Why online Poker Tournaments are better

Author: Simon Dexter

Online poker rocks and here’s just ten (of many) reasons why it’s more fun to play from the comfort of your own home.

Safety first. Play at a reputable poker lounge like the one at littlewoospoker.com and you can leave with your winnings whenever you want. No sideward glances or fearing for your life. Just scarper with your money and you, your family and the cat are nice and safe.

No one knows you. Playing online Texas Hold’em is completely anonymous. If you don’t want anyone to know you, play a little bit of poker now and again then they won’t know. If you’re making £100,000 a month as a professional or playing for a few pennies then nobody will be any the wiser.

The best way for a newbie. For a novice it’s the best way to play poker. No nervousness around the table, no catty comments from other players, no one laughing at your mistakes and no fearing for your life when you win a huge pot off a big bruiser.

Online poker is timeless. No getting kicked out late at night and no need to go banging on the door to get some action at the local rooms. Play when you want, as long as you want.

Wear what you want. No more having to wear a jacket or a tie (or that ten gallon hat you like to slip on). Online poker means you can don what attire you like, when you want. Hell, go naked if you want – though that does bring a whole new meaning to strip poker.

Lower Stakes. Play online and you will be able to start off in low stakes games until you get the feel for the game of Texas Hold’em. Why risk more money at live games when you don’t need to? Remember, poker is fun

Faster play. Online poker is much faster than in real life. The dealer flings those cards at great speed and there is never a need for a re-deal. Play is quicker and it sharpens the brain. No more waiting round for the slow players to eventually decide to fold.

No dealers to tip. Okay, you might like to slip the dealer a couple of quid but online this is not a consideration. No more awkwardness, feeling of uncertainty and possible embarrassment. The computer does not want your money!

Better shuffling. Online shuffling has been proven to be more random than at casinos. Sophisticated tracking software makes collusion and cheating difficult to impossible.

And the most important (in my opinion) ………..No poker face. It doesn’t matter if you have a rubbish poker face and can’t control your emotions when you see pocket rockets or try and bluff with an unconnected seven three. Do what you want – whoop in delight or kill the cat. No one knows or cares. On second thoughts, don’t kill the cat.
