In an effort to help novice players understand more about the sport of poker, the online poker offering from Antigua-licensed Bodog.com has released a special article featuring some facts on the top 20 starting hands in Texas hold’em.
“We all get game fatigue,” read a statement from Bodog.com.
“After a while the cards all start to look the same and we need some time away from the screen or table to recharge our mental batteries and get some of that precious focus back.
“It's also important for poker players to take the time to explore the game outside of the confines of the table. With such a rich history and so many different stories and voices involved, the perspective that players can get from the game's back story can help their play and make them more engaged in the form itself.
“Many players have found that the more they casually think about poker, the better their poker game becomes. See if it works for you when you look at our poker article archives.
“For instance, do you know why an Ace-Queen is called a ‘Doyle Brunson’? What ‘Wayne Gretzky’ has to do with the poker table? Do you know what ‘American Airlines’ means in poker? What about ‘Piano Keys’? Do you know how to rank your pre-flop poker hands for maximum playability? Bodog.com’s guide to the top 20 online poker hands can take you through all the hands and give you a little history.”
