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 styles of Brag and general random games such as Go Fish, Crash and one so gracefully called, card on head casino game. I used to usually win, whatever game we were wagering and even though I liked to call it skill, it was extremely difficult to justify considering the randomness of the games we were wagering, so I was happy to accept I was having a prolonged run of luck.

Then came Poker, or more importantly Texas holdem Poker, made famous by a group of Texas card gamblers in the 60’s and since developed into one of the biggest card phenomena ever experienced. Poker is totally the new black, it is super awesome with many of the world’s top super stars racing to have their name connected with it. Just a quick flick through the TV channels these days and you are able to not escape from poker, and certainly there’s the fabled World Series of Poker, the Holy Grail and Mecca all rolled into one for each and every individual player.

So with all of this fresh found popularity, with so several Tv programmes dedicated to poker, and magazine and book shelves loaded up with quality material written by the top minds on poker, when are persons going to understand that this casino game is all about position!?

Perhaps I really should not have so worked up about this, after all the much more folks who have difficulty with the delicate techniques and approaches needed for winning consistently at Hold em, the far better it can be for everyone else, correct? I mean, if they can’t be troubled to read all of the available info about why position is so important, why need to we bother? We should just be happy there’s an additional fish at the table!

It is true, we really should not reward procrastination with advice and help. Nonetheless, I liken this to a helpful casino game of football. Naturally the stakes are not so high, except when you notice a gambler struggling, you help them, provide them several advice, ultimately showing them a method to love, like and be thankful for the game as much as you. I am askin all house players to do a similar thing with their poker friends who have not quite got a handle on the nuances of betting position. Assist them to grow their respect for the casino game. Naturally, do not attempt to try this one in your local gambling house, the sharks will not take pleasure in you teaching their lunch how to swim!
