gambling poker journal

SongMonk is a livejournal user who writes about poker, sports, TV shows and pop culture. He just posted a long analysis of the World Poker Tour Invitational episode (the one that ended with Layne Flack vs. Jerry Buss):

I think Jerry's best shot would have been to raise more hands pre-flop and to get the money in pre-flop, if possible, with his big hands. Layne would still likely outplay Jerry in having a much better idea of Jerry's hand strength than Jerry would of Layne's, but I think that was his best shot. Hoping to flop a big hand and trapping Layne just wasn't going to happen. Jerry can't outplay Layne after the flop.
There's a definite shortage of blogs about poker. I enjoy reading them much more than, say, rec.gambling.poker which has a noise:signal ratio that's just too high for me. Link
