Getting Used to Online Poker

Online Poker in an online casino doesn't have to be an intimidating, awkward, or uncomfortable experience. In fact, they are often less intimidating than playing in a Vegas land casino. There is no pressure of the people sitting at the poker table. There is however, a little bit of pressure having to play against a computer clock. There are ways to make online poker more enjoyable, relaxing, and pleasant than playing in a land casino, not to mention more profitable.


One thing people get afraid of in online poker is looking like they do not know what they are doing. However, it's OK to look like a beginning online poker player, especially since there are no faces staring as the poker player makes a move. And chances are that other people in the poker room do not know what they are doing just as much. For the ones that do, it should be obvious, and the beginner should not be at that poker table. This is, by far, the most important rule. No one should worry how others view them. In the end, it doesn't matter. In fact, if someone's goal is to win money and have fun, then it would be great if they could fake the image of a new player even if they are an experienced pro. It is sneaky, but almost guaranteed. Experienced players tend to play more softly, less aggressively, and less competitively against a new online poker player.


The poker player should always act in turn. This is easy to do. The online poker player needs to simply pay attention to where the action is and make sure to bet when it is their turn to do so. Most online poker players can't stand someone who takes forever because they're distracted; or even worse, someone who bets too soon. It is suggested that a couple of seconds are taken before someone acts just to make sure that they are, in fact, acting in turn. Also, a pause before they act will get a beginning online poker player in the habit of thinking about what they're going to and why they are doing it.
