Win a seat at the World Series of Poker like Greg RaymerHundreds of thousands of poker players worldwide dream of winning the World Series of Poker Main Event. Year after year, we’ve watched amateur players like Chris Moneymaker and Greg Raymer take down millions in the WSOP Main Event. So how were these guys able to pony-up the $10,000 entry? The answer; they qualified through World Series of Poker Satellite Tournaments online.

All major online poker sites carry these satellites which cost anywhere from $3-$1000 to enter. But wouldn’t it be twice as incredible to win a seat at the World Series of Poker for FREE?! This is especially true if you have a small bankroll (I don’t care what she told you… size DOES matter). With the growing popularity of poker - online and live, poker sites are doing whatever they can to give you a free shot at WSOP fame and fortune (while wearing their site’s logo of course).

I’ve been busy trying to win my own free seat at the 2008 WSOP, and decided to put together this guide to help you do the same. It’s going to take some dedication and focus to beat the large fields and win a seat, but you can do it. I invite you to check out my 11 ways to win a seat at the World Series of Poker for FREE, so you can secure your spot at the most popular poker tournament in the world.

Gulf Coast Poker Weekly Wrap UpHey guys, welcome to my first ever GCP Weekly Wrap Up. In the past, I’ve tried to do some sort of monthly announcement to sum up different things on the site. Now, I’m trying to add some new content each day while growing the poker forum at the same time. It’s hard enough for me to keep up with!

So the GCP Weekly Wrap Up will allow me to summarize all of my weekly posts and point you to the hot forum topics and discussions. I also want to include a weekly section designed to boost your bankroll. This may be a special tip to maximize your poker earnings, or a special deal like a new poker bonus or freeroll tournament for GCP members only.

Since this is the first post, I will be highlighting a couple of weeks worth of content and discussions. So if you are new to GCP, or haven’t visited in a while, check this article out. I’ll be discussing everything from Guitar Hero addicts to rigged online poker sites. In this week’s Boost Your Bankroll section I’ll share with you how to get $1,700 in online poker bonuses TODAY!

Beginner Casino PokerAlthough this guide is written with Gulf Coast area poker players and poker rooms in mind, much of it applies to all players who are new to casino poker. No matter where you’re from, you should be able to utilize the casino poker tips presented here.

As I consider the poker tips I want to give you by writing this guide, I am taken back to when I was a new poker player. I remember the fear and apprehension associated with playing live poker for the first time.

There are so many things that first-time poker players don’t know about how live casino poker differs from the usual home game, that I felt the need to write this guide. In this guide I’ll share 10 tips to help you have a successful casino poker experience. I hope that as a new poker player you gain some insight and ultimately feel much more comfortable with your casino poker experience.

Epassporte Problems Recently, the online poker community has been concerned about problems with Epassporte, the safest and most popular choice for US poker players to transfer money between poker rooms. As of Friday April 11th, 2008, Epassporte appears to have decided to stop allowing deposits from the US. After increased legal pressure from US officials, Epassporte has effectively said “screw US poker players“. Much in the way that Neteller did in late 2006 after the UIGEA was passed.
