Poker Tips for Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez has been alleged to have engaged in high stakes poker games with other celebrities in the recent past. These supposed illegal contests have hurt his image during a time when he hasn’t been producing on the field due to injury. I am an aficionado of poker and have some suggestions for the highest paid baseball player:
He shouldn’t deposit money into any offshore poker accounts. It would probably even be safer for him to put his money into a stock of a Fortune 500 company right now. There has been some argument over the legality of these gaming sites and money is still tied up in at least one major one.
He should watch poker on Fox Sports. The World Poker Tour has high quality analysis provided by commentator Mike Sexton. If A Rod implemented even a small portion of Sexton’s advice, then he would likely walk away with most of the chips at almost any table.
This would take an act of God, but a personality transplant is in order. Teammate Derek Jeter’s popularity is at an all time high after attaining his three thousandth hit last month. The captain is universally seen as a leader. A Rod is on the other end of the spectrum. Reading others in a live game is a necessity for success and he obviously is not adept at this. If he were, he wouldn’t pull the shenanigans that he has over his career. Remember the sign stealing incident?
