Poker in the UK is still on a high and shows no signs of stopping. As more and more people are introduced to the game the number of players both online and visiting UK casino's continues to grow.
The change in Gambling Laws in this Country have also started to introduce players at pub level playing for a £5 entry.
In my opinion this will endeavor to get more players who will eventually raise their game enough to go to the next level.
Pub poker as a whole is probably a bad idea in my opinion, when played it should be held by responsible persons in a controlled environment. Excessive drinking and gambling DO NOT mix.
The best place to practice the game is online from the comfort of your own home.
Not only can you play for free you can qualify for major live tournaments at a drastically reduced rate.
