The new age of poker

Poker has become huge in the past few years. Poker has always had its popularity in time, but recently it becoming huge. Dozens of online poker sites, TV poker shows, tournaments that hundreds of people join in with prizes up to millions of dollars. Poker proes are becoming celebrities. People are getting the bug to join in and win big money in these tournaments. Joining a tournament is getting easier too. You can buy your way in or you can play satellite games sometimes for little money.

I have even gotten the bug, I don't expect to play in a tournament though, but I do like to play for fun. Poker is a game of luck, but also takes skill. You can win by getting good cards, but you can also win hands by out witting other players.

This is the new age of poker.
