Hi All,

I'm new to this game, but I was just wondering what is the first best step to do before I start playing online poker. I heard some rumours about startup money from the site which you could get at serveral sites to lift your bankroll up.

Can anyone advise me?

Thanks you very much!

The first step to playing online poker games, of course, is signing up for an account at an online poker site and depositing funds into your account. When you log into the poker room software, you'll be presented with a lobby interface that will grant you access to the wide rage of games played on that site. For instance, you'll have to pick from several betting styles, with the most common being:
• No-Limit: a no-limit game is one in which players may wager any amount (above a minimum bet) up to the total cash they have at the table at any time.
• Limit: In limit poker, all bets and raises are restricted to a certain size.
• Pot-Limit: A pot-limit game is one in which players again have the choice of how much to bet, but are limited to increasing bets only up to the current size of the pot (the total amount bet by all players).

The absolute first step in becoming a poker player is deciding what your goal is. Do you want to make a steady side income? Maybe you want to just have some fun, and not worry about making money. Perhaps you have aspirations of playing and winning at the highest limits available. Once you know what you want out of online poker you will be that much closer to reaching that goal.

Select the online poker website which is best for you, it is the most important step before you start playing online poker. After this open a real money account is also very easy and will take only a couple of minutes. Don't make the mistake of expecting to win every time you play. Your goal should be to play to the best of your ability in every session.

I agree with it. Somebody just want to relaxin poker room, somebody want to raise money, somebody want to win in tournaments. First step as for me is to watch games and read about poker strategy of different players. It'will allow to avoid elementary mistakes. Then you can register on some s=casino sites and play for the game sake you can visit asian lotus or allhighrollercasinos.com both give you a possibility to gain your skill. Then you should think about more serious games

As a newbie, I don't think the steady side income would be the first priority. I believe the first step is to learn the game well. To play, enjoy and enhance the skill all at the same time. Then, if you became an enhanced player that would be the best time to think if you would want to use this skill to make an income.

Before just start playing, take some knowledge about the game. You can read the reviews of the gamblers who play poker. Then after getting the know-how, you should play poker. If you are playing it for the fun purpose, then you need not be so conscious but if for money-making purpose, then you must play wisely so as not to lose the bet.
