I have been playing poker now for about 5 years, I have wagered cards my entire life beginning with games of Gin Rummy for pennies with my Grand Mother, to all of the various styles of Brag and general random games such as Go Fish, Crash and one so gracefully called, card on head casino game. I used to always win, whatever casino game we were betting and even though I liked to call it skill, it was really tough to justify thinking about the randomness of the games we were betting, so I was over joyed to accept I was having a prolonged run of luck.

Then came Poker, or a lot more importantly Holdem Poker, made popular by a group of Texas card players in the sixties and since grown into one of the largest card phenomena ever witnessed. Poker is absolutely the new black, it truly is super cool with several of the world’s top celebrities racing to have their name associated with it. Just a quick flick via the TV channels these days and it is possible to not escape from poker, and needless to say there is the fabled World Series of Poker, the Holy Grail and Mecca all rolled into one for each single player.

So with all of this new discovered popularity, with so numerous Television programmes devoted to poker, and magazine and book shelves loaded up with high quality material written by the foremost minds on poker, when are folks going to learn that this game is all about position!?

Perhaps I really should not acquire so worked up about this, after all the a lot more men and women who struggle with the delicate tactics and methods required for succeeding consistently at Texas hold’em, the far better it’s for everyone else, appropriate? I mean, if they can’t be bothered to read all of the accessible details about why placement is so essential, why ought to we bother? We ought to just be glad there is an additional fish at the table!

It’s true, we must not encourage idleness with guidance and assist. Nonetheless, I liken this to a friendly game of football. Granted the stakes aren’t so superior, except when you observe a gambler having difficulties, you guide them, provide them some advice, ultimately showing them a method to like, love and appreciate the game as much as you. I am asking all house players to do exactly the same thing with their poker buddies who have not quite got a handle on the subtleties of wagering position. Help them to grow their respect for the casino game. Needless to say, don’t attempt to try this one in your nearby gambling establishment, the sharks won’t appreciate you teaching their lunch how to swim!
