Hi Taaa,
Check out the
free games that were just installed here at
LCB. It's a good way to practice. There is texas hold em and video poker.
Also most poker sites off
free play money...that is probably your best way to learn. As far as video poker..your dealt 5 cards...hold the cards you want to keep and hit draw. If your not familiar with what makes a poker hand here is a the list according to rank:
Royal Flush: A K Q J 10-same suit
Straight Flush: five cards in sequence-same suit
Four of Kind: four cards the same rank
Full House: three cards the same with two cards the same ex: AAA33
Flush: Any 5 cards in the same suit
Straight: five cards in sequence-any suit
Three of a Kind: three cards that are the same rank
Two Pair: Two cards the same rank with another two cards the same rank
One Pair: two cards the same rank
I hope this helps you.
Give it a try and NO i don't think you should stay away from it! Its a nice change of pace from
slots and its more a game of skill.
Try it out and let us know how you do!
