelievers and Play

The Unbelievers and Play in the Bible:

Upon talking about the play in 45 verses, the Bible never mention the Unbelievers in these 45 verses.

======

The Unbelievers and Play in the Quran:

Upon talking about the play in 19 verses, the Quran mentions the Unbelievers in 10 out of these 19 verses.

Herein, you will find four different translations of the verses.

—–

A Question to start with:

Allah says that: Did you think that We had created you only for play, and that you would never be returned to Us? ‘

Surah: 23, Verse: 115

QARIB: did you think that we had created you only for play, and that you would never be returned to us? ‘

SHAKIR: what! did you then think that we had created you in vain and that you shall not be returned to us?

PICKTHAL: deemed ye then that we had created you for naught, and that ye would not be returned unto us?

YUSUFALI: “did ye then think that we had created you in jest, and that ye would not be brought back to us (for account)?”

——-

How do the Unbelievers think?

1) They are in doubt

Surah: 44, Verse: 9

QARIB: yet they are in doubt, playing.

SHAKIR: nay, they are in doubt, they sport

PICKTHAL: nay, but they play in doubt.

YUSUFALI: yet they play about in doubt.

2) They listen to the message of Allah while they are playing!

Surah: 21, Verse: 2

QARIB: no recent revival of the remembrance comes to them from their lord, except that they play with it as they listen

SHAKIR: there comes not to them a new reminder from their lord but they hear it while they sport,

PICKTHAL: never cometh there unto them a new reminder from their lord but they listen to it while they play,

YUSUFALI: never comes (aught) to them of a renewed message from their lord, but they listen to it as in jest,-

3) And they are mocking!

Surah: 9, Verse: 65

QARIB: if you question them, they will say: ‘we were only plunging and playing. ’say: ‘were you mocking Allah, his verses, and his messenger?

SHAKIR: and if you should question them, they would certainly say: we were only idly discoursing and sporting. say: was it at Allah and his communications and his messenger that you mocked?

PICKTHAL: and if thou ask them (o Muhammad) they will say: we did but talk and jest. say: was it at Allah and his revelations and his messenger that ye did scoff?

YUSUFALI: if thou dost question them, they declare (with emphasis): “we were only talking idly and in play.” say: “was it at Allah, and his signs, and his messenger, that ye were mocking?”

Surah: 70, Verse: 42

QARIB: so leave them alone to plunge and play, until they encounter the day which they are promised;

YUSUFALI: so leave them to babble and play (with vanities) until they meet that day of theirs, which they have been promised.

Surah: 6, Verse: 70

QARIB: avoid those who take their religion as playing and an amusement and are seduced by the life of this world. admonish them hereby lest a soul be taken by what it has gained, for it has no guardian or intercessor before Allah, and though it offers every ransom, it shall not be taken from it. those are they who are taken for that which they earned. for them a drink of boiling water, a stern punishment for their disbelief.

SHAKIR: and leave those who have taken their religion for a play and an idle sport, and whom this world’s life has deceived, and remind (them) thereby lest a soul should be given up to destruction for what it has earned; it shall not have besides Allah any guardian nor an intercessor, and if it should seek to give every compensation, it shall not be accepted from it; these are they who shall be given up to destruction for what they earned; they shall have a drink of boiling water and a painful chastisement because they disbelieved

PICKTHAL: and forsake those who take their religion for a pastime and a jest, and whom the life of the world beguileth. remind (mankind) hereby lest a soul be destroyed by what it earneth. it hath beside Allah no protecting ally nor intercessor, and though it offer every compensation it will not be accepted from it. those are they who perish by their own deserts. for them is drink of boiling water and a painful doom, because they disbelieved.

YUSUFALI: leave alone those who take their religion to be mere play and amusement, and are deceived by the life of this world. but proclaim (to them) this (truth): that every soul delivers itself to ruin by its own acts: it will find for itself no protector or intercessor except Allah: if it offered every ransom, (or reparation), none will be accepted: such is (the end of) those who deliver themselves to ruin by their own acts: they will have for drink (only) boiling water, and for punishment, one most grievous: for they persisted in rejecting Allah.

—–

The Unbelievers at the Day of Judgment

Surah: 7, Verse: 51

QARIB: who made their religion an amusement and play, and who were beguiled by their worldly life. ‘ on this day we will forget them as they forgot the meeting of that day; for they denied our verses.

SHAKIR: who take their religion for an idle sport and a play and this life’s world deceives them; so today we forsake them, as they neglected the meeting of this day of theirs and as they denied our communications

PICKTHAL: who took their religion for a sport and pastime, and whom the life of the world beguiled. so this day we have forgotten them even as they forgot the meeting of this their day and as they used to deny our tokens.

YUSUFALI: “such as took their religion to be mere amusement and play, and were deceived by the life of the world.” that day shall we forget them as they forgot the meeting of this day of theirs, and as they were wont to reject our signs.

Surah: 52, Verse: 12-14

QARIB: those who are in plunging, playing.

SHAKIR: those who sport entering into vain discourses

PICKTHAL: who play in talk of grave matters;

YUSUFALI: that play (and paddle) in shallow trifles.

QARIB: on that day when they shall be pitched into the fire of gehenna (hell),

SHAKIR: the day on which they shall be driven away to the fire of hell with violence

PICKTHAL: the day when they are thrust with a (disdainful) thrust, into the fire of hell

YUSUFALI: that day shall they be thrust down to the fire of hell, irresistibly.

QARIB: (it will be said to them): ‘this is the fire which you belied!

PICKTHAL: (and it is said unto them): this is the fire which ye were wont to deny.

YUSUFALI: “this:, it will be said, “is the fire,- which ye were wont to deny!

Allah’s Might is coming either at day and night

N.B. Half of the earth is day and the other half is night!

Surah: 7, Verse: 97-98

QARIB: do the inhabitants of the villages feel secure from our might coming to them at night whilst they sleep?

SHAKIR: what! do the people of the towns then feel secure from our punishment coming to them by night while they sleep?

PICKTHAL: are the people of the townships then secure from the coming of our wrath upon them as a night-raid while they sleep?

YUSUFALI: did the people of the towns feel secure against the coming of our wrath by night while they were asleep?

QARIB: or do the inhabitants of the villages feel secure from our might coming to them in the midmorning while they play?

SHAKIR: what! do the people of the towns feel secure from our punishment coming to them in the morning while they play?

PICKTHAL: or are the people of the townships then secure from the coming of our wrath upon them in the daytime while they play?

YUSUFALI: or else did they feel secure against its coming in broad daylight while they played about (care-free)?

How Confident Must You be to First Start Playing With Real Money Online

October 8th, 2009 by admin | No Comments | Filed in sports

Personally, I’ve yet to give money to an online poker site. However, I have considered it for a while. At Pokerstars, enter the 27-45 person sit&go’s and try to get your play money account up doing that. If you manage to finish in the “money” after a while, and you are able to honestly say you played everyhand the right way and successfully avoided being on tilt, I may make the move, and give them the minimum amount allowed for whatever method you choose to use to send them money.
You must be able to have a basic outline of hands, and quickly be able to decide whether or not to play them, when to raise (i.e. what position you’re in and how much to bet accordingly). The key, in my opinion, to playing with real money is to know what to do and when, and rarely have say afterwards, “I can’t believe I did that!” (Unless you did it intentionally and you knew it was an oddball / wrong move.)
If you know poker, have done your homework on hold’em…play a few not too too many play money sit n go’s, so you don’t pick up bad habits…you might be ready for .01-.02 ring games.
Dont judge your reddiness on your performance in play money. It is very different. I started with just $1 and I play the lowest limit tables and I have won over $17. Again, do not judge how ready you are on how well you play with play money. judge it on how you feel about how you play. You will know if you are ready, and just to test it out, throw a couple of bucks into your account if possible. Remember though, at the lowest and pretty low limit tables, people do play crazy like they do with play money so watch out.
you just need to have the confiedence to play and play for some money that you can afford to lose just incase you come up on the short end of the stick.
You can learn a little bit about how good you are playing w/ play money but real money is a whole different story. But who cares 50 bucks is 50 bucks. For example… You sign up for a $1 hold-em NL tourney friday night @8:00. You make it about 2 hours in and get bounced. Well you just had a good time for 2 hours for 1 freaking dollar, you got about 150 hands of experience risking only one dollar, and hopefully you learned a couple new things you didn’t know before. You can’t play 150 hands in a ring game learning unless your at .02/.04 limit and you still might not be able to.
 think if your serious about poker than your ready to start at penny tables
work your way up to better compitition after that if you find the penny “slots” to boring.
Tourney are fun and so on, but they are just that. With 100-10000 people to beat there is a big chance that atleast 10-20% of them will be better than you. I know it’s chep fun, but it is much more fun busting out guys at the ring tables. So I would say, if you want to make money playing poker, don’t go for tourneys, play ring games instead. You will not get rich this way, but you can make a steady income.
Start off by playing Limit holdem instead of No Limit. Get a feel for playing with real money.
Set goals and keep meticolous records. Log every hour every cent.
Know when to quit. Tomorrow is an other day.
What you really need to think is what am I trying to do when I play for money?
Are you trying to win money or are you trying mainly to have fun or are you trying to get better?
Does the bank roll that you put in mean anything to you or not ie can you afford to lose it and reload without it affecting your financial situation?
Unless you are playing purely to have fun and losing 50-100 will make little odds to you financially - then you need to a certain degree to respect your bankroll. I will say more on this in another post but simply focus on playing games where you have a reasonable chance of making a profit rather than a loss - so play to your strengths and make long odds the exception rather than the rule.
Now how do you know when your ready? - firstly I dont think free limit games are much use at all but tournaments do give you a reasonable chance to play against some quality players in later stages. I would say before you play real money buy a couple of books such as Brunsons super/system. If much of the advice in these books seems familiar to you already then that is a good sign you are ready for money tables also as lots of people follow the advice directly (or third hand via net forums etc) it is good to see where some of your opposition are coming from.
Finally all i will say is at low limits money dont expect the standard to be high - you will meet some class act players but most are awful dont treat them with too much respect.

Buy Christmas Cards early this year.

Make Huge Profits Playing Texas Holdem Online

September 16th, 2009 by admin | No Comments | Filed in sports

It’s very easy to start playing poker online. If you’re not used to playing poker then it’s worth playing for free to get a feel of playing online. Most poker sites will allow you to play with play money, making Texas Holdem a fun game to play without you risking any money.


Once you have downloaded and installed a poker client you will be asked to enter some personal details such as your name. Once registered you’re ready to play. It’s as simple as that!


Playing poker at the play money tables can be fun, however you will notice that most players will stay in until the end of each hand; playing no matter what cards they are holding. Remember that in a game where nobody has anything to lose then people will play carelessly.


Basic Poker Strategy


If you’re new to playing poker, or maybe you have been playing for a while but keep losing then this article will help you to get on track to make huge poker profits.


Keep it simple when you start playing, trying to stick to a complex poker strategy can be difficult and lead you to make expensive mistakes. Maybe you can recall mistakes you have already made at the poker table?


Maybe you have been so focused on your pocket Aces that you missed the obvious straight draw on the board! To avoid missing these obvious mistakes you should invest in buying one of the many Poker Odds Calculators that are available which will alert you to these situations.


Where is the money?


It’s worth staying at the lower limit tables to start with, basically people here don’t know poker odds and will play any cards they have. Don’t believe me? Then simply watch a game at a 1 to 2 dollar table. Most people will be calling and rising, do they all have good cards each round? I doubt it!


People at this level are a lot more like gamblers than seasoned poker players. Sure you will get a few people who know what they are doing, but on the whole it’s easy pickings for you when you have a Poker Odds Calculator giving you the odds! It’s like having a seasoned poker pro on hand to alert you to profit making opportunities.


You don’t have to play many hands, in fact you will be folding a lot of hands, but people at this level simply do not notice or care what you’re doing, they are just playing for the current hand. When you’re playing at a table, just watch what each person is doing and you will soon be able to predict when people have an Ace or a pair etc. it will be just how they are betting.


Now at the higher table limits other people will be watching how you play, but at this level the odds are low that people are watching what you do. This allows you to steam in with a strong drawing hand and get action. Just one hand will pay for a Poker Odds Calculator.


The point I’m making is that at low level limit poker you don’t have to be deceptive, as people are not paying attention and generally they will be playing with the maxim “Any two cards will win” - Sure 72 off suit can win big. The flop could be 772 giving them a full house, but the chances are small and they will be throwing money in the pot, gambling it away. So by using a Poker Odds Calculator you will soon be smiling at your poker bank account as you win pot after pot.


Getting FREE MONEY at the Poker Table


When you start to play for real money, it’s important to build up a healthy bankroll. An excellent way to do this is to exploit the poker websites and the free money that they offer to sign up to them. So make the most of this when you start on the path to poker riches! Remember that you will have bad days as well as good, so a nice cushion of money to fall back on when the cards are against you is essential.


Playing with real money for the first time


Start by playing on the low-limit tables. A lot of poker rooms have tables offering 50 cent tables or less. Remember that it’s best to start playing on limit tables so you don’t risk all your money on one hand.


When starting, only play the top 10 starting hands recommended by your Poker Odds Calculator. The exception to this is when you’re playing on the big-blind. Once you have gained more experience on the table you will then be ready to play a looser game, but to start with play tight! The basic fact is that if you start with a strong starting hand, then the odds of you winning are high.


Playing Poker for a living


Naturally there are pros and cons to playing poker for a living. I’m sure at some point you have dreamed of quitting your day job and then working from home playing poker; setting your own work times and the number of hours you play a week.


Maybe you make a huge amount one week at the poker table, enabling you to take a well earned break for a few months. Just imagine being able to enjoy a two month break in a tropical location and not having to worry asking your boss if you can have the time off. And let’s face it, who can easily take two months off at a time?


Playing poker at a professional level online allows you to do this, although spending two months lying around might be too much for you! I’m sure you will want to be earning again in no time and with on-line poker you will probably be able to hook up again at the hotel with a laptop!


However, it’s not easy becoming a professional poker player. You will require a bankroll as there will be times when the cards just don’t go your way and you will spend nights folding, folding and yet more folding. You will also need a great deal of discipline, sometimes you will itch for some action and will be willing to play absolute rubbish cards. A disciplined poker mind is to only play when required. Sometimes you need to play rubbish cards to confuse your opponents, but you must not just play them because you’re bored.
