Toyota is developing a fail-safe system for cars that detects drunken drivers and automatically shuts the vehicle down if sensors pick up signs of excessive alcohol consumption, a news report said Wednesday. Cars fitted with the detection system will not start if sweat sensors in the driving wheel detect high levels of alcohol in the driver's bloodstream, according to a report carried by the mass-circulation daily, Asahi Shimbun. The system could also kick in if the sensors detect abnormal steering, or if a special camera shows that the driver's pupils are not in focus. The car is then slowed to a halt, the report said. \ The world's No. 2 automaker hopes to fit cars with the system by the end of 2009, according to the report. Calls to Toyota's headquarters in Nagoya rang unanswered on Wednesday, a public holiday. Nissan Motor, another Japanese car manufacturer, has already been experimenting with breathalyzer-like devices that could detect if a driver was drunken. Simi...

The Pokerstars.com Moneymaker Millionaire poker extravaganza culminated in the final table over the weekend, held at the Atlantis Resort and Casino in the Bahamas, where the Chris Moneymaker legend of an unknown player beating formidable opposition was extended by another unfamiliar player who became a major winner. An incredible 830 000 players started out in the PokerStars.com freeroll, with months of play finally culminating in a diverse field of 27 players, who were flown to the Atlantis Resort and Casino in the Bahamas for the televised finale. The number 27 was significant, being the age at which poker celebrity Chris Moneymaker, then an unknown, took the World Series of Poker crown in 2003. This weekend an international group of finalists competed for a $1 million prize that included a 2007 Aston Martin DB9. 15 Americans, 10 Canadians, a German and one Slovenian player made the final cut in a tournament that took five months and three rounds to generate 27 finalists.

Taking a beat is quite possibly the most difficult skill to master in poker. You may be a top class player with every move in the book, but if you can’t take a knock without going on tilt, then sooner or later, you’re going to go bust. Not even the greatest player in the World can avoid the occasional bad beat. Now, when I use the term ‘beat’, I don’t just mean a bad beat or an outdraw, players can just as easily go off the rails from misplaying a hand or misclicking at a crucial point. If it’s costing you money, then somewhere, deep down perhaps, there’s a part of you that’s fierce with rage, and it is this fire that you need to learn to control. A year or two back, I would have slipped into that dreaded pitfall that so many of us tend to succumb to. You’re tired, hot and bothered, sick of losing, then suddenly, you actually find a hand, a flopped straight perhaps. All the money goes in, but your donkey of an opponent somehow manages to fluke a runner runner flush. ARGH!!! Tilt Time! ...

In the world of tournament poker, the blinds are of the utmost importance. When it comes to the latter stages of comps, knowing how to adjust to the increasing blinds is a vital skill that if mastered could be the difference between hitting the bubble and taking home thousands. In ring games, however, the blinds hold less significance due to (1) the increased stack sizes compared to the blinds and (2) The lack of any clock or blind levels. But incredibly, even with this information at hand, I still witness people treating the blinds as highly desirable commodities. First and foremost, if you sit with the maximum amount (which is predominantly 100 times the big blind), the value of your blind is next to nothing. Therefore, defending it becomes an almost worthless practice. If someone’s that desperate to take your blind, then let them. Calling a pre-flop bet out of position with a weak holding will only cause you problems and create difficult decisions. On the flipside, attacking the bli...
