I’ve been wagering poker now for about 5 years, I have played 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 casino game. I used to usually win, whatever game we were playing and even though I liked to call it skill, it was really hard to justify thinking about the randomness of the games we were wagering, so I was happy to accept I was having a long-term run of luck.

Then came Poker, or much more importantly Texas hold’em Poker, made popular by a bunch of Texas card gamblers in the sixties and since developed into one of the biggest card phenomena ever seen. Poker is totally the new black, it’s uber awesome with a lot of of the world’s top superstars racing to have their name connected with it. Just a quick flick via the TV channels nowadays and it is possible to not escape from poker, and of course there’s the fabled WSOP, the Holy Grail and Mecca all combined into one for every individual player.

So with all of this fresh discovered recognition, with so several Tv shows devoted to poker, and magazine and book shelves filled up with quality material written by the foremost minds on poker, when are men and women going to learn that this game is all about position!?

Perhaps I need to not obtain so worked up about this, after all the a lot more individuals who have difficulty with the subtle tactics and methods required for succeeding consistently at Texas hold’em, the much better it truly is for everyone else, right? I mean, if they can not be troubled to look at all of the offered details about why position is so essential, why must we bother? We should just be glad there is one more fish at the table!

It is true, we ought to not reward procrastination with guidance and support. On the other hand, I liken this to a friendly game of football. Granted the levels are not so great, except when you see a player struggling, you aid them, offer them a few advice, ultimately showing them a way to love, like and be grateful for the casino game as much as you. I’m asking all home players to do the same thing with their poker friends who haven’t quite grasped the nuances of playing position. Aid them to grow their respect for the game. Certainly, don’t attempt to try this one in your nearby gambling establishment, the sharks will not take pleasure in you teaching their lunch how to swim!
