| Is there any good way to practice playing poker at home by yourself? In particular Texas Hold'em, 7-card stud, 5-card draw. What I've been doing is dealing out hands and seeing which ones I'd play and kind of what I'd do with those hands depending on what position I'm in. Any help? Thanx | ||

| The software program Turbo Texas Hold 'Em is fairly decent for practice. It has the ability to program your opponents according to how loose or tight you'd want to play against, as well as "coaching advice" on pot odds etc. Has several other features, too. -Maude | ||

| The best site I've found is pokerpages.com, go there and join the pokerschool online. Poker School is $14.95 a month or $149.50 per year. The competion is intense, because of the incentives including the chance to win sponsorship money into real live tournies at B&M casinos anywhere in the world. The people are friendly and helpful, and so are the forums. If you join, look for me I'm thepokerchef. Noel "Catch ya on the flopside" | ||

| If you want to learn a more advance method of playing poker and learning how the game moves around the table. Keep doing what you have been doing and take notes on every hand (low hand, high hand, hands that you would play that lose, every card where it goes) stuff like that. Trust me you will see a pattern build within your notes. You can also take everyone's else advise and play online. but when you play try to find a site where you have a "notes" section, and play the exact same game every time you play and you will learn how people play and you can watch the card move around the table much more. | ||

| I often will take out a deck of cards and pick a hand that I have been having trouble with (say KJ or QQ) and start flopping it for 4 or five decks in a row deciding what is the best thing to do on the flop turn and river from EP, MP, and LP and against 1, 3, and 5 callers. It may sound kind of silly, but visualizing this has helped me to play marginal hands better. | ||
