South Africa, Safaris and Poker
I have been exploring South Africa. Right now I am in Cape Town and I am overwhelmed by how beautiful it all is. I have spent two days as a tourist and if there is any way, for any of you to make the trip, you need to see the country.
I never get to far away from poker, no matter how beautiful or intriguing the country is, and tonight I will check out a private game. I expect to have a lot of fun.
In a few days I will go on a safari in the Sabi Sabi Game Reserve. After that I will travel to Johannesburg to play the South African Open.
I have been playing a lot at T6Poker against a player called 4color. We have been playing 100-200 Euro PLO and lately we stepped up to 200-400 PLO. That is the limit that I have done the most damage to 4color in. The guy is a good player but I am playing just a little bit better and have taken his money so far. The value at T6Poker is huge. The tournaments have an amazing overlay, and yes, everyone gets paid so it’s encouraging. I am very, very happy with my deal with T6Poker.
Next week I go to London to play the Premier League with Annie Duke and Phil Hellmuth. That should be something to be locked up with Hellmuth for one week. I might also nail him in some cash games.

Labas Tony,
Nice selection for the trip, a bit risky though. I like T6, software is good enough and overlays are stuning but only for those who already have made their deposits. There are guys out there who still wants to know new room better and to get more assurance. I am one of them and some things made me a bit puzzeled concerning T6 fairness and integrity. First what I don’t like is T25 no deposit bonus (yeah, the one on the upper right corner). The thing is, you play two games and lose them both, so now you have T7?…Not really, the min buy in is T9. I think this is pretty well thought strategy by T6 to safe some money. Second thing is statistic of tournament cancellation. Played only freerolls, didn’t count exactly but guess was something 2 out of 5 were canceled. Again nice money saving policy by T6.
I think T6 has put so much efforts and investment to build a nice poker room and comunity but forgot the most important thing - to make people trust them. If T6 will solve this problem, i see them on the top 10 list of online poker rooms.
Good luck Tony!
