PokerStars.com APPT Sydney, Day 1b: Jason Gray Enjoys Huge Opening Session
December 3, 2008
The field for Day 1b of the PokerStars.com Asia Pacific Poker Tour Grand Final at the Star City Casino in Sydney was larger than Day 1a, with 172 players joining the event. Among the big names on hand were Gavin Griffin, Raymond Rahme, Terrence Chan and Mark Vos, as well as local favorites Jeff Lisandro, Billy “The Croc” Argyros and 2007 champion Grant “Grunter” Levy. At the end of the day, it was Australian pro Jason Gray leading the pack, with Gavin Griffin his nearest competitor atop the leader board.
Billy “The Croc” Argyros was an early casualty, putting him on the bad end of a last-longer bet he was trying to set up with 2008 World Series of Poker Main Event champion Peter Eastgate. Argyros put up $10,000 AUD that he would outlast Eastgate in the tournament, based on his assumption that the newly-minted world champ would be jetlagged from flying into Sydney the night before the tournament. Argyros busted early on Day 1b, leaving him the guaranteed loser if Eastgate makes the money. Argyros went bust in a brutal set-over-set hand against Terrence Chan when his was no good on a flop of against Chan’s .
Other notable eliminations on Day 1b included 2007 champ Grant Levy. He never got anything going in the event, and busted when he put the last of his chips in the middle with and was called by a player with . The board ran out , and Levy headed to the rail. Jeff Lisandro, Gary Benson, Raymond Rahme and Peter Aristidou were among the bustouts on Day 1b.
Several big names performed well on Day 1b, as Mark Vos picked up aces twice in short order and doubled up both times with them. Vos lost some chips late in the day but finished in the middle of the pack. Finishing up somewhat better was Gavin Griffin, who came to Sydney to add a fourth notch on his belt. Griffin already has titles from the World Series of Poker, European Poker Tour and World Poker Tour to his credit, and he finished Day 1b second in chips as he looks to add an APPT trophy to his mantle.
By far the biggest stack in the field at the end of the day belonged to Jason Gray, and he moved into the lead early with a huge pot against Nathanael Seet. Gray raised preflop and was reraised by Seet. Gray called, and the flop came down . Seet led out, and Gray called once more to see the come on the turn. Seet checked, and Gray fired a bet. Seet check-raised all in, and Gray called with for the straight. Seet tabled for an overpair and a straight draw, but the on the river was no help as he headed to the rail and Gray dragged a massive pot. Gray never relinquished his chip lead, finishing the day with a huge edge over Griffin and the rest of the field. Other notable survivors included Lee Nelson, Eric Assadourian, Mark Vos and Jamie Pickering.

Latest Update – US Online Casino Deposit Methods – 11-30-08
December 2, 2008
November 30 – Resident in the United States? Fear not, there are loads of different deposit methods to choose from, and some are easier and more efficient than you think. Here is a quick overview of the methods you can use at online casino that still welcome US residents.
(Please note that, unless stated otherwise, you can sign up with these methods through the USA online casinos we recommend.
Credit Cards – All casino offer at least Visa and Mastercard as deposit methods, and in some instances even American Express. The issue is however that these transactions are often rejected (to no fault of the online casino). Some online casinos have better acceptance rates than other, but to our knowledge the Real Time Gaming powered Playersonly.com Casino by far has the highest acceptance rate at the time of writing.
eWalletXpress pretty much works just like Paypal. You create an account which you can fund from your checking account after you have successfully gone through a verification process. Transferring money in and out of the eWalletXpress system is very easy and totally secure. A good example of a casino that provides this method is English Harbour Casino.
eCheck (Instant Checks) – Not too many US facing casino offer this method these days. Money is taken directly from your check account. The only US casino that offers this method to our knowledge is Golden Casino.
Western Union Money Transfer – This is a safe way to deposit funds but its pretty laborious. You have to go into one of many thousands of outlets that offer Western Union services, and wire money to the casino’s account. It’s pretty straight forward though. Most of the US facing casino offer this method, like Paradise 8 Casino.
Quicktender / UseMyWallet (This is the old EcoCard) – This is an online prepaid debit card which works much like an electronic wallet so there is no fraud danger. Offered at Millionaire Casino.
A few online casinos offer PrimaPin, a prepaid phone card as well as ToggleCard, also pre-paid debit card – more information at Club USA Casino.
MoneyGram (or Rapid Transfer) is like Western Union and is used at Bodog Casino.

UK Gambling Commission Offers Player Guidelines – 12-01-08
December 2, 2008
December 1 – The continuous attempts in the United States to outlaws online gambling and confuse banks is in stark contrast to the online gambling environment in the United Kingdom where online casinos are regulated, as is their advertising. The UK Gambling Commission has now gone one step further in issuing guidelines designed to help consumers make informed choices when it comes to gambling online.
In the meantime, the US is doing preciously little to protect its citizens and some would argue that the recent withdrawal of some high profile operators is opening the door for rogue operators to trap unsuspecting online casino enthusiasts.
The UK aims to protect its consumers, and the United Kingdom Gambling Commission has published a document designed to advise visitors of online casinos what to they should be careful of, and what they should look for before joining up with an online casino. There are over 2000 online gambling sites targeting the UK market, and the document is aimed at helping the consumers distinguish the good ones from the bad ones.
The guidelines suggest a number of checks, such as the casino’s licensing and regulator authority. As the Gambling Commission itself regulates online casinos, it discourages play at unregulated ones. If a casino claims to be UK regulated, it can be confirmed at the Commission’s website.
The licensing country is important. Different countries employee varying standards and it is important to clearly understand what country’s laws apply.
The paper also urges to check the software used, and whether there is clear proof that game fairness is audited by a third party. Players should also understand whether the casino has a clear and transparent complaints process.
The Commission is doing nothing different to numerous independent online watchdogs and self-regulatory industry bodies, but most observers will agree that this is very positive coming from the regulators themselves.
The U.K. Gambling Commission is working to protect it’s citizens in a positive and cooperative fashion. It is treating people like adults, able to make their own decision, by arming them with the information they need. Too bad so many other countries are incapable of following their example.
