Best Poker Hands
The first thing a poker rookie learns is the 10 winning poker hands in standard 5-card poker. Top of the pile is the royal flush, the top 5 cards in sequence of the same suite, the 10, jack, queen, king and ace. This is the hand all players dream of. The second in the list of best poker hands is a straight flush; this is a 5-card sequence of the same suit, 2-6 of clubs for example. Next up is the self-explanatory 4 of a kind, 4 kings, 4 seven’s, 4 two’s etc.
The full house comes next in the list of best poker hands. This is effectively 2 of a kind and 3 of a king, e.g., 2 three’s and 3 sevens. A flush is next, any 5 cards of the same suit but in any order so they don’t have to run in sequence. A straight is a sequence of 5 cards but of different suits. Three of a kind is exactly as its name suggest, 3 sixes etc. Two pair is 2 pairs in the same hand, two of a kind is basically a pair and bottom of the list in best poker hands is high card, the singularly highest card you have in your hand.

no downloads, free poker
Casinos are part of a fast growing business department, with all the games inside them: roulette, blackjack, slots and other games, but mostly because of the poker game, which is by far the most popular casino game. It is obvious why this growth takes place: there is a lot of money involved…some cant control and lose everything they have, others get rich on the back of losers or on the back of the casinos, this happens too. Everybody has their eyes on this money-involved type of poker and the outcome of this is that free games are left aside and are harder and harder to find.
“What is the purpose of free casino games?” you will ask. Well, first of all beginners need to play for while before starting to bet real money on poker tables. And even more, some people will never bet real money on poker but they do enjoy playing the game, so they are looking for free poker games. The first thing some would do is downloading a poker game and start playing. But you want to play with other real players, not some dumb computer. If the game has a multiplayer option then its all good, but wouldn’t it be easier to just access a website and start playing you favorite game? I bet it would.
So, what I’m trying to do here is to give you a hint where you can practice poker with other real persons without having to deposit any money at all. The first place you can try is casino-games.pogo.com, this is exactly what we talked about earlier: no downloads, free poker: interact with other players and battle to the end. Another great place to free gambling games such as poker is wizardofodds.com. Visit this website and play for fun or practice all you want before starting the real deal. I was saving the best for the and so here goes my favorite: www.pokerloco.com. Great interface and graphics, a lot of players and good advices for the beginners. Have fun!

Play Poker Tournaments
Poker tournaments are contests in which players are playing a certain style of poker and winners are decided by playing poker. The tournaments can take place on the internet or in different locations like real casinos. If you want to play poker tournaments you need to know that there are numerous types of poker tournaments that require different fees for participation or qualification in a tournament. Also there are poker tournaments that charge no fee and they are known as free rolls. These types of free roll tournaments are held frequently in every poker room and to participate in them you will need to create an account in that poker room.
Even though there are some tournaments that do not charge an entrance fee, you can’t participate in them unless you make your first deposit. You can play poker tournaments in free rolls tournaments without paying any cash, and you can win important amounts of money because the tournament stakes are usually high. On the internet you can find dozens of daily poker tournaments held in different poker rooms with great cash awards but some of them require an entry fee or calcification. There are also international poker tournaments where the stakes and the prizes are very high and professional poker players meet.

Pot Limit Omaha for Beginners
In Pot Limit Omaha, each player is dealt four personal cards, and then five community cards (a la Texas Holdem, consisting of the ‘flop’: the first three community cards; the ‘turn’: fourth community card; and ‘river’: the last community card). The objective is to create the best possible five-card-hand consisting of TWO of the personal cards, and THREE of the community cards.
Here’s a sample hand. You are dealt, for your personal cards: Ac Ad 9s Ks. Of these four cards, you will be able to use either AA, AK, A9, K9, etc, with the community cards. The flop comes 10h, Jh, 4d, the turn 5c, and the river, Qc, for a board of 10h, Jh, 4d, 5c, Qc.
Now it’s time to mix and match. You determine (correctly) that the Ad and Ks in your personal cards sync up with the 10h, Jh, and Qc in the community cards for the nut straight: Ad, Ks, Qc, Jh, 10h.
The key strategy to Pot Limit Omaha poker is to bet the big hands big and quickly fold the weaker ones. In Omaha, there are so many variations of hands that any holdings that aren’t the ‘nuts’ (best possible hand) or penultimate nuts should be folded immediately. The downfall of most beginner PLO players is that they overvalue mediocre hands. For example, if in a ring game or poker tournament you hold Ks Kc 10d 9d and the board reads Kh 4c 5d 7s Qh, you bet into it and then someone reraises you, then you must fold! Your trips are useless. Almost surely someone has a 6,8 or 3,6 for the straight.
Bet the nuts big with huge pot sized bets but, if a straight or flush draw has come in, feel comfortable in folding beaten hands to a hefty bet. Countless tournaments have been won by PLO players who simply bet big when they have the mortal, stone-cold nuts, and fold when they don’t. The types of hands that you should play in PLO are hands that have potential to make many straights and flushes; hands like Qc 10s 8c 9s are golden, whereas a hand like Js Jh 7c 3d is practically garbage. Even if the J does hit and you make trips, three Jacks in Omaha is a precarious hand at best.
By implementing this rudimentary PLO strategy, a beginning player can clean up the lower-limit PLO games.
