poker - just watched 30 minutes of it on tv
 

and i have no clue what's going on. i've never played. are there any good beginner poker tutorials that anyone knows of?

google

its pretty easy but i would say playing a round is the best tutorial u can get. Doing it for yourself is always better then reading tutorials

we should do a gfy poker match - have a poker night

2005 is right around the corner, and it doesn't occur to you to look up "poker quick guide" on Google? :thumbsup

I always get the Aces anyway

why would i? it would come up with a huge list of possiblities. i made a quick post here and have a link qualified by someone i 'know' here on gfy.

duh.

You're not alone Quiet. I'm a hardcore Vegas addicted gambler but I don't understand poker. Not only that, there seems to be 1192 different versions of poker for me to not understand. Mai Tai, Texas Holdem, Long John Stud... I don't get it.


I'll stick to roulette and blackjack.

It takes a minute to learn and a lifetime to master

Hold'em is the only one that counts :)

blackjack (used) to be my game too. i quit playing around 4 years ago though.

i can't believe the size of the bets they're doing - hundreds of thousands of dollars in the pot. damn.

They are not betting with real money.

bad crack?

I couldn't have said it better myself...

Just play. The more you lose, the more you learn!:thumbsup

join partypoker (it's free) and play using "play" money !

stay away from the "real money" games, they will get you !
( i know it happend to me ) anyway have fun
:glugglug

are you sure you dont want to tell us how you watched it from a private jetplane while doing rails of coke as pure as the driven snow, while throwing midgets off the plane with no chute, 'just because you can' ?

Quiet - On another thread you mentioned getting Sex.com.

I'm on that target next. Hit me up if you want to join the posse. Not going to be easy but I think we can make him an offer he won't be able to refuse.


:Graucho

No.

Tournament chips do not represent real dollars.

In the 2004 WSOP Greg Raymer had over 25 million in chips at the end but only won $5 million. Poor guy.

i got $4 on it, lmk if i can get in on it too, k?

I don't know why but the mental picture of this has me rolling on the fucking floor laughing! :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I figured out the rules by watching the world poker tour. I've never played for real money. Don't fancy myself as much of a player.

My group had purchased it last night :) Should be in escrow in a few days.
