Playing online poker successfully means you have to be able to apply and withstand strong amounts of pressure. Ironically, playing poker too conservatively can put you under more pressure than playing a loose poker game. When you play too tight and passively, it allows other players to remain in the pot and see more cards. One of those cards could be a scare card that crushes your hand. Now you are under serious pressure deciding what to do - check, bet, raise or fold.

By applying pressure to your opponents earlier in the hand, you will chase away the chasers and have less pressure to deal with as the hand progresses. It is easier to win against only one or two opponents than a full table.

Players who want to avoid pressure unintentionally attract it to themselves. Those players who seem timid and easily scared by big bets are going to draw just the kind of attacks they dread. They wind up folding what often would have been the best hand because they were not able to withstand the pressure of a raise.

At the poker table, you want to be one applying pressure to others, and not on the receiving end. Take the initiative to be first to apply pressure when you are holding a good starter hand.

It was 1770 when the 1st guest house opened in Chamonix town. Before this date Chamonix was a savage and sturdy farming hamlet where locals captured their animals and farmed their own wheat.

Farmhouses at this time were used to breed dairy herds over the summer months. The milk was preserved by turning it into different types of cheese and stocked in the farm for eating over the bleak winters. During the snow season the farms were bolted, and any valued possessions were put safely in a shed.

Quite who came up with the ski chalet holiday is unknown, however it was likely several keen people who realised a pattern which people liked. For Erna Low it all began when she was a unhappy postgraduate who could not see her folks in Austria as frequently as she wished. Therefore in 1930 she took a punt and took out a ad in the broadsheets to ask punters on a winter vacation. For only £15 they traveled to and from the ski resort, enjoyed food and accommodation in the solitary inn, and took ski gear and lessons. The holiday was hard , there were no lifts, no safety fixings, only strong leather boots, but it was so successful that she continued to take skiers on vacations, ensuring she sourced grand hotels and ski instructors.

Catered chalet holidays in the formative years were a long way to the standards we can have now. In the early days hot water was in short supply, washrooms would be used by all of the clients, and there wasn’t a chef; all the punters were expected to help out. No one knew who may share the accommodation for the vacation, one might be pleased by meeting fresh skiers, or spend a week of hell with people you didn’t get on with.

Catered chalet holidays were later advertised on their other bonuses. Your own chef, who would serve you cooked breakfast and a four course dinner and provided you cakes.

Firstly, I cannot say I’m terribly happy being picky and be 100% truthful. But, I’m not unsatisfied about it, either. I only suggest it here as an appetizing little tidbit introducing what I am about to discuss honestly.

This time last week yours truly was talking to Trisha, thinking of buying a membership to the Phoenix Great Expectations dating service. Today, I type to you as a happy member of the matchmaking service. Totally, I am. I like it! If you’ve been paying attention, you may be wondering, “Stop blabbering and tell me about it already.”

So, I noticed these Great Expectations Reviews and liked what I saw. They’re for the serious singles who care enough to know dating should mean something.

Because I’d never enjoyed or even tolerated the ridiculous nightlife ritual most people so aptly entitled “The Dating Game.” I got it all the time. Every night readers pester, “Are you seeing somebody?” and “Oh I know just the guy for you!”

“That’s rubbish,” I reply, smiling ear to ear. “There’s nothing to date!”

“Don’t be silly,” they deadpan. “How would you know, you haven’t seen Friday Night Magic in a year!”

Leave it to my partner in crime (on a good day) (hehe) Patty Wilson. She pours rational thought to my brain 99% of the time. Caring souls never fail to offer perspective. Can’t argue with that, and I joined.

Back to the meaning of this essay. As I selected from more than three hundred outfits (hah) and desirable, honest singles for my first singles event with Great Expectations, a revelation hit me deep. For years, I hadn’t allowed myself too many figurative great expectations for dating and myself in the fun-filled journey of being human. It’s good to be single, only with healthy optimism. Holding great expectations works terrifically in dating.

There are credit card tips, and then there are credit card secrets. These latter are little known tricks that credit card companies play on you, as well as tricks you can use to get rid of fees and pay off your debt sooner. Here are some of the best credit card tips, tricks and secrets.

1. You can get rid of annual fees. If you have good credit, just call and ask for fee to be removed. This worked on three out of four cards I called on, and I just dumped the other. Of course the threat to do the same with the others is what got the fees dropped.

2. Read the fine print, and pay on time. Be aware that under “universal default” rules, if you are late on one card, your interest rate can be increased on other cards as well. They love to get you with this one.

3. Watch for changing due dates. This is a trick used by some credit card companies to get you to pay late, so they can collect the late fees. They will also be able to raise your rate, and the rate on other cards you may have. Don’t assume that your payment due date will always be the same.

4. Use promotional checks with care. Transferring balances to 0 interest promotions can be a good idea, but watch out for those that charge “balance transfer fees.” Transferring a balance that you were going to pay off soon anyhow will just cost you more if there is a 3% transfer fee.

5. Try credit unions for cards. Their cards usually have lower rates. My credit union Visa rate hasn’t been over 10% in years, and I have zero liability for unauthorized charges.

6. Ask to have the late fee waived. If you’ve never been late before, some credit card companies will waive a late fee - but only if you ask. Why not try it? All it takes is a phone call.

7. Pay in full every month. Credit cards are for convenience, not for hiding the true cost of things. Don’t pay interest - just pay the balance every month.

8. Don’t buy the credit card insurance. This typically stops your payments when you are injured or unemployed. It is one of the most over-priced insurances out there, and doesn’t eliminate the debt, but just delays it.

9. Avoid credit card security insurance. It pays for unauthorized charges when your card is stolen, but you are only liable for the first $50 if you report the theft in any case, and many cards already have 0 liability.

10. Pay high-interest cards first to reduce credit card debt. If you have $200 monthly to apply to your credit card debt, pay only the minimums only on all cards but the card with the highest interest rate. Put all the rest of the money towards that one. Once that one is paid off, work on the next highest. This is the fastest way to get rid of your credit card debt, and the most important of these credit card tips.

If you’ve done any searching on the Internet for information pertaining to “Credit Repair,” you’ve no doubt found that there’s a great deal available. Unfortunately, there’s also a lot of misinformation as well.

Let’s take a look at some of the most common misstatements you’ll come across and examine them in detail.

MYTH #1
“Credit repair doesn’t work!”

While it’s true that credit repair is more “art” than “science” that’s not to say it doesn’t work. If you undertake to repair your bad credit score, there’s never any guarantee you can restore it to “perfect” status. But sometimes you can, and in almost every case you can at least affect some improvement in your credit score, and often major improvement at that!

First of all, credit reports for the most part are filled with errors. While there seems to be no general agreement, it’s estimated that anywhere from 1/3 (Attorney General of NY) to as many as 90% (Charles Givens Organization) of credit reports contain errors.

Removal of erroneous negative information alone will go a great way toward improving your credit score. But there’s more to the story, which brings us to myth #2.

MYTH #2
“Negative information that can be verified cannot be removed”

This is one of those statements that are “almost” true, but taken literally is misleading. As is often the case, the inclusion (or exclusion) of one seemingly small word makes the difference in a truthful statement, and one that’s not (or not necessarily) accurate.

Let’s take an analogy. Suppose it’s the middle of summer, and your grass has grown unusually high. Let’s also suppose that you own a lawn mower, it’s in good working condition, and has plenty of gasoline in the tank.

Now let’s say that you’re sitting on your couch and say to yourself “My grass will get cut today because I ‘CAN’ go outdoors anytime and cut it.”

So will your grass get cut? Not necessarily! Just because you “can” go outdoors and cut your grass doesn’t mean it’s going to get done. You can repeat this statement to yourself all day long, but your grass isn’t going to get cut until you actually go outside and DO it!

Likewise, because a negative item on your credit report “can” be verified doesn’t mean it will be. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, a credit bureau must investigate and verify “within a reasonable period of time” any item in your credit report that you dispute. If the “information is found to be inaccurate or can no longer be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall promptly delete such information.”

Now in this context “can be verified” clearly means verified by the credit bureau’s investigation of the item, and the “reasonable period of time” has been established (by subsequent rulings) to be 30 days. So if the credit bureau doesn’t complete its investigation of the disputed information within 30 days, or if for some reason the creditor fails to respond and verify the information, by law the disputed data must be deleted from your credit file.

MYTH #3
“Credit repair agencies are all scams”

It’s true that there ARE a good many unscrupulous credit repair agencies. But there are also some corrupt police officers, lawyers, and politicians. Yet we don’t label all members of these professions as “corrupt.”

If you’re looking for help to repair your bad credit you do need to be careful and do your “homework” when selecting an agency. There are many honest credit repair companies that are not “scams.” But beware of any who make promises as to results!

As stated above, it’s not always possible to restore your bad credit history to perfect status, and no one should be making any promises to that effect. Beware of any company that does! And while an agency will in all likelihood be able to improve your credit score, if any agency makes this promise, be sure it’s accompanied by a money back guarantee. Otherwise, look elsewhere. And don’t forget to ask for references and follow up on them.

MYTH #4
“You have to hire a credit repair agency or lawyer to fix your credit”

Going back to the analogy above, you can always hire someone else to cut your grass (or to do just about anything else) for your. And if fixing your own credit seems an intimidating task, you might prefer to hire a credit repair company to do it.

But it’s not really necessary that you do. First of all, credit repair agencies aren’t cheap. You can expect to pay anywhere from $2,500 to $5,000 or more. Plus, you’ll be paying a high fee for something you can just as well do for yourself, which brings us to myth #5.

MYTH #5
“It’s too difficult or complicated to fix your own credit”

A credit repair company isn’t going to do anything for you that you can’t do for yourself! Credit repair isn’t rocket science. It involves writing letters to credit bureaus and to creditors. If you’re able to write a letter, put a stamp on it and mail it, you’re able to repair your own credit.

“Given the proper knowledge, you can fix your own credit”

This statement IS true! You’re entirely able to repair your own credit, given the proper knowledge. And given the proper knowledge, you can fix your own car, repair your own plumbing, or for that matter perform brain surgery.

While fixing your own credit is relatively simple and straightforward, you do have to know how to go about it. Essentially it involves getting a copy of your credit report and writing letters to the 3 major credit bureaus disputing negative information in your file.

But there’s a right way and a wrong way to do it. In fact even some of the high priced credit repair agencies get it wrong, which brings us to myth #6.

MYTH #6
“You improve your credit score by getting all the negative items on your credit report removed”

It’s possible to get all the negative items on your credit report removed and actually see you credit score go DOWN as a result! The reason? Your credit score depends on a number of factors, one of which is the length of your credit history. In some cases, you’re better off to NOT remove some negative items on your report, especially if they involve a few late payments in the distant past, but show timely payments during recent years.

While the “nuts and bolts” of credit repair is beyond the scope of this report, there are a number of sources of good information online. If you have bad credit, there are 3 major points you should keep in mind:

1. If you have a bad credit history, it can (and probably will) cost you many tens of thousands of dollars in higher loan interest over the years, as you’ll be charged much higher rates than you would be with good credit. If your credit is really bad, you may not be able to get a loan at all!

2. The situation isn’t hopeless! In almost every case you CAN improve your credit score. You can easily do it yourself or find a reputable agency to do it for you. But in any case, GET IT DONE!

3. If you choose to repair your own credit (recommended) there are good books and eBooks available that can walk through the process. Get hold of one and get started NOW!

Do you know the single best way to “supercharge” any goal setting program you use is through visualization?

What is visualization? And how do you do it for maximum goal achievement?

Actually, it’s quite simple and something you do all the time.

Simply create a mental picture of the end result of your goal.
Completely visualizing your desired goal is also an extremely powerful way to change one’s subconscous programming for the better.

For example, if your affirmation is “I easily make $1,000 or more each week”
then you simply create a mental picture of:

The list is endless and only limited by your imagination. So let your imagination go wild…

Here’s a chance to daydream like you did as a kid.

Let’s assume your affirmation is “I weigh 110 lbs” (or whatever weight you wish to weigh)

Simply create a mental picture of you:

Again, allow your imagination to take over and have fun with your visualization.

Each time you visualize your desired goal, feel free to change the mental picture or use the same one repeatedly.
If you like, make your visualization into a mini “mental movie.” Add as many senses as possible to the movie.

This is often called “complete visualization” and gives your subconscious mind a very clear picture of what you want to accomplish.

Here’s how a complete visualization, using the above example, would go:

You hold in your hands 10 fresh $100 dollar bills.

You can feel their crispness and notice their fresh ‘money’ smell.

You look around you and see your local bank.

As you wait in line to deposit your money, you begin to feel the excitement of knowing you now have $1,000 or more to deposit every week.

As you approach your favorite bank teller, you hear them say “Welcome to ABC National Bank. What can I help you with today?”..

Did you notice how you combined all 5 senses and the crucial element of positive emotions into your dream scenario?

You probably even felt a little excitement reading the above visualization.

That’s the power of visualizations!

Again, let your imagination have fun and form your own unique “mental movies”

Did you know that if you spent 5-10 minutes every day doing this simple “daydreaming” you’d be on the effortless road to accomplishing any goal you wanted?

Ever wondered why certain people seem to accomplish their goals with seemingly little to no effort?

You may already have 2 or more credit cards in your purse or wallet and you have just applied for a third and been declined. This can be very frustrating considering you pay off your other credit cards regularly and you are continually having your credit limit raised.

This is a common problem and the only way to find out more is by getting a copy of your Credit Report. Equifax and Experian are the two main credit reference companies in the UK and hold credit details of over 40 million people. Your file includes information about all your credit cards, loans, mortgages, bank account details, as well as any adverse bill payments or County Court Judgements against you.

When a Credit Provider asses your credit risk they will look at your Credit Report and make a decision based on your scoring. Your score is based on several factors. You may get more points for living in your address for more than 3 years or for having a home telephone, be married or for having children. Your age and profession can also help your score. The more points you have on your file the more chance you have of being approved for credit. The credit provider will use all this information coupled with your credit history to come to a decision. A Credit Providers scoring system is sensitive information so it’s not easy to understand why you were refused credit.

By having access to your Credit Report you will be able to get a sense of why you possibly have not been granted Credit. Another important point is to check and see that everything on your report is correct. You are allowed to make corrections to your file. As most people don’t get their Credit Report they never know what’s on it or why they are being refused credit. If you fell behind in some of your bill payments you are also allowed to add a note explaining why you did. This may also improve your score.

With all the 0% credit cards on offer its worth mentioning that if you are continuously applying for these cards you could be damaging your credit score. The number of times you apply within a 6 to 12 month period can have an adverse effect on your score. If you have been refused credit, don’t just move on to the next lender, find out as much as possible as to why it was declined before applying somewhere else.

You can find out more about your Credit Report at Experian and Equifax. It costs £2 for a basic report.
