My favorite place to enjoy the old west glitz, glamour and profits of poker isn’t a Vegas Casino, it’s in my living room logged into Casinofortune.com.

I love their tips and player bonuses but I am no fool, so before I played with my money, I played with theirs. And even before that, I wanted to develop a good understanding of the rules of poker so I could be a disciplined player.

The first thing I made sure to do was to read ALL the rules for each game I wanted to play. It might sound obvious but If you are going to play, make sure the knowledge advantage goes to you and not the house. Once I was comfortable with that. I played the lowest limit games on the site so I could make mistakes and learn without losing real money.

One trick I picked up quickly in my online casino was how impatient the other poker players were with their moves. I realized that if I slow played a bit, other people would rush things and get careless. Take the time to make sure you play the right hand.

If you are like me, you will browse around and learn what the correct hands are for certain situations and then get caught up playing the wrong hand instead of being disciplined and patient enough to make the right play.

Why study strategy if you are not going to use it?

When I play online poker, it all boils down to this. Enjoy the game, stay within your bankroll, know at least a little math and watch what your oppenents do.

You might not win everytime, but when you follow some simple strategy you will always have an advantage over those players who don’t.

That’s How We Roll…Celebrity Poker Ever wonder how the bad boys of Hollywood kill time in between shooting blockbuster movies and attending the latest tinseltown premiere? Playing to win at the casinos, natch. Take Academy Award winner Matt Damon, for instance (and ladies, who wouldn’t?). Before he was cashing in on his role as a master assassin in the Bourne Identity series, Matt played a master poker player in Rounders back in 1998. During the filming of the movie, which also featured Edward Norton, these amigos were coached by world class poker player Johnny Chan in Atlantic City for three months. Chan, known as “The Orient Express,” was inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame in 2002 and won his 10th World Series of Poker Tournament in 2005 playing Texas Hold ‘Em.

During an interview with AskMen.com, Chan was said to be the “Master of the Tell” and asked to describe a tell that most people don’t recognize. Chan explained that “betting motion is very important. Some players, when they have good hands, they bet very slow, counting their chips, taking their time. When they’re bluffing, they just shove it in real quick. Those are the things to think about in a poker game.”
