There is no doubt that the online casinos have brought casino gambling to a much wider audience, and that one casino game in particular has reaped the benefits of that development. Gambling on poker has become one of the most popular online gambling pursuits in Ireland with Texas Hold’em leading the field. Texas Hold’em is the poker format played in almost every major poker tournament in the world, including of course the Irish Open, entries for which have rocketed. Texas Hold’em gambling is not a game for the inexperienced poker player, but it is certainly one of the most exciting poker gambling formats. For those of you who fancy learning this particular version of gambling on poker we have detailed all the rules in our casino games pages, but here is a brief introduction. Texas Hold’em poker entails the use of five community cards dealt face up in the middle of the table which are available to all the players around the table, plus two cards dealt face down to each of the players. The first two cards dealt are the face down cards for each player followed by the first betting round. The community cards are then dealt one at a time face up in the middle of the table with a another betting after each card is dealt. The appeal of gambling on Texas Hold’em is of course the multiple betting rounds, which inevitably leads to bigger pots in each hand, but the fact that each player has seven cards from which to make their final hand also tends to improve the rankings of the hands around the table. Players new to gambling on Texas Hold’em poker need to be aware of the fact that even if the minimum table stake is within their budget, their final outlay to stay in the game will inevitably be far higher than their initial stake. Playing Texas Hold’em poker at an online casino poker network also means that there may be very experienced poker gamblers at the table, and there is no doubt that skill and experience does substantially increase the chances of winning at this particular form of poker gambling.
