Internet poker is everywhere. Especially playing on poker stars net. Poker stars net is where everyone likes to start playing on. On poker stars net you can win a seat into the poker tour world or poker series world. Some people even start on poker yahoo or think with mathematics poker brains. There is a poker theory to winning online poker and if you play smart you can make some great money.

The one poker theory you should agree with is to play with bonus poker. What do I mean by that? Many poker sites offer a 100% deposit bonus when you sign up with them. The poker sites that offer a 100% bonus are as follows: Full tilt poker, poker stars, and bodog poker all over a 100% deposit for first time depositers. If you download poker on your computer and deposit into one of these sites you can sleep easy at night knowing that you just got the most for your money. You can get up to 600 bucks on your first deposit for doing nothing. That is an extra 600 bucks you have to play with to jump right into the poker tables. You can watch free poker video or take a look at card poker which will help you increase your odds of winning also.

Once you learn all the poker rules and try out advance advanced holdem player player poker, you will be ready to jump right into real money poker. Playing for real money is unlike any kind of poker game. When you play for play money people just absolutely don’t care. They will go all in with anything and play absolutely like a maniac. It’s depressing watching your aces or kings getting crushed by some idiot going all in with 34. It happens, with poker you need to accept it. Luckily you didn’t lose any real money if this happened to you at the play money tables. It happens all the time at the real money tables also, which is why I have retired from playing cash games and I make a great living now playing only sit and go’s. I have deposited 1 time in the last year and I have never looked back. Soon as I started strictly playing sit n go’s is when I was finally able to quit my day job, buy a new house, car, etc…

It has truly been a blessing waking up whenever I want and spending at least 4-5 hours a day playing sit and go’s. The breakdown is as follows for sit and go’s

1st place = 50% of the total prize pool

2nd place = 30% of the total prize pool

3rd place = 20% of the total overall prize pool

Now when I play sit and go’s I have one thing in mind every time I play. I go after first place every time no matter what. I do not play scared and do not think about getting knocked out and placing in the money. To be profitable you need to play like this also.

Poker has been around for centuries, so how come the sudden boom that has recently taken the Internet by storm?

I’m a big poker fan, and have been for years. I played poker regularly with my friends and family years before the advent of poker online. There were some things that I didn’t like about playing with my friends: the first thing was that I had to wait till we got some folk together before we could play, so I usually had to wait till a Wednesday or Sunday evening; second of all, when it started getting late people started dropping off to go home, which left little enough people to play, until within a few hours it was over; thirdly , and sometimes most annoyingly was that if you went all in and went out early in a game you had to sit and watch everyone else play for maybe an hour or more – how frustrating!

These, I believe, are the reasons for the boom in poker popularity. These reasons were the biggest reasons not to play poker, but now when you play poker online you have full control over when you play; when you stop playing, and when you go out you can simply start another game. Because of these features added by the power of the internet, a great game has been allowed to flourish.

The only difficult part about making the progression into the online world of poker is finding out where the best places are to play, and where to stay away from. When I started playing poker online this was the most daunting stage for me. If I’d have known then what I know now I would have been a lot more at ease when I was starting out.

What I have learned along the way is that there are sites out there to help the online poker beginner find out where the best places are to play; which places to stay away from, and which poker rooms are suitable to play in when the poker player fancies a change of scenery. One such site is the poker review site Poker Online UK. This site gives a number out of ten (a poker rank) of the top poker websites on the internet; and gives a description of the sites that it has ranked. This site also provides bonus codes and links from which the poker beginner will get bonus cash when they make a deposit using the code, or signing up through the link.

Another poker review site I found out about is Poker Websites. This site is similar to Poker Online UK, but in a different style. Poker Websites has a number that has been mathematically calculated to rank all of the top poker websites. The last time I was on the Poker Websites site I found out about the new site Poker News that’s associated with Poker Websites. Poker News is a new website dedicated to providing online poker players with the best poker news that they want to know about.

Poker has been around for a long time, but it’s only now that we enthusiasts have the freedom to play it whenever we want. God bless the Internet!

There are different types of poker played in different casinos of the world. Naturally, they are not identical. However, one great thing with them is that they all adhere to the basics rules of poker. So, if you are taking the game seriously and want to be a master, you should understand the rules and basic factors that will help you understand the game better and take a better grip of it.

Essentially, there are three basic rules of poker. The counting of the deck starts with 2. Thus, the Ace becomes the highest card. You can use only 5 cards, from yours and on the table, to make the best hand. Among the players, one who has the strongest hand wins the game. Now, the rule demands that you know the strength of your hand to go for the bet. Interestingly, there are certain patterns of cards that decide the strength of your hand. It is very important that you know them. Here is the list starting from the strongest hand:

Royal flush: This is considered to be the strongest hand in poker. Well, it is rare and seen more in poker DVD video than in reality. As a rule it demands that you have Ace, King, Queen, Jack and 10 of one suit to make a Royal Flush.

Straight Flush: The second most powerful situation is the Straight Flush where you have to have five consecutive numbers of a single suit. However, unlike the Royal Flush, the value of the card is lower as it is Jack, 10, 9, 8, and 7.

Four Of A Kind: This is the third most powerful hand. As the name suggests, here you have to posses four cards of the same number. However, if more than one player has similar hands, the hand with the greater value will win the game.

Full House: To make a Full House, you need to have three cards of one number and the rest of the two, another. Similar rules to Four of a Kind will be applied if multiple players have made it.

Flush: The next position belongs to Flush where all the five cards should be of the same suite. Number is not a matter here. In case another player has made it, the value of the highest card will determine the winner.

Straight: If you have five cards in the numerical order though, not of the same suit, you have made a straight. Again, the highest card will be decisive in time of a tie.

Three of a Kind: This is when you have three cards of the same number. The other does not mean anything here. The principle of higher card prevailing in the tie is also prevalent here as well.

Two Pair: When you posses a pair of cards with same numerical value. Thus you may have a hand with 5, 5, Jack, Jack and 9 to make the Two Pair. Here, the highest ranked pair is the winner in times of tie.

One Pair: Naturally, if you have one of the pairs, you have one pair.

High Card: This comes into play when you have none of the combinations mentioned above. Basically, if no one has made any hand, the owner of the highest card among them wins the game.

To be a proficient poker player, you need to learn the poker hand rankings by heart and do a lot of practice.
