Poker Game Online
I learned how to play five card stud before I learned how to play Go Fish. My grandfather was an avid gambler and card player. His favorite game was poker, specifically five card stud and he enjoyed playing poker even when we were playing for pennies that we threw back in the poker jar after our games ended. It probably comes as no surprise that I am addicted to playing a good poker game online.
A poker game online differs from a poker game face-to-face. I miss the subtle tells that players give. I also like that many of the players do not know that they are giving their hands away just through a simple expression or subconscious gesture. It takes a lot of time to develop the skill required to “read” other players. This element is lost when playing poker online.
Texas Hold-Um is the most popular poker game online. This game is really appealing because it appeals to the adventurous type. I initially lost every penny of my cyber play money within a few hands. I attribute my losses to curiosity instead of the obvious inability to read the other players. I know that I should have folded a number of hands but I just had to play them out because I wanted to see if they would win by some fluke. Sometimes they did win but most of the time I should have just followed my gut and the general rules to playing poker. I chose to be so risky with the money because it was free.
There are a number of poker sites that offer free cyber money that you can lose at no cost to you. This kind of risk-free poker games are really appealing to someone like me. I did enjoy playing for pennies with my grandfather, but I also liked knowing that the pennies went back into my poker fund jar. Many people opt to play for real money in a poker game online and with some more practice, I may conjure the courage to play poker online for real money, but I don’t see it happening in the near future.
The appeal for a poker game online is still dangerous for me. Time is money and I can spend a lot of time playing the online poker games. I can’t say that I see myself becoming a professional card player, but I can see myself dedicating many hours to online poker as a hobby. But with a little self-control and discipline I can fondly remember my grandfather while playing a few poker games online.
