Online Poker Guide
Playing online poker has at least two real people playing, while most of the time there are up to eight, or even ten, players at a table. Often there is a waiting list of more players wanting to join the table. In this case as a player leaves a new player is joins the table automatically.
Poker tournaments run regularly and can have have several thousand players at once at different tables. Poker freerolls are free to join and do not require for you to deposit!
When you play online poker you are not playing against the "house" as you do in Blackjack. The "house" makes money by collecting a small fraction of each pot before awarding it to the winner. The beauty of poker is that unlike in the casino the "house" and the player are natural enemies. In the world of online poker the house is a neutral third party.
Online poker is not: Video Poker, the game you see in casinos that looks like a slot machine.
