Learn How to Make Money Freelance Writing for the Casino/Gaming Industry!
Learn how to make money freelance writing for the casino/gaming industry! FREELANCE POKER WRITING: How to Make Money Writing for the Gaming Industry Buy The Complete Version of This Book at Booklocker.com: http://www.booklocker.com/p/books/2570.html?s=pdf Freelance Poker Writing by Brian Konradt 14 PREFACE This book is slightly ahead of its time. Freelance Poker Writing is the first book showing freelance writers how to make money writing for the gaming industry. Why now? Both poker and casino-style games have been growing in popularity — and so has the writing opportunities. If you search for “poker writing” or “legalized game writing” on Google, you won’t come up with much information on how to break into this industry as a freelance writer. This does not mean writing opportunities don’t exist or freelance writers aren’t making money writing about poker and gaming. If you dig long enough, interview the pros in the industry, and research everything about poker and gaming, you will come up with what I came up. And I crammed everything I found into this guide for you. WHAT IS FREELANCE POKER WRITING? There are many popular casino-style games, but nothing matches the growth and popularity of poker and how poker influences society. In writing this book I have focused more on the games and influences of poker than on any other casino-style games. I use the term “poker writing” in this book to mean writing about the games of poker, as well as writing about the influences of poker.

WPT World Championship: Kidpoker Mit Denkwürdiger Hand Ausgeschieden
WPT World Championship: KidPoker mit denkwürdiger Hand ausgeschieden Der dritte Turniertag der WPT World Championsip im Bellagio von Las Vegas hatte es in sich. 188 Spieler waren an die Tische in der Fontana Lounge zurückgekehrt und es ging zunächst darum, die 100 bezahlten Plätze zu erreichen, um sich ein Stück vom insgesamt $ 13.216.250 großen Preispool zu sichern. Das hielt die Spieler allerdings nicht davon ab, von Beginn an viel zu riskieren. In den ersten beiden Levels schrumpfte das Feld auf 132 zusammen und zu den Ausgeschiedenen gehörten unter anderem Dario Minieri, Hevad Khan, Humberto Brenes und Barry Greenstein vom Team PokerStars Pro sowie Doyle Brunson, Dan Harrington, Mike Matusow, Dave Ulliott, Scotty Nguyen, Barny Boatman, Kathy Liebert und später auch der letzte deutsche Spieler Andreas Krause. Daniel Negreanu, der mit 154.600 Chips in den Tag gestartet war, erlebte ein unglaubliches Auf und Ab. Den Großteil seines Stacks büßte er mit Pocketqueens ein, nachdem die Chips vor dem Flop in die Mitte wanderten und sein Gegner im Showdown [King of clubs] [King of hearts] umdrehte. 35.000 blieben dem Team-PokerStars-Pro noch, doch er schaffte es tatsächlich, diesen Stapel im weiteren Verlauf wieder auf 200.000 aufzubauen und die Moneybubble sicher zu überstehen. Die letztlich entscheidende Hand wird dem Kanadier aber noch lange in Erinnerung bleiben. Gleich vier Spieler sahen den Flop mit [Ten of hearts] [Nine of diamonds] [Four of hearts] und Brian Rast feuerte 65.000 in die Mitte. Beeindrucken konnte er seine Gegner damit aber nicht, im Gegenteil: Negreanu ging mit 189.000 all-in, gefolgt von Dino French mit 195.000 und Saifuddin Ahmad mit ungefähr 290.000 in Chips.

CEFR Illustrative Tasks: Reading
CEFR Illustrative Tasks: Reading Level: A2/B1/B2 Providing Institution: Choose the best alternative for each item. Shuffle up and deal Pinpointing a precise moment when the world changes is never easy, even in retrospect. Yet it is possible to say with relative confidence that the world of gambling was changed dramatically by an event around a green felt table at Binion’s Horseshoe in Las Vegas on May 23rd, 2003, the final day of that year’s World Series of Poker (WSOP). The hand immediately preceding the final table – the last nine of the tournament’s 839 competitors who would play for $2.5m – pitted Phil Ivey, one of the sharpest and most ruthless players of his time, against Chris Moneymaker, an unknown 27-year-old accountant from Nashville. The newcomer eliminated Mr Ivey thanks to a lucky draw on the last card dealt. Mr Ivey, a stone-faced old-school player, declined to shake hands. Mr Moneymaker went on to win the tournament. His victory created what came to be called “the Moneymaker effect”: interest in poker soared. Suddenly spending time playing a game on a computer looked like a road to riches. And those riches seemed attainable. The stars in poker, unlike those in professional sport, look very much like the spectators; they just happen to be more successful. In the years since Mr Moneymaker’s victory, the tournament has variously been won by a patent lawyer, a Hollywood agent and a 21-year-old professional poker player. It is not just professional poker that has changed out of all recognition in the past decade, but all forms of gambling worldwide.

WSOP 2008: Zusammenfassung Der Events #36 Bis #38
WSOP 2008: Zusammenfassung der Events #36 bis #38 Event #36: USD 1.500 No-Limit Hold’em, Tag zwei Beim mittlerweile vierten USD 1.500-No-Limit-Hold’em-Event waren die 187 Spieler für Tag zwei bereits im Geld und diesmal waren auch noch ein paar bekanntere Namen vertreten, wie beispielsweise Team-PokerStars-Pro Luca Pagano, Freddy Deeb, Aaron Kanter, Danny Wong, Isaac Haxton oder Dag Martin Mikkelsen. Ganz nach vorn reichte es für die meisten von ihnen allerdings nicht. Luca Pagano schied auf Platz 149 aus, Mikkelsen wurde 138. (beide kassierten USD 3.340), Freddy Deeb 80. (USD 6.012) und Isaac Haxton erwischte es auf Rang 66 (USD 7.014). Kanter und Wong werden wir dagegen am Final Table wiedersehen. 2005 bekam Aaron Kanter den Spitznamen „The Big Killer“ verpasst. Er spielte damals einen sensationellen Main Event und bugsierte unter anderem Titelverteidiger Greg Raymer sowie Phil Ivey aus dem Turnier. Damals hatte er sich online qualifiziert, belegte schließlich den vierten Platz und kassierte USD 2.000.000 Preisgeld. Zwar spielte er auch danach immer wieder Liveturniere, sein Geld verdient er allerdings weiter beim Onlinepoker. Am Freitag machte er jetzt aber wieder bei der WSOP auf sich aufmerksam und hat den Sprung an den Finaltisch beim USD 1.500 No-Limit Hold’em geschafft. Mit 200.000 in Chips ist er allerdings der Shortstack und hat zudem harte Konkurrenz. Danny Wong aus Los Angeles zum Beispiel, der in seiner noch jungen Karriere schon fast zwei Millionen an Preisgeldern abgeräumt hat. Darunter ein zweiter Platz beim Main Event des Bellagio Cup II im Jahr 2006 für USD 561.115 sowie Siege beim Five Diamond World Poker Classic und bei der Turnierserie Legends of Poker 2007.
