I have been betting poker now for about five years, I’ve bet cards my entire life beginning with games of Gin Rummy for pennies with my Grand Mother, to all of the various types of Brag and general random games such as Go Fish, Crash and one so beautifully called, card on head game. I used to always win, whatever casino game we were wagering and although I liked to call it skill, it was extremely difficult to warrant considering the randomness of the games we were betting, so I was over joyed to accept I was having a protracted run of good fortune.

Then came Poker, or additional importantly Texas holdem Poker, made popular by a bunch of Texas card players in the 60’s and since grown into one of the biggest card phenomena ever observed. Poker is totally the new black, it truly is uber cool with numerous of the world’s leading stars racing to have their name connected with it. Just a quick flick through the TV channels these days and it is possible to not escape from poker, and needless to say there’s the fabled World Series of Poker, the Holy Grail and Mecca all combined into one for each individual player.

So with all of this new discovered popularity, with so many Tv shows dedicated to poker, and magazine and book shelves loaded up with high quality material written by the top minds on poker, when are people going to understand that this casino game is all about position!?

Perhaps I need to not obtain so worked up about this, after all the more people who have difficulty with the subtle techniques and approaches needed for winning regularly at Hold’em, the far better it is for everyone else, right? I mean, if they can not be bothered to look at all of the offered information about why location is so essential, why really should we bother? We ought to just be happy there is an additional fish at the table!

It is true, we must not reward idleness with guidance and help. Even so, I liken this to a helpful game of football. Naturally the stakes are not so good, but when you see a gambler struggling, you guide them, offer them a few advice, ultimately showing them a way to like, love and be thankful for the casino game as much as you. I am asking all house gamblers to do exactly the same thing with their poker friends who haven’t quite grasped the nuances of playing position. Support them to grow their respect for the casino game. Naturally, do not attempt to try this one in your neighborhood gambling establishment, the sharks will not take pleasure in you instructing their supper how to swim!
