Playing poker online
Playing poker is a hobby – and sometimes a profession – which has become increasingly popular in the last decade or so.
The proliferation of sites offering poker is testimony to this. Twenty years ago, no one had heard of anyone who was a professional poker player on the internet. Now, many of us actually know people who earn good money on online poker personally.
The reason? Online poker rooms have many advantages compared to the land-based casinos that usually offer the game. The most important reason is how easy it is to start. You can register with Betsson’s poker room right this minute and pick up playing if you wish. You will immediately have other players to practice with, you can play against other beginners and you can play as much and as often as you like.

You can play online poker wherever you are, as long as you have access to a computer with internet or even a mobile phone with internet access.
