Re: Is Cardplayer magazine the complete tool of the industry?
 

Yeah they really are a big tool. Not one single word on the Absolute Poker scandal, in fact I even saw more AB promos the week it stormed on this forum. Even a NYT editorial had a story on AB. Poker magazines only show when a player does something wrong not the Site if your lucky. Bluuf magazine is a tool also but it is a lot better to read I think.

It was the standard before the boom and because of that, has gotten a pass for a few years. It used to be distributed for free in the card rooms only. Since adding paying subscribers, I think they have to dumb it down to appease the market of the player who is subscribing instead of picking it up at the card room.

Complete tool?

Yeah, Cardplayer is like a swedish army knife. Looks great but isn't good for much and ends up sitting in your desk drawer taking up space.

I've heard the knives from Switzerland are better than the ones from sweden

Re: Is Cardplayer magazine the complete tool of the industry?
 

what exactly does a swedish army knife have in it anyway? i bet you it makes my swiss one feel inadequate.

It's not like CardPlayer exists as an important journalistic entity... it is JUST like the NY Times.

It exists to make money. Plain and simple.

As swedes are not as aggressive IRL as in poker i think they use army knives to cut cake rather then killing people.
