A primer for beginners: general concepts for spainfull
On January - 7 - 2012ADD COMMENTS
The large number of new players, attracted the most part by television programs, and the vast amount of information available but very scattered, making mandatory the drafting of a new guide to help elementary level.
This article is written for a range of people ranging from those who have no idea of the game until they know the main thing but still do not have too clear some basic concepts. For ease of reading and understanding of text, the format chosen will be a kind of “frequently asked questions” (better known as FAQ, stands for Frequently Asked Questions ). In addition, questions are divided into broad categories with the objective of providing clarity and simplicity to this guide.
There are so many things that have to learn a player who wants to start and so much information available, it is better to separate them and irlas digested slowly. Thus, each section is divided into a few questions and links of interest. One of the secrets of the game is to take it in stride and learn little, but sure. At first it’s normal to be lost, but is not worrying, in a short time can be controlled most basic aspects which are confined to this game .
General :
What is the poker ?
The poker is a game of cards that encompasses a wide range of variants. It is a game of who wins in the envite who meets the winning numbers according to established rules. For more information see Poker (in English, the Spanish version is pretty poor).
What is the most played variant ?
Despite the fact that probably most people who do not have been initiated in poker may think that the most popular option is to be seen, for example, in the movies of the West (poker closed or 5 card draw in English), thus undoubtedly true is that which is ranked more relevant, and on which to focus mainly this guide is the Texas Hold’em (in English). This name was given because the first place where I have seen his game was in the state of Texas (USA). The second part of its name, Hold’em , in English literally means “Grab”, probably referring to the value that must be taken not to drop the letters and get them to the end. There is a brief introduction to the rules of the Texas Hold’em on this page.
How easy is it to learn to play poker ?
To learn the rules and mechanics of the game just one afternoon. Become an expert will probably take several years.
How easy is it to win poker ?
At the lowest level rivals are minor and it will be easy to overcome. As the level increases, competition is tougher and will require something more to win. This article summarizes what it takes to win (read only as informative as it will analyze in detail most of the subjects on which I later deliveries).
What qualities are necessary for playing poker ?
In principle, it is not necessary to have some extraordinary skills to become a good player. Just a little dedication, patience and interest. Does not require great knowledge of mathematics or have talents for the study, practice is essential to control all aspects of the game. One of the advantages of poker is that so many factors come into play that people of many diverse and highly differentiated capabilities can be great experts. It is not forbidden to a few and anyone can point out with a little effort on your part.
What skills come into play ?
Basically, poker is a game of probabilities. But enough with limited knowledge and elementary probability to play with success. It also will be useful statistics, psychology, strategy, computer (if you play online), management of banking, and so on.
Is poker a sport ?
It is a question that has no clear answer. Largely depends on the concept that takes the sport. An attempt to analyze this issue has resulted in this article.
Why play online ?
Because it is more convenient and cheaper. Just have a computer and an Internet connection (to delve into this later). Moreover, in many places is the only option available. Moreover, if this were not enough, it is usually the most profitable because it can be played on more than one table simultaneously. In this guide we will refer mainly to online poker while many of the issues can be applied to live poker.
Is it safe to play online ?
If we take a minimum security measures and common sense, yes. It will be necessary to have some basic notions of informatics for not being exposed to possible attacks. Are basically the same as if we access our bank accounts from our computer. A good summary can be found in this article (a bit long but very interesting).
It’s fun playing poker ?
To answer this question as best you can do is play for yourself and find out. Not everyone enjoys playing cards, but the fact is that the game has many attractions that make it truly attractive. It’s very competitive, are improving day by day, never to learn something new, requires ingenuity aguzado, stimulates the intellect, you can go climbing level, is known interesting people … Also, you can gain money by the way, This is an extra motivation.
Can you suffer from gambling addiction poker game if ?
To play, as we shall see in subsequent deliveries, there is no need to do it for money. However, if you have a history of other addictions or feel an attraction for excessive and uncontrolled gambling or betting is strongly recommended to stay away from any activity that could endanger the health and economy. For more information on the subject, read this article.
Is poker a game of luck ?
In reality the question should be how much influence the fate? And like almost everything in life depends. A good summary in the words of normal inhabitants of the forums of poker can be found in this article.
At the time I did an approach more crazy and without much regard to the initiation poker online in three articles published on my blog (in humorous tone).
Finally, this is the link for beginners poker network, where you will find more useful information for beginners. In addition, you have at your disposal the forums in which you will respond to any questions that you have that you have not been able to find. The following week we will continue to completing this guide, any questions or suggestions are welcome .

WCOOP: Javier Etayo reaches the final table of Event # 28
On January - 7 - 2012ADD COMMENTS
Javier Etayo ‘eel’ and American living in Spain ‘hithenose’ were, unfortunately, the first fall of the last table.
We had 3 residents in our country among the 65 players who started Day 2 of the tournament. The Poker-Red forero ‘tijuanamix’, the Spaniard Javier Etayo ‘eel’ and the American native of Montclair, New Jersey, ‘hithenose’.
What cerquita was. After attending the removal of forero ‘tijuanamix’ in the 48th position, well pleased was shown yesterday with the $ 3,323 prize, excitement soared when both ‘hithenose’ as Javier Etayo ‘eel’ reached the final table of $ 1,050.
The first to be eliminated was the American ‘hithenose’ which was $ 13,752. Javier Etayo was followed soon after with almost twice as much money as a reward, $ 22,920. Jackpots they are giving out two Austrians finished ‘TheFan83′, second ($ 147,031) and ‘Schildy1984′ brilliant winner (206 280 $).
Three tournaments started yesterday and already in the first, WCOOP-29 265 No Limit Omaha Hi-Lo another final table did not fall because the format only, 6-max, because our fellow ‘quimmmy’ managed to reach the ninth final position. The award of $ 2,794 may not seem too because the prize of this tournament was not very high, but they speak very well of their involvement when compared with the $ 23,555 that claimed himself winner of the tournament, the British ‘ Horns_Halos’.
The WCOOP-30 had a Triple Shootout format, meaning it was played as a series of Sit & Go the winner will qualify for the next phase. The final table has been postponed until today and no Latino representation. The nick loudest among the ten survivors is Jedlicka Nicky ‘RealAndyBeal’.
It was the turn of the 8-game on the WCOOP-31 mixed game tournament that contains the 3 types of Stud (Hi-Lo, Razz and Stud), two in Hold’em (Limit and No Limit), the two Omaha (Hi-Lo and Omaha Pot Limit version) and 2-7 Triple Draw.
In the absence of representatives at the final table or big awards, we are pleased to note the actions of other Poker-Red Forero, ‘diek888′, who finished seventeenth.
The bursting of the night, with the exception of Javier Etayo, took him ‘necora75′ in the tournament $ 55 night. $ 6,741 appropriated very rich thanks to his victory.
With the announcement of the winner of the WCOOP-31 arrived to Ecuador in the series, which consist of 62 tournaments.
After the events of Poker Black Friday, it was feared a negative effect on participation but until today, all the tournaments have exceeded the guaranteed prize pool open at the time of registration.
The mathematical projections point to the 50 million dollars in prizes awarded at the end of the WCOOP. In the first 30 have already surpassed 20 million, and the Main Event will give a huge boost this number. These numbers, although lower than those of 2010, exceeding initial forecasts.
One of the reasons for this success is the reappearance of several U.S. professionals who have taken the opportunity to play the WCOOP for finally deciding to leave the United States and returning to play poker online.

Listening to the Indian and Pakistani generals shaking their little fists at each other, with their little mustaches going up and down, hearing the Indians talk about how their patience is “almost” exhausted — it just gets me down. This limp-wristed crap gives war a bad name.
