“Poker Training for the blind…
When an uneducated in poker person walks into a room filled with poker professionals, dealers, tables and is greeted with the words, it’s easy a feeling of “oh my word, what am I doing here?” the worlds eyes seem focussed on how useless you think you are. My initial thought was so far off I can barely explain.
What an evening, All Africa Poker has opened my eyes to a world of skill and with the simple practical explanation of the world of poker, I am officially addicted!
The evening started with a light introduction to the skill of poker, my table filled with people who were slightly more versed in poker, and my eyes bulging from the fear of what I entered myself for… With professional poker trainers on hand to advise what the best route is, it started seeming less intimidating. After three hands the bug bit and bets got higher, to my delight, I wiped out a player by taking a chance, he was not impressed, but very complimentary that I took the risk and with his all in I managed to take him out with a three of a kind hand. It felt like I had just won the whole training tournament, which was great.
Even though I did not win the evening, I now have no fear for the game and will be playing regularly, hopefully I will see you at a table soon for a showdown, what a great evening, thanks All Africa Poker, I feel far more comfortable and ready to learn more about this fantastic game!”
