			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The game of poker has to maintain an image and this image has been generally less favorable in the past. We want to say that poker has had a bad image, but this is changing. Poker is no longer a game for gangsters. Now, even women are playing poker and poker has become a very popular game. Even Hollywood wants to exploit this trend. Currently the making of the sequel of the film directed by John Dahl&#8217;s &#8220;Rounders-The Gambler&#8221; with Matt Damon is in progress. In the past a lot of really good movies have used the poker. One of these is the classic film &#8220;Cincinnati Kid&#8221; with Steve McQueen, released in 1965.</p>
<p>Once poker scenes in films sent negative messages. When you saw the players sitting at the poker table, you could tell immediately that something was &#8211; or would be going &#8211; wrong in no time. One of the guys sitting at the poker table was for sure a bad person, a crook. Something bad would be about to happen.</p>
<p>Gambling in the scenes of Hollywood movies has always been a way to add flavor, and in general it was an element that gave something slightly wicked, if not bad. Poker has certainly an impact on people. There are still those who think it&#8217;s a bad game played by bad people. You can still hear this speech today, although poker is so popular and played by many different people. Why should poker be bad for people? Quite the contrary, there are certainly people who have done well to start playing poker. One of them is definitely Chris Moneymaker. He is a very good example; he won the 2003 WSOP, coming directly from the online poker and never having been in a live poker tournament before. He may have had an advantage, he is an accountant – he has a master&#8217;s degree in accounting. Nothing is more respectable than that. We are very far from pictures of famous gangsters as Bugsy Siegel and others.</p>
<p>Half of young people who appear at the WSOP, hiding their faces behind hooded sweatshirts and hats are probably students of the Ivy League. Poker is a thinking game and must be taken very seriously.</p>
<p>In the American sitcom Grace Under Fire, the personages of Grace claims that women can play poker, because if women are able to fake an orgasm they can also bluff and winning at poker. This has become reality.</p>
<p>And the poker today is also becoming an honest and respectable activity, even a day job!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you play <a title="Riva Poker" href="http://www.rivapoker.com">poker</a> you have to be able to bluff. What does it mean? It means that you win a pot with a worse game than your opponent.</p>
<p>There are 2 different types of bluffs: the total bluff and the semi bluff; the total bluff means that you are playing with nothing and if someone calls you, they would probably win. The semi bluff is when you have nothing but something can arrive on or before the river that would let you win.</p>
<p>So what are the important things to know about bluffing?</p>
<p><strong>First thing</strong>: bluffing too often, your opponents will observe it and they will call you more often. Good thing to do is to bluff on different players and not to do it too many times on the same player.</p>
<p><strong>Second thing</strong> to do: when you bluff, don’t change the way you play usually. If you usually raise a little bit when you have a good game, do it as well when you are bluffing; it will look more real.</p>
<p><strong>Third things</strong>: Bluff when there is something important on the table like a big pot. Most of the good players bluff 2/3 of the pot to get a good return.</p>
<p>Something important is your position: if you are the last player to play, of course you have a great opportunity to observe the game of your adversaries. If no one raises or calls, you can do it but not too often remember.</p>
<p><strong>The continuation bets</strong>:  that is the way to bluff during the flop. Your game is not so good but you raised at the pre-flop and someone called you. So what you have to do at this time it is just to raise more during the flop, raise on the raise of someone else, most of the time it will discourage your opponents and you will win through it.</p>
<p><strong>At the river</strong>. If you raised and someone is raising more than you, the best thing to do it is just to fold, it means they have probably something better! You raised and someone called you! It can be dangerous too because they can have a better game than you. You have to observe what your opponents are doing because it is the way to win.</p>
<p>What is a nice call: your technical game is to raise a little bit when you have a good game. But, because you want to bluff and scare your opponent, you decide to raise a lot. If someone calls you on it and he has an average game. We call that a nice call.</p>
<p>So don’t hesitate to bluff when you are the last person to play and no one is raising but be careful about raising too much because it can be your weakness as well.</p>
<p>Good luck and train yourself. You can also practice on internet with <a title="Online Poker" href="http://www.poker770.com/en/">online Poker</a> for free.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Unlike other <a href="http://www.casinobet.com/eu/" title="Casino Bet"><strong>Casino Bet</strong></a> games, poker is not a game of chance or luck. It is a game of chance combined with mathematical say some experienced players, others argue that it is the art and the how to observe and to be more cunning than others. It&#8217;s a game that requires some concentration and a knowledge of maps. We can say that <a title="poker" href="http://www.poker770.com/en/" target="_blank">poker</a> is not based on luck, otherwise we would not see the same players all the time on the tables of major tournaments. They reached this stage thanks to years of learning and attendance on online poker rooms. We can&#8217;t immediately be at the same level as Daniel Negreanu or Phil Ivey, they are not born professionals. So, to assist poker insiders, www.the-guide-poker.co.uk is pleased to offer them its services throughout their learning of poker.</p>
