Why you should play poker online

Playing poker is a fun way to spend some hours on a friday night. Also, poker can be a way of life – many people gain extra by playing poker. Online poker has one huge advantage over any other form of the game (except maybe a family game): it can be done from the comfort of your own home.

When playing online, you don’t have to dress up, drive for minutes, or sometimes hours – you simply sit down in front of your computer, or find a comfortable position on your bed, log on and start playing. You can concentrate more when you are at home – the familiar environment, the lack of annoying noises and cigarette smoke, the music of your choice – all these factors help you stay focused on the game.

Besides comfort, another important reason why you should choose online poker over the real life version is variety. Real life poker rooms may lack your favorite game, or offer it with betting limits you are not willing to choose. In case of online poker the possibilities are virtually limitless – you can find poker tables with all available betting limits, setups, or even create your own poker table with the limits of your choise. If you want to play for free, you can play games in ‘for fun’ mode, for virtual money, but you can choose a no-limit high buy-in table if you wish to act as a high roller.

One of the great advantage of online poker over the real life one is that it is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, every week. In real life poker establishments there can be days when the crowd is unbearable and days when the players don’t even fill a single table. There might be holidays, special occasions when offline poker rooms are closed. This can’t happen in online poker, as the poker room is always available. Business hours are not important – as they say ‘it’s always tea time somewhere in the world’. In online poker rooms you can always find a number of players waiting for another opponent to bet against, even at night – it might be morning on the other side of the Earth.

Online poker has lots of advantages over its real-life counterpart. It’s flexible, variable, with lots of opportunities, and you don’t have to consume fuel and your patience to get there – you just have to push a button.
