Do You Play Poker?

Poker is a game of skill but the skill comes from many things

1) Telling whether people are risking all their chips on a 15/1 shot or a 2/1 shot
2) Playing for hours without making a mistake
3) Knowing when to get out of a hand when you're beat

Yes there's luck involved but a great player will know when to lay down their kings when someone has aces. If it's not about skill then how come players like Ivey make a LOT of cash every single year.

For future ref my ids are:
Stars: Tomcoyote99
Merge: Thecoyote2525
PKR: Netguru
Party: Tomcoyote99

That's about all I play as the other sites just don't have enough in terms of variety. I do like the Merge $15k every Sunday. Also check out the Bodog/Bovada 100k every sunday.

If anyone has interest in a connection for a rake back program (re-fund your rake play) please feel to send me a line. I'll also add bonus if the initial deposit is $50 or over, only on Merge gaming, thanks!

Poker is a game of skill. Since 2010 or 2009 the federation of poker is a member of the MSO (Mind Sports Organisation) Like chess bridge, GO etc..
 
I play on PKR as you can see from my avatar. First try play money tables and build a good balance.
 
I used to play until all the bigger sites stopped Americans from using them. Can't be bothered to go to Carbon and Hero and whatever else there is.

Once I get my PokerStars or PartyPoker, I'll play but until then, I'll wait...
 
Does anyone plays poker from here? Where can I learn poker?

I used that exact line when I used to make a living playing hold em in basement/garage game. Works like a charm, but also because I had the blonde female advantage.

My advice... learn to play by playing with friends. DO NOT play poker anywhere online, that's just crazy. You can always study those books too, but they are to make you a BETTER player when you first want to sharpen your own skills. Play at a lowball table in a casino or see if there's a poker league/tourney near you to play for fun. Don't buy in any game you can't afford to lose, and my advice is to play for the fun/challenge of the game. It's too easy to get sucked into the gambling aspect of it and some people just can't handle that and shouldn't play.
 
Texas Hold+em at PokerStars, with a lot of money you can earn a lot of money :)
