Hey Bloggers,
How are you all today?
I am busy busy busy in this new year and the good old English weather is making it as uncomfortable as possible. I shouldn't complain though, I for one *touch wood* am avoiding the floods at the moment and my heart goes out to those who have had to leave their homes again.
Today's post is the last one fo the mini articles I had prepared for you! Hard to believe I have completed a series of ten already. Hope you have been enjoying them and this last one looks at online poker bonuses.
There is a massive range of online poker bonuses and hopefully this information will help you narrow it all down and make sense of it so you can choose the best room available. If you want to find more about online poker be sure to check out me favorite poker forum, the people there are pro's and many will have the most up to date advice on where to and where not to play online poker.

Almost every casino offers bonuses, incentives and comps to players so that they keep coming back, but unfortunately, these are offered only to the so called high rollers. However, it is not the same now because there are sites offering online poker bonuses to players who play good cards. Players can start to receive such bonuses the moment they sign up to become a member of any such website. For instance, the very first online poker bonus for the players would be a cash amount that will be an addition to their initial deposit made on the account on that site. This means that there is more cash to start playing with. Once a player starts gambling on that site, he or she can enjoy more bonuses for online poker. This includes special prizes that are given every day along with free entries to tournaments, with more money or other special tournament opportunities.
Online poker bonus is one of the most important reasons why so many people are indulging in the online poker rooms. Internet poker rooms provide the convenience to play from the comfort of the house and players have secured accounts, with winnings paid to the players promptly. As far as games are concerned there are a lot of gaming options available for the players and they can enter any tournament they want to. They can either play for low stakes or high stakes. Online poker room offers convenience, exciting games, tournaments and great bonuses.
If you want to become eligible for online poker bonus, first you need to sign up with a poker website. Different websites offer different bonuses. Before you become a member of any site make sure that the bonus offered is beneficial. Follow the rules of the site so that you can receive your bonus.

Online Poker Vs Offline Poker
Hello Everyone,
Hope everyones weekend was good, I certainly had an eventful one.
We had an office Christmas party, lots of fun and some great food but also very embarrassing for certain members of the team. Anyway the less said about that the better.
There will no doubt be a lot of people gearing up for their own Christmas do's over the next few weeks, I think the best advice is to just ban cameras, they are annoying and don't do anyone justice.
I am updating the mini-articles today with a new one about the differences between online and live poker. This article will be of use to players who have only played one form of the game and need to know how to prepare them selves to play the other.
Personally I do prefer live poker but online poker has a hell of a lot of advantages and convenience. WassOnline actually host their own live poker tournaments in professional casinos around the world. I would highly recommend you take part in such an event but make sure you have some practice first!

With the rise in the popularity of poker in the last two years, poker lovers have now got several alternatives to choose from while considering the place to get their poker fix. Most people love the casino culture, but many prefer playing at home too. It depends upon different individuals and their preferences, as both have their own pros and cons.
While distinguishing between online poker and offline poker, the first factor to be considered is the incidentals involved. It involves expenses that go outside your bankrolls and which you may incur while playing poker. Incidentals are one of the most determining factors due to which many poker players prefer to play online than offline. It includes the transportation charge, food and drinks that are often purchased when people go to casinos to play poker. Besides, it also involves parking fees and tips. However when you play online, you need not spend on extra things like these, as you can easily play online poker for hours from anywhere and besides you also need not pay a virtual tip. In casinos, though it is not mandatory to give tips to anyone, but it is a courtesy to tip your dealer or the waitress serving cocktails each time you win a pot. It is observed that parking attendants, chip runners and floor people also offer better service when tipped, which usually tends to add up by the end of the evening.
Online poker also offers the benefit of data management as compared to offline poker. In case of a casino session, you may vividly remember the highlights, the times when you went wrong or did a brilliant job, but you would probably not remember the exact play of each hand. Besides if you play continuously, chances are that you would not be sure what you figured about certain opponent in case you play the person again. But in case of online poker, you can easily feed input notes on your opponents that will be there if you log in to play again.

A New Poker Place
Hey all,
Hope everyone is well. I am currently de-stressing after a day of not-so-fun filled frolics :)
I bring good news however. My good friends over at WassOnline have given me the latest info into their latest project, WassPoker!
WassPoker is a piece of internet poker software that is soon to be launched and filled with eager players. It has been produced to give online poker players a chance to play entertaining poker games in a reliable, appealing environment. To celebrate it's launch WassPoker are holding a special $500 freeroll tournament, it's pre-register only so hop over now and get your name on the list to win $500 for free.
WassPoker will also be committed to holding fantastic events like their opening one on a regular basis and have already rumored additional launch offers with total prizes over $2,500!
The great thing about WassPoker is that it has been built with community ideals that have emerged from WassOnline. This means there is very much an emphasis on building a comfortable community for all players. Dave 'Doc' Sharpe (marketing manager) mentioned himself that they have been working especially hard to make players feel "at home".
I have already signed up so I will see some of you online :) The first $500 is mine!
In other news, I have been enjoying a few games of real life poker with my friends. We played Tuesday an I am happy to announce I won for a change :) pulled off a pretty good comeback to. I was definitely chip looser after the first half an hour but I came back with a few excellent hands (one in which I totally bluffed my brother to beat his straight). I also had a few lucky river cards, but I suppose you have to every now and again right?
Good luck to everyone this week and don't forget that excellent offer from WassPoker!
