Play Free Poker For Fun

Play Free Poker For Fun at any of the major poker sites and you will get a good grounding in how the poker tables work - before you risk any of your money.

All of the big online poker sites like Party Poker, Poker Room and Absolute Poker have free poker games that you can play to learn the ropes. Just download the free software (often referred to as the "client") and you can start playing for free right away. You will soon get a feel for the table and how it works and if you've never played poker online before you MUST start at the free poker games.

It should be remembered that although poker is now a multi-billion dollar industry, it is still a game and if you play free poker for fun you should always enjoy the experience. There's no pressure of losing money to worry about so you can just concentrate on enjoying the game - and learning.

Whatever you do though, don't get carried away if you get a bit of success on the free tables. This does not mean that you can repeat this at the real money games as the standard is much higher there, even on the bottom value tables. The people on the free money tables are mostly like you, just learning the game.

Even experienced online poker players can take something from the free games. Texas Holdem poker is by far the most popular game both in online and home poker games and a lot of players have never played anything else but Hold 'em. So why not go to a free table and play a bit of Omaha or 7 card stud for a change instead? You can learn how to play these interesting variations for free and without any risk.

Who knows, you might even end up preferring them to Texas Holdem!
