Intermission - Game of the stars

I'm sure by now, everyone has seen or at least heard of the game that has risen from the dark and smoky back rooms to the forefront of respectability. That game is poker. Movies stars, TV personalities, and the rich-and-famous all seem to be participating in a poker tournament somewhere and they are being televised doing it.

Many play and give their winnings to their favorite charity. That's a good idea since they are quite often independently wealthy anyway, and this can bring the particular charity some much needed funds plus some publicity.

Even the everyday poker player can now participate for any reason they choose and not feel like a scourge of society. This game has gained respectability. If it's your interest, you can read and learn more on the poker blog or become a member of a poker forum. Learn tips about how to play the game, rules of the game, and strategies to use. Join others in conversations and fun. Meet like-minded people who can guide you through the game and offer tips and tricks to playing and winning.
