So you want to start playing online poker?


Well, you came to the right place!


My name is Jesse Talton. I would like to consider myself a great poker player, but I'm not. I am just like you or the next person, and sometimes I win, sometimes I don't. Until recently, all I did was lose my money when I went out on the tables. That was until I found partypoker.com. They are the largest online casino in the world, with the best software, biggest pots, and best freebies. That's right, I said FREEBIES! Just last week they gave away a brand new Ferrari in a tournament that didn't cost a dime to enter! Now I'm not going to say that if you go to this site, you're going to strike it rich. Just like any other casino or gambling-style environment, you win some and you lose some. You might hit it big, and you might go home broke. Now let's go over the pros and cons of online poker.

The Pros:


1. No face to face contact. If you don't have a good poker face, it won't matter.
2. Looser players. Online poker is a relatively new addition to the world of gambling, and even the best players are still adjusting.
3. You don't have to go anywhere to play, or wear some outrageous costume. You can win all you want with your feet on the table and a beer in your hand.
4. You can set your own weekly deposit limits, so even if you start losing you can't empty your bank account.
5. Of course, the best for last. You get online secure transfers of your winnings directly into your bank account! No walking out of a casino or your best buddies house with thousands of dollars in cash on you just waiting to get robbed.

The Cons:


1. No face to face contact. They can't see your poker face, but you can't see theirs either.

Now you will notice below that I have listed a couple bonus offers that you can use for your first deposit with your new account. The minimum deposit for partypoker is $50. So if you are going to deposit only $50, then you should click on the $25 bonus banner. If you plan on depositing more than $125, you should check out the second bonus banner. Party Poker will match 20% of your first deposit up to $100. So if you put in $500, they will literally GIVE you $100. This money is yours to cash out or play with. It's up to you!



Now if you aren't that good of a player, or need some help calling your hand, then I suggest you download some of the programs listed below. These programs will dock with your party poker table, and they literally tell you whether or not to fold, call, or raise with what you have. I have used several of these programs, and have listed the ones below that worked for me. Trust me, I lost a lot of money trying to figure out which ones worked and which ones didn't, so hopefully I can save you some time and money by giving them to you. All of these programs are free to try, and I'm confident that you will not be dissapointed in them.
