When will You Going to Learn that Hold’em Poker is About Seating!
I have been wagering poker now for about 5 years, I’ve wagered cards my entire life starting with games of Gin Rummy for pennies with my Grand Mother, to all of the various styles of Brag and basic random games such as Go Fish, Crash and one so beautifully called, card on head game. I used to usually win, whatever game we were playing and even though I liked to call it skill, it was extremely hard to warrant thinking about the randomness of the games we were wagering, so I was pleased to accept I was having an extended run of luck.
Then came Poker, or far more importantly Texas holdem Poker, made popular by a group of Texas card players in the 60’s and since developed into one of the largest card phenomena ever experienced. Poker is totally the new black, it’s ultra cool with numerous of the world’s top super stars racing to have their name connected with it. Just a quick flick via the TV channels nowadays and you can not escape from poker, and naturally there is the fabled WSOP, the Holy Grail and Mecca all rolled into one for each single gambler.
So with all of this fresh found popularity, with so quite a few Television programmes devoted to poker, and magazine and book shelves filled up with quality material written by the foremost minds on poker, when are people going to understand that this game is all about position!?
Perhaps I need to not get so worked up about this, after all the far more people who wrestle with the delicate techniques and strategies needed for succeeding regularly at Hold’em, the better it’s for everyone else, right? I mean, if they can’t be bothered to look at all of the obtainable data about why position is so crucial, why really should we bother? We ought to just be glad there is another fish at the table!
It’s true, we ought to not reward laziness with guidance and aid. Nonetheless, I liken this to a welcoming casino game of football. Naturally the stakes are not so great, except when you see a gambler having difficulties, you support them, provide them a few advice, ultimately showing them a way to love, love and be thankful for the game as much as you. I am calling on all home players to do the same thing with their poker buddies who have not quite got a handle on the nuances of betting position. Support them to grow their respect for the casino game. Of course, do not attempt to try this one in your community gambling house, the sharks will not take pleasure in you instructing their supper how to swim!
