I’m playing the $3,000 buy-in limit hold ‘em tournament today, and so far I’ve seen some strange play that I’m trying to adjust to.

When I came into the Full Tilt suite yesterday, I saw Howard Lederer and Andy Bloch discussing a hand. I sat with them and asked if the hand contained a lesson I might share in this blog.
“Here’s a tip,” Andy started, “don’t call an all in from Howard Lederer when you have bottom pair.”

Erik Seidel has a passion for music. At the poker table, he wears bulbous headphones while a 60-gig iPod sits on the on the table in front of him. I caught up with Erik as he played the early stages of today’s limit hold ‘em tournament. I wanted to know if there was a genre that he felt worked best for this game.

I haven’t cashed in any of the first four events I’ve played. I don’t think I’ve been playing bad poker, though. In the first event I got a lot of chips – worked my stack up to 12,000 – but then I got pretty unlucky in three hands.

So far at the WSOP I’ve cashed in one of thee tournaments I’ve played in. I got my aces cracked early on in yesterday’s short-handed no-limit event and I couldn’t recover from there. But I feel good. I think I’m playing some of the best poker I’ve ever played. Of course, there’s always room to improve, but I’m still very happy with how I’m playing.

As a writer for Full Tilt at this WSOP, I’ve spent a fair amount of time observing the pros as they ply their craft. I also play a bit of poker and I happen to think I’m pretty skilled. But occasionally, while observing the world’s best, I’m reminded of just how much I have to learn. This hand serves as a perfect example.
