Live the Dream - How to get started playing poker
'Live The Dream' is a term which in commonly used yet very rarely achieved. Everyone has an image of what they would be doing when they finally experience the true reality of Living the dream.
Whilst the dreaming part is not so hard, but doing something about it is where most people fall short.
An important man once said :
"there are some people who are happy to dig a hole for someone else, but you will only get rich if you pay someone to dig a hole for you'
As with most important men, I can't really tell you what the hole has got to do with playing online poker but I do know that if your dream is playing professional poker or at least making a profit from playing online poker you have come to the right place.
So here is how you can live the dream in Poker.
should read our how to play downloads (I have written the rules of all the main game variations - Texas Hold'em, Omaha, Stud and Draw) I suggest that you learn Texas Hold'em first as it is th e most popualr and more available to new players.
Once you feel you have a grasp of the basic poker rules, the best thing to do is give it a go. At first you will have a small amount of bankroll so you should either play through an online portal site such as LTDPoker who give new players up to $500 free no deposit bankroll. Then avoid playing on cash game sit n go's you will quickly lose your money and will probably not go back to the game again. The best thing is to find an online Poker freeroll tournament that has the fewest number of players in it. again if you play through a portal site such as LTDPoker regularly holds exclusive freeroll tournaments for their players at top rated online poker sites.
Good sites to play on are Party Poker, Paddy Power and Betfair as they have easy to dowload poker software and simple graphic.
Once you have practiced you need to work on your poker strategy and we have a number of articles that can help you on these stages.
Also don't forget to engage in the online poker community, look at forums, blogs and news feeds to increase your knowledge of the best online poker sites to play on and the big prize online poker tournaments you can qualify to for as little as a couple of dollars. Sites on the big networks such as Bwin Poker and Mansion Poker hold daily qualifiers for tournaments worth Millions of Dollars!
Remeber if you pay $2 to buy into a qualifying satelitte, you have a better probability of winning the World Series of Poker than if you buy a lottery ticket. Plus even if you don't win the WSOP you would have earnt some winnings on your way.

What's in a Screen Name?
So how much significance does the choice of online poker screen have? The simple fact that there are posts on blogs and forums all over the internet commenting on the good and worst screen names suggests that if you get the right one you can create a powerful perception and gain a real advantage over other online poke players. With the boom in popularity of Online Poker the chance of getting a real name on the big online poker rooms such as Pokerstars or PartyPoker are slim. Given this fact and the anonymity that Online Poker provides many players use alpha numerical or cultural references when choosing a screen name. Of course chose a name you are comfortable because you may end up wining the World Series of Online Poker and have it written in the history book forever!
The Most Popular names break down into a few categories.
Pro Names
Some players like to take the name of a famous professional player to hopefully intimidate their opponents. This generally has the opposite effect as lets face it if you are going to be good enough to play like a pro you would want your own identity! These player are generally small time fans of poker not serious big stakes players. Female Names Women are often perceived as inferior at the poker table. While it may be true that men win most of the big events, this is simply a case of percentages, take examples such as Annie Duke, Anette Obrestad and Liz Lieu. Male players who take on a feminine handle are likely to be banking on these perceptions; many players are less aggressive or get distracted against a woman.
Fish and Shark Names
The most famous example is probably Dave “DevilFish” Ulliot. Players advertising themselves as fish are employing similar tactics as those who take women’s names. Likewise Shark related names are most often from the same School as the “Pro Name” Players. If you are a shark you do not advertise the fact!
Pop Culture and Counter Culture References
It is a good rule of thumb to avoid political, sexual or potentially offensive references. It may seem funny at the time but if you are to go on and play regular poker you do not want to me perceived as a trashy and put off the sensitive fish. Fictional Characters and celebrity names are becoming more popular. The validity of this depends on the character. A James Bond ref, is probably a new player who will play “Movie Poker” hands, probably easy to draw into a few All ins.
However comedy or classic refs are generally names that have some meaning to the player stemming from their real life such as nicknames or profession. Jumbled NamesA mixture of words and numbers that seemingly have no reference are the smart choice for players who do not wish to present and perceived “Poker Personality” playing behavior.
Poker References
Poker Terminology: Some players use cool poker phrases as their screen name: RiverBeat, FloppedQuads, and JacksUp. Although a few of them are cheesy, the majority of them are some of the more creative names out there. The word “Stud” doesn’t always signify a stud player, but Omaha references are almost always on target. Mousing over an “Omaha” player’s icon to make sure they’re not actually from Omaha, Nebraska is a good idea. If they’re not, chances are they know their game.Clever people tend to be more intelligent. Watch out for these players. An opponent who intentionally misspells suited as “Sooted” might be someone to watch out for. These players are making fun of the fish that like to play a pot with any two suited cards regardless of rank. “But it was soooooooted” is a common way to poke fun at this tendency
