Classic Poker

Posted by admin | Poker History | Wednesday 24 March 2010 2:46 pm

Poker is played in many forms and variations. Classic or straight poker is the oldest version of this game. The roots of this game can be traced back to the American Revolutionary War in 1775. Back then, this was a three card game called Primero. It is still very widely played in India, Nepal and the United Kingdom. In English it is now called “flush”, in Hindi “Teen Patti”.

It is from Primero that classic poker evolved into what it is today in its basic game form. i.e. straight poker. This is the simplest variation of all the forms of poker with the least complication in the basic rules of card handling and dealing. The other variations of the game only differ in the way the cards are dealt. The hierarchy of the cards and the manner of betting remains the same. This makes this game ideal for beginners and amateurs to break their bones before they try more complicated variants of the game.

Five cards are dealt straight to all the players in the game. Betting on the hand follows and stakes are raised. Most games have a limit to the maximum bet that can be placed on each hand. This is usually to avoid the awkward situation of people not having enough chips to carry on. Ideally bets can be raised till people are in the game and there is no limit to the number of rounds of betting. Most times all five cards are used in case of a final show down.

The game form of straight poker does not leave a lot of room for strategy building. It is difficult to add new twists to the game as it progresses. You have what you have in your hands. This brings the need for other variations of the game that evolved over time.  Since the rules more or less remain the same, it’s easy to make new form of this game yourself and play them if you understand the play well enough. There are some other standard variations of the game that will be discussed in subsequent articles in detail.

Professionally, straight poker is hardly played anymore. Casinos and gambling houses usually play other variants of the game to allow additional strategies and game twists. For beginners, I would still recommend a couple of rounds of straight poker just to get a feel of the game before trying on variants.

Online Poker Tells

Posted by admin | Online Poker, tells | Monday 15 March 2010 4:04 pm

A quick bet is a sign of weakness.

A delayed action is a sign of strength. If an opponent thinks and then sets a long time, then he usually has a strong hand. If you have ever played in an online poker room then you have certainly seen how easy it to a is made to respond. This can be done via commands like “check” “fold” “raise” or “call”. You can tell if someone has used one of these boxes, because then the players react almost immediately after the previous player has acted.

Use this to your advantage.

If a player has used the Raise button even before then you should see this in the quick response and it is a sign of a strong hand.

When he quickly checked out, then it is a sign of a weak hand. If it is to call then he usually has a drawing hand. The use of the check box is for the Tell a good poker player has already made a decision before you have another opponent to play to see.

Starting in Paris as crazy as stupid has become one of the favorite pastimes of pro poker players. The last challenge of this kind which had attracted the attention of everyone in the small world of poker was a prop bet between Gavin Smith, Jeff Madsen and Joe Sebok. The idea of this side bet was absurd to make a last longer on the World Poker Tour LA Poker Classic taking place currently in the City of Angels. This time the money will not be the engine of the bet. The three companions have decided to push the prop bet of stupidity to the extreme. Indeed, the first eliminated from the Main Event will be tattooed faces of the other two on the body, the second one will face.

The verdict comes from falling, Gavin Smith will not have to suffer the stings of the needle. Even if he were knocked out at the beginning of Day 2 of the Word Poker Tour with a low 462nd place, Gavin Smith can gloat over his poor performance. Joe Sebok and Jeff Madsen in addition to their early elimination, respectively shall be printed the mug of Gavin, a part of their body. For Joe Sebok humiliation will double because it will have not one but two faces on his body. Rumors Joe Sebok, would have tried to mollify his two companions, it would happen tattoos cons of money, but the other two were determined to take a perverse pleasure from laughing at their friend declined the supply. Note that Gavin Smith has already entered the initial Joe Sebok in his back.
