Oct 13, 2006 - Goldsmith clan play happy families at celebrity poker night

As any poker player knows, the best thing to do when in trouble is to keep your cards close to your chest - and never forget the value of a good bluff. It did not help Zac Goldsmith win the celebrity poker event at an exclusive London members' club. But at least it stopped the curious asking too many questions about his alleged philandering ways.

Goldsmith - prospective Tory candidate, ecological campaigner and son of the late billionaire Sir James Goldsmith - was reported at the weekend to have been having a relationship with heiress Alice Rothschild, the sister of his younger brother's wife.

But last night Mr Goldsmith and his wife of seven years Sheherezade put up a united front when they turned up together for the £10,000-a-head charity poker tournament at Fifty in St James's, organised by Mr Goldsmith and cricketer Shane Warne.

The couple arrived hand in hand and then spent the rest of the night at each other's side. When asked about the claims, Mr Goldsmith, 31, retained a fixed smile but refused to comment.

He had previously said that the meetings with 22-year-old Miss Rothschild - the other organiser of last night's event - had been solely to plan the poker night. Mr Goldsmith and Miss Rothschild share a mutual love of the game.

She did not attend the event, leaving Mr Rothschild to brave it out with Sheherezade, 31, and his brother, Ben, who is married to Kate Rothschild.

Among the celebrities competing for the £100,000 cash prize were Hugh Grant and his girlfriend Jemima Khan - Mr Goldsmith's sister - Sting and his wife Trudi Styler, Teddy Sheringham and Tom Parker Bowles.

In the end, however, the glamorous crowd was no match for the more serious poker players. Grant put in the best performance of the celebrities, but no famous faces made the final table and the event was won by regular player Mark Teltscher.

As for the game, it was billed as big-time poker but it felt more like major league happy families (although some of the families may have been happier than others).

Grant and Styler were playing, but their partners sat by them and helped with their cards, and Mrs Goldsmith spent the night helping her husband to drinks.

"They looked very happy and normal" said an onlooker. "Sheherezade spent the entire time with Zac. She was either sitting next to him or was getting drinks for him."

More than £250,000 was raised for The Shane Warne Foundation, and Ecology Grants Ltd, which distributes funds to environmental charities.

Sept 19, 2006 - Celeb Poker Taking Advantage with Rakeback Incentives

The incentive of receiving rakeback is something new to poker and certainly something alarming to land based casinos and poker rooms worldwide. Players are receiving a percentage of the house take each month online regardless of wins or losses through sites like Bankroll Backer

There is an often debated and much discussed new phenomenon happening in the online poker world. Many top internet poker rooms have stepped up the old Las Vegas concept of "player comps" by giving away a percentage of their own take and profits through rakeback.

When a player signs up to play poker online they have the option of either make a deposit to play cards with real players for real money or choose to play with free chips and allow themselves to become familiar with the game. These two options for gaming are the standard for a majority of all online poker rooms. The introduction of rakeback is something new to many new poker rooms and certainly is a major deciding factor for many new players looking to make a deposit.

Before the rakeback offers began to make their way around the internet poker rooms used several methods to reward players for their loyalty. The first and most basic was the deposit bonus given by all poker rooms. Unlike playing poker at a casino players were given extra chips based on the amount of their deposit and the hands they played. Online poker deposits are released upon a players ‘raked hand’ and dollar amount played with. In addition to this bonus there we often times freeroll tournaments added for players who qualified. The tournaments were set a zero entry cost but had a real money prize pool for the top finishers. Poker rooms would host these tournaments in order to both allow players to preview the poker room software and reward existing players with a cash game free to them. While these offers were very generous and exceeded what land based casinos were doing the competition for players prevailed and poker rooms looked for new ways to attract and reward new members.

The next phase in online player rewards is rakeback. As explained earlier this is the process where a player receives a portion of their contributed rake (the amount of the pool the poker room keeps from each hand) back at the months end. The normal amount given is a medium of 25%. However some poker rooms have partnered with poker affiliates and offered as high as 30%. Online poker room rake back can add up. The amount of money received back is allowing players to start their next months bankroll with cash never available to them before.

Of all the incentives given to online poker players rakeback seems to be the most lucrative offer a new player is rewarded with. When looking for a poker room to make your next deposit at please keep in mind the amount of rake you are contributing and how much of your bankroll you could be missing out on. Author : David
