Poker a social game

Poker is perhaps the most misunderstood phenomena of our culture today. People seem to think that it is about dirty tricks and the weak ruin.

It may come as a surprise, but in today's poker, it is not permissible for a player to bet the car keys. You can not throw in the ownership certificate for the villa. Not even if you want.

The game is surrounded by detailed rules to ensure that everything goes right. Anyone who has a great deal of money can not force an opponent out of a hand, as in the wild west days.

And you do not gamble away a lot of money. You can play for 25-trout. For the poker sites can be played with chips that are worth one cent each. Many do.

At the game between friends, or on the job after working hours, the operation is often a HUNDRED-KRONOR or two. If you lose has nothing in particular happened. They say hello and bikes home. Many do.

But it is true, the state casino operations is significantly higher. They should not go if you are not willing to risk at least a few thousand dollars.

Many are not.

Heygambling is also a good blog!
