Joe Hachem defeated 5,618 players to win the main event of the 2005 World Series of Poker in the USA – his victory earned him a record breaking $7.5 million. If you'd like to learn how to play as well as Joseph, download partyporker .com today. He has now confirmed his entry into the New Zealand Porker Champs, where he will be taking on around 150 other partyporker players for the lion's share of a $200,000 prize pool and a seat at the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas. Christchurch Casino's Marketing Manager Simon Carter says his team is 'absolutely stoked' Hachem is entering the competition.

Another good way of picking up ideas and learning is to watch other partyporker games without taking part yourself. I sometimes watch some of the higher stakes games which feature some regular names. In recent weeks, and again last night, I have been watching a particular French-based player who seems to major on the hi/lo tables. I have rarely opened a table to find him losing. Often he has two or three times the buy-in and plays at two or three download partyporker tables simultaneously. Yet I wouldn't say he is tight.

You might not recall, boys and girls, but poker used to be kind of associated with gambling, and gambling was bad. Lipscomb and his World Porker Tour changed that - big time - and he recently spoke about how it happened at the University of Texas' McCombs School of Business as part of the school's Partyporker Plus Program. His message: Do what you have a passion for, and what no one but you can do. In 2001, Lipscomb said, poker was dying. Poker rooms in casinos were closing because it didn't generate as much revenue for the house as other games. But Lipscomb - a former attorney who sold his lawyer-referral business to bankroll a documentary film on the oppression of women by Southern Baptists - had also done a doc on the World Series of Poker tournament.

He saw potential: When the film aired on The Discovery Channel, twice as many people were watching at the end as were at the beginning. And there are an estimated 50 million people playing partyporker com online at home. Casino bigshot Lyle Berman thought the idea of creating a sort of NBA of poker was a neat idea and ponied up cash. Exclusive deals with casinos - with each paying Lipscomb's company a fee for the national exposure - came one after the other. (The deal guaranteed that the show would air at least once, even if producers had to buy airtime themselves.)

The field is almost set for next weekend's Second Annual National Heads Up Porker Championship. To be conducted at Party Porker in Las Vegas from March 3rd to the 6th, the tournament will bring together 61 of the greatest poker players in the world and three "wild card" entries that should add some unexpected drama to what has become one of the most prestigious titles in partyporker in a short time. The "Final Four" from the 2005 tournament, Champion Phil Hellmuth, runner-up Chris "Jesus" Ferguson, Antonio "The Magician" Esfandiari and T. J. Cloutier, will all attempt to make a return trip to the finals of this year's event, but the field will have danger at every turn.
