I need material, is poker ok?
From the desk of Samy,
Oh oh oh, I need help right away! I don’t have any ideas nor inspiration! I need them so that I can go ahead blogging, this is tormenting me! I’m sorry but I will use my only available ace right now, poker.
I started to play poker on July 2008, about 25th aprox. ‘cos I was really bored at home (see my holidays 2008) I signed up through a website: pokerstrategy.com (this is my referral link, I don’t hide it, but if you join, it doesn’t cost you anything and I can earn a little bit, it’s fair, isn’t it?;))
Why do I started to play poker and besides, through PS (Pokerstrategy)? The answer is because PS gives you an initial bonus of 50$ so that you can start playing without spending any money! It’s a bit unbelievable, isn’t it? I’ll explain you how it works.
When you play poker online, each hand has a rake. This is a fee imposed by the casino (if not, casinos wouldn’t earn anything). Normally fees are between 2-5% of the pot. It means if we gotta a pot of 1$, casino will earn 0.03$ and the winner 0.97$. If we join through PS, casino will earn 1-3% instead of 2-5%. Why? Because the difference will ended up at PS! So, PS earns money when you play and generate rake if you are its referral and the way to achieve that is giving you 50$ so that you can start to play poker. You can read the whole explanation and details here.
This bonus was the main reason but PS has a lot of other things to consider such as good forums (where professional players value your hands 24/7), strategies based on statistics (really, really good) and much more things that you should take a look at if you wanna start playing real money poker for free. In the following posts I’ll explain how my evolution is going on. One fact: 130$ in my bankroll ;).
