Along with Cigar smoking poker is another thing I picked up earlier this year and it seems to be eating my money faster than filling my humidor...there sure is a big learning curve. Anyway I was wondering how many of you out there play poker too? Any great stories about huge wins or bad beats to share would be nice, and also what is your favorite victory cigar, and on the other hand what is your favorite cigar to sulk with

I absolutely love to play texas hold'em. I am playing right now online. I have been playing poker in general for about fifteen years and texas hold'em for about 6 years. There is no other game like hold'em. I have seen so many bad beats playing online. Most I've ever won was about $500 in a tournament. But the amount of money I've lost over the years is sick. I've probably lost a few thousand dollars over the past 4 years. I chalk it all up to some great experience and maybe one day I'll win a big one. Or not. Either way I've had a heck of a time playing poker online and with friends. My favorite victory cigar is strong, delicious and expensive. My favorite cigar to sulk with, regardless of brand and price, always tastes a litter bitter.

correction- a little bittle, or I mean a little bitter

Hold 'em is a helluva game, I'm addicted to playing online, and its nice now that people play more seriously online. I remember a couple years ago playing online and half of the people playing were a bunch of jokers who had no clue what they were doing and I didn't find it very enjoyable at all. It doesn't take much skill to go All In before the flop and hope the cards work, but when I play against someone who can really slow-play a hand and not let on what they have, it gets me excited to see people using more skill than dumb luck.
