PokerMafia.com
is a site dedicated to people wanting the best information in poker presented by unbiased parties. The material you receive comes from a combined 80+ years of experience in casinos around the world.

We have created this site to give new players and old an unbiased arena where they can experience different aspects of the game presented by people who actually play for a living. You will be introduced to sides of the game you may never have imagined existed. At the same time you can learn (from a high stakes poker player and scammer and a high stakes poker cheat) how to protect yourself from cheating or scamming and generally, how to improve your game.

Concepts you will read about on this site come from decades of playing high stakes poker for a living, something none of the present-day authors have ever done. You may find many of our hypotheses revolutionary and controversial as they will totally rebuff concepts you have read about in other books. Our aim is to make you a complete player, whether you just strive to improve your recreational game or to become a professional.

Oh, and don't get excited if you see some advertising on the site - it costs money to do this, you know. We will accept advertising, but we won't accept anything we think is fraudulent.

And ladies, please don't take offense at the almost exclusive use of 'he' when we refer to people/players on this site and in any publications. We know you play and we have no preferences - the plain fact is that it's simply easier.

Thank you for visiting. This site will not remain static and new features will be added as development progresses.

Russ answer's Jeff's question, "Why should I join?"

If you're interested in becoming a better player in all aspects of the game. If you're interested in becoming a professional. If you're interested in making a profit playing poker. If you're interested in becoming an all around player, capable of playing all games, you should join PokerMafia.com.

Poker is a war game, and your weapons are your skills. I teach people the proper concepts and betting strategies. I tell people the myths about poker, the ones that no one dares to address.

Never has anyone as high on the food chain gone this far to teach. I've played professional high stakes poker for 40 years. I play all games, full table, short handed. I consider myself the most rounded and knowledgeable player in the world and have the ability to turn disciplined people into far better players for a very reasonable fee. In "The Dark Side of Poker" Vinnie Vegas says of me, "Whether you love him or hate him, there’s no denying the quality of his product...For the serious player, or the aspiring student of the game, both Dirty Poker and Pokermafia.com are important reads.”

Professional players should subscribe just for H.O.E and H.O.R.S.E. knowledge. I can transform any person wanting to learn into a winning player.

While many may think my private lessons are too expensive for them, in reality they are well worth the price, and anyone with any poker savvy can quickly make the money back playing poker. Most of those receiving lessons from me have made great advances in the games in which they were weak. And consider this option if you're on the fence about taking a lesson - I give members a chance to play online tournaments with me as their coach, tutoring them by phone. I watch the game, and the person tells me his hole cards. I give him his best options and explain the reasons so he learns as he plays.

What I offer here on PokerMafia.com, is basically group lessons to offset costs. Consider this a school. People spend $25-$30 for a book written by someone who is basically a writer. I am a high-stakes professional poker player who's turned to writing for reasons of my own. My knowledge is far greater than those you have come to know as writers. Those who write and do play generally do so in low levels.

I've been featured in numerous magazine articles and am one of the premier Online players. I'm aware of most online sites and will offer players truthful valid opinions on sites.

Watch for my new book, POKER UNCHECKED, due to be out in May, 2008.
