| Wong first met Blair Hull back in the ‘70s, when they
happened to be using the same strategies at the same blackjack tables at
Harrah’s Casino in Lake Tahoe. “Blair had the skills and willpower to be
successful,” remembers Wong, who turned down an early opportunity to
enter the options business with Hull (“The stupidest decision I ever
made,” he laments). Wong says that willpower can present the toughest
hurdle—in blackjack and investing—explaining, “If you put out two big
bets and get clobbered, even though the deck is favorable, it’s
difficult to do it again. But if you want to beat the casinos, you have
to do it again.” The number of best casinos trying their hand at real money poker online is growing daily. Even people who live in the poker capital of the world, Los Angeles, play online frequently. They don’t have to drive to the best casinos, they might want to play for just an hour or so late at night, and if they have some bad live “tells” they might not give the same information away online. Despite this, I don’t think the brick and mortar best casinos should be concerned with online poker’s growth: quite the opposite, in fact. I believe that because one’s first trip into an online best casinos is less intimidating than one’s first trip into a brick and mortar best casinos, the online rooms are going to develop an entire new generation of beginners who will eventually learn the game and build up enough confidence to go to the brick and mortar best casinos. This will allow poker to expand and grow, allowing best casinos not merely to compete for bigger shares of a finite existing market, but to compete for shares of a growing market. In this way, the poker world will be in exactly the opposite position of horse racing, whose fans tend to be older, and which for many years did nothing to attract young people to the track. Racetrack owners finally woke up and realized that they needed to develop new best casinos for their game, and started the “Go Baby Go” television campaign, but whether that effort was too little too late remains to be seen. Because so many experienced home poker best casinos are venturing into online poker, hardly a day goes by when I don’t get at least one email that says something like, “Do you think online poker rooms are honest? I’m a long-term winner (or break-even player) in home games or when I go to regular best casinos, but my online opponents keep catching miracle cards on me on the end, and my results are impossibly bad for someone of my skill level.” |
