The articles in this series will focus specifically on how poker in casinos differs from what you have learned from playing casino poker games like three-card poker online or at friends’ home games, particularly in what might be termed its “procedural” aspects.
Understanding them might also keep you from losing money by inadvertently breaking a rule during the game. I hope to explain these to you in advance so that you don’t get intimidated or embarrassed. The series of articles ' Casino Poker for Beginners' is intended for people who have played poker online and/or in home games, but have little or no experience playing in a “brick-and-mortar” or at an online casino.Ĭasinos have rules, procedures, and points of etiquette that can trip up players on their first few visits - or at least confuse and mystify them.
