This week’s question is as follows:
Question: What is your favorite online site? Do you play online? Have you made or lost a lot of money playing?
Answer: Texas holdem is fun because it is almost pure strategy. In 7 card, the hand your opponents have are somewhat visible. If he has 3 aces, you know his hand kicks your butt. However, in Hold'em, the only info you know is about how your opponents have acted in the hand and in the past. Are they bluffing? Are you? Are they slow playing the hand? Hold'em, more so than the other poker games I have played is more about how the player acts than what he has. As I am a psychologist, I am really intrigued by that type of game. You can have the worst hand possible and trick your opponents into thinking you have them beat. In 7 card, if you are showing a rainbow 2, 5, 8, Q few are going to be afraid of your hand. In hold'em you just never know…. and the absolute best is when you bluff everyone out of a pot and don't have to show your cards - they have no clue if you were legit or just fleeced them!

I love it because it's more about playing against people than it is about playing you're cards. If you now how and when to bluff, you can win with any two cards in your hand. I play on fulltilpoker.com for fun.

Its all about the adrenaline, you can bluff you can have a great hand and as soon as you open your cards results the other guy has a better hand, as there are more cards showing you have more probabilities of getting a very good game, that means a poker or a full house, in some other poker games you dont have that good games you only get pairs or threes and this makes it much more fun… and no i have never lost a lot of money playing as there are many ways of playing it…
