VCPoker ? nice site and my sign up bonus fly like wind in 3 hours. Never play at fulltilt. Im play at epokerusa.com, strange rules, folded but victory chip growing up lol, win poker hand but you can lose vchip. Payment prosessor only with check, so you must got deposit from freeroll. Im play i4poker, nice site. And sportingbet.com, its place the last poker site when i want to play poker online, make me start over from $0 more of 5 times.

to be honest its not the best site for freerolls. the have ones every day that you can do for points, and they also have free ones that don't cost points, but you need to make the final 3 tables just to win a ticket to a freeroll that has cash prizes. but they also have lots of tournaments for just playmoney, which is a great way to learn poker strategy or just have fun. enjoy!

I play at quite a few. Lately I've been at GamesGrid and PokerStars. It depends on where I have money from commissions I earn or free money I win(http://www.holdemrocks.com). I like freerolls but it's just a little better to play with real cash.

This it´s up to you. I really love play poker but i play for the money too. In my opinion poker has to be played with money. To avoid some stupid hands... There are many sites that offer you same money to begin if you want, let me now!

poker tips Since XIXth century, poker games became very popular among the people and day after day its popularity is rising more and more. More and more people are trying their luck and skills with the best games that poker can offer. It is very simple game that can be played with more than two players and not more than ten. This poker game was invented to fasilitate its rules and to make the learning fast and pleasant for all who want to be familiar with the game and for all, who do not have a lot of free time to learn the complicated rules of the other games. A lot of things can be said about poker tips. This is exciting and challenging game that all online and offline card rooms and saloons are ofering to their players. Online poker rooms offer this game for free and for real money. Something more, these real money games give you real prizes and if you are new player, you can take advantage of the bonus that the room is offering for your first deposit. Earning such kind of extra money is pleasant and it can bring you a lot of joyful hours online with friends from all over the world. There is one important thing that we have to know about this excitement. Today this is the most popular game over the globe and almost all poker players want to master their skills in this game. For that reason a lot of online poker rooms offer fantastic tournaments and ring games for all fans. poker tips Rules The rules of poker tips are quite simple and everyone could learn it for several hours playing. First of all, you have to remember that this game is played with a standard card deck of 52 cards, devided in four swits with 13 cards in each. The swits are equal and they do not matter when two players have the same cards from different swits. The game begins with Blinds. Blinds are forced bets that are posted in each game by the first two players sitting to the left side of the dealer. In poker tips the blinds replace the ante that is more used in the calssic games such as Seven Card Stud and Draw poker. The position of the blinds and respectively of the dealer moves clockwise after each game. Once the blinds are posted, each of the players receive two cards face-down. According to the cards they hold, they must make their first bets. The options that each of them has are four - they can check, fold, call and raise. If the player decide to check, he passes his turn without paying but he is still in the game. If the player fold, this means that he finishes for the initial game and does not compete for the pot that will be formed during the game. If the player calls, he declares that he is ready to pay the maximum for the moment, but he does not think to go over it. He continues the competition. The last option, raise, is used by the player who thinks that he has big chance to win and for that he bets more than the maximum amout bet for the moment. These options are available in each of the betting rounds. Once the players decalre what they will do, the dealer deals three cards face-up in front of all players - in the center of the table. In poker tips, these cards are known as community cards and they are used by all of the players that are around the table. Then another betting round occure, where all active players, which means all players who have not folded, must bet. After that, in two similar rounds, the dealer deals the last two cards. After the last dealing round, all active players must make their last bets. The winner is the player with the highest hand made by five of the cards dealt in the game. poker tips Tips If you want to be successfull in poker tips, you have to remember several things that are very important for your career. First of all, you have to be familiar with the rules and as you can see, they are not that complicated or hard to remember. To get familiar with the game, you can play several online games that are for free. Where you can find such kind of poker games? Well, all online poker rooms offer free version of the games that they have for real money. The free practice is unlimited and you can play it as long as you feel happy to do it. Another useful thing that you have to know is that it is a game of skills, not of luck so you have to improve some of your personal skills such as mathematics, psychology and your concentration. You need the maths to calculate the odds - they are the probabillity that you have to win the current game. Psychology is needed to be able to recognize what kind of players you are dealing with. Body language can be placed in this category. You know that every little gesture that we make prepresents some part of our thoughts and the way we are feeling without intending to do it so. So, from here you can understand why it will be helpful for you to know it - all of your oponents will be an open book for you. Not in the last place we will mention that in poker tips it is very important to behave properly. There are several do and don't in the etiquette that you have to follow around the table. First of all, you have to remember that you are playing with real people who are just like you. Never say things that you do not want to hear from the others. This is one of the main things in the comunications between the people at all and here is not the place where this is an exception. Do not be noisy and do not be too familiar with your opponents, because this will make them bad impression and be sure that this will be your last time when you are playing with them.

Rather than play online I usually play on a bar league which is one where you play for points not gambling for money. I live in NJ USA so it is the holdempokerleague.com the locations are listed on the site. I sometimes play again for points not money on pogo.com but I have not really played on the online sites for money.
