Funny how suddenly everyone starts talking about poker when the World Series of Poker (WSOP) is on or has just finished.  Also, how suddenly there are loads of poker experts out there, who know it all because they saw it on WSOP..

Poker rooms must see a huge spike in poker interest due to WSOP.  After watching all the action they would want to try their own luck at a poker tourney.  With all the money that gets spent on advertising and promoting the WSOP, its become a big thing.  S’pose that a lot of people are now aware of poker thanks to the WSOP being televised and promoted.  All that money spent does manage to get the word out.

I enjoy the social aspect of poker and the interaction that you can have with a few friends whilst playing.  Its also a mentally challenging game that keeps you thinking of how well your hand can do compared the other players.

Its a long time to wait until November to see who will be the overall world poker champion…
