Don’t Fall Into the Limited Games Trap


So many of the online poker players that I know tell me that they have being playing Texas Hold’em Poker online since day one of their decision to join the online revolution but I know that they have come from a live poker background of a number of different variants?

I mean I know that Texas Hold’em Poker is the most popular version of the game online but surely they would be better playing a variant of the game that they are more experienced with rather than simply following the crowd of players before them that rush to the Hold’em tables?

It seems that online poker seems to come hand in hand with Texas Hold’em for many players, even those that have come from a background in another version of the game but I think that it would be interesting to see what they could present when they stick to their own knowledge and take on a whole new concept, playing a game for real money that they truly feel comfortable playing.

I say this as I have recent been speaking with a neighbour of mine who I know goes to the local casino to engage in Caribbean Poker games, the sort that see you sat at machines rather than tables and taking on the house rather than some shark that is trying to make you think that he can’t hold the cards right let alone roll the poker chips through his fingers like a pro.

Mark, the lad from next door was a little concerned about trying out the online version of the game so I told him about CaribbeanStudOnline.org, a site that I had found that seemed to give players the chance to have a look at the sites that were offering the game in more detail than some of the other listing results, so looking at their Bet365 casino review would give you more of an insight for what you were in for when you joined the site.

To this day Mark is still reluctant to join the casinos to play the game as he says that he has his money locked into the poker sites so it could take a part stake from me but I will feed back the results when I get him there!
