Can't read my, can't read my, no he can't read my online poker face

I've never considered myself much of a poker player, outside of my circle of friends (inside the circle, I'm a player of Hellmuthian proportions). I play poker tournaments online while I watch hockey, I play cash games when I'm watching Family Guy, and I pay very little attention to the habits and tendencies of other players. And if my machine didn't beep when it was my turn, I'd probably fold more hands than a child labourer in a glove factory.

I'm certain if I paid more attention to all the free rolls and the bonuses and all the offers that popped up or scrolled off my screen, I would have more funds in online poker account, and have fewer needs to deposit funds in order to play. Hell, I bet (and I do more than I should) that if I took the time to read a review or two, I would be able to maximize bonus offers, earn a better return on my betting investments, and maybe even win a free t-shirt or two. But fortunately what I lack in gambling acumen I make up for in luck, and despite not really knowing anything about online casinos, I still manage to win the odd pot.

Online gaming has come a long way since I used to gamble in Hi-Lo games for login time on local BBSes. What I've learned (other than not to play Hi-Lo games) is that finding eight other faceless (they actually have cartoon faces), nameless (they have nicknames), chumps with as much of a clue about playing tournament poker isn't as hard as it seems. But if I were smarter (I'd have written a program to write this article for me), I'd probably find a decent gambling portal and read what they have to say about the online casinos, because, well, they're the equivalent of gambling nerds, and have a pretty decent understanding of how these Internet poker and gaming sites operate. They can tell you who has the best register bonus, or who offers free plays for chances to win seats at real-life poker tournaments, or who has the sweetest deal on free hats.

I'm not sure if you're going to find much about Hi-Lo (perhaps you could download a torrent of Card Sharks), but if you surf around gaming review sites like http://www.best-online-casino-reviews.com, you'll probably find a worthy gaming site on which you can test your skills against some of the world's best cartoon-faced nicknamed anonymous poker players. You might even find me sitting at one of those tables barking about the lack of decent online strip poker casinos.
