WSOP Europe 2008

The WSOP doesn't always mean Vegas. With the launch of its European counterpart, the World Series of Poker Europe, London will have the prestige of hosting the first ever WSOP Europe.

The event is arranged at the London Clubs International casinos in London.

Here's what could be yours:

Low Limit Hold Em Poker

LOW LIMIT HOLD EM POKER

In low limit Hold'em poker, play only high cards that have another way of winning besides just pairing up.

Like King Ten, unsuited, because you can make a straight or big pair. if they are suited you have a better chance with a flush as well. If you have Ace Ace and three of a suit come up on the flop if you don't have the ace of that suit and bet and get raised, then fold if you have the Ace; then just call because you can make the top flush.

How to Play 5 Card Stud Poker

The classic poker game, 5 Card Stud Poker is one of the oldest poker card games.

Captain Cooks Poker gives you active 5 Card Stud Poker rooms so you'll never have to wait. Visit the site to download the poker room software.
Players are dealt one card face down (the hole card) and one card face up (the up or door card).
Players then have a betting round before the dealer gives out a new up card.

Once players have 5 cards there is a final round of betting, and the Player with the highest hand wins the pot.
5 Card Stud was invented way back in the 1850s, but it is still enjoyed by a large number of players. 5 Card Stud is relatively simple in comparison with some of the other poker derivatives, which is attractive to players new to poker. 5 Card Stud is an excellent introduction to the world of 7 card stud.
