I have been betting poker now for about 5 years, I’ve bet cards my entire life starting 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 often win, whatever game we were playing and although I liked to call it skill, it was extremely hard to justify thinking about the randomness of the games we were betting, so I was happy to accept I was having a prolonged run of good fortune.
Then came Poker, or additional importantly Texas holdem Poker, made famous by a bunch of Texas card players in the sixties and since grown into one of the biggest card phenomena ever observed. Poker is absolutely the new black, it is super awesome with a lot of of the world’s top super stars racing to have their name connected with it. Just a quick scan through the TV channels these days and it is possible to not escape from poker, and obviously there is the fabled WSOP, the Holy Grail and Mecca all combined into one for every single gambler.
So with all of this new discovered recognition, with so a lot of Tv shows devoted to poker, and magazine and book shelves filled up with high quality material written by the top minds on poker, when are people going to learn that this game is all about position!?
Perhaps I should not acquire so worked up about this, after all the additional people who wrestle with the subtle tactics and approaches needed for winning regularly at Texas hold em, the much better it truly is for everyone else, correct? I mean, if they cannot be troubled to read all of the offered details about why placement is so essential, why really should we bother? We need to just be happy there’s another fish at the table!
It’s true, we ought to not encourage idleness with guidance and guide. On the other hand, I liken this to a welcoming casino game of football. Granted the stakes aren’t so good, but when you notice a gambler struggling, you guide them, offer them several advice, ultimately showing them a method to enjoy, love and be grateful for the game as much as you. I am askin all house players to do a similar thing with their poker friends who haven’t quite got a handle on the subtleties of wagering position. Support them to grow their respect for the casino game. Certainly, do not attempt to try this one in your local gambling den, the sharks will not take pleasure in you instructing their supper how to swim!
