I own a gaming blog that get around 210 hits per day with only 7 clicks last month and I think its mainly because my adsense ads are just not targeted enough because my google ads are coming up with stuff like the following:

Know the Laws
AMF Bowling
Dungeon Crawl
Tenpin Bowling Sydney
Free Web Hosting & Site
Gold Mining WA Trips

See i want stuff more like to do with nerdy games and shows:

Nintendo Advanced
Real 3D Headphone Audio
Games
LA Noire

How can I improve these ads in my WordPress system?

you can try to block that "Know the Laws", "AMF Bowling", etc, ads on your adsense account.

I hate reading posts with out a conclusion, so to help others you go.

Conclusion:
1) I logged into Google Adsense > Allow & Block Ads > General categories > I just selected the absolute irrelevant topics.
2) Then I went into Advertiser URLs > then added a few links I really didn't want my readers to see like Dating services.
3) Give the ads time to change over

Hope this helps anyone else and thanks rheenacute and enlytend for your help

Sometimes when Google doesn't love your site, they give you the bulk-buy ads instead of targeted stuff. I have heard that when you block these ads (lately it's been Groupon and others), you'll get stuck with the pennies per click ads.
...and I was about to mention section targeting, but just read enlytend's post.
