Professional and amateur poker players alike all enjoy a great game of poker. It is what keeps them coming back to the poker table, whether the table is a computer screen or the real green. It is the thrill of the game.



The game is a combination of luck, skill and sheer determination as money and power switches hands between the competing players. It is no wonder why so many players turn to poker tournaments to advance their seat and their winning purse. It is the thrill of competing and the hope of the winning that drives them on.









Poker tournaments are not hard to find. Even if you live far from the nearest casino there are still pots just waiting for your final hand of cards that beats out the crowd to win the big purse.



Online play has greatly increased in the last few years as more people are turning to the internet for games. You can find just about any card game online but if you still want to sit down at the green, then there is a tournament you need to check out.



For those people who want to get into a tournament and have the necessary skills to advance or at least hold their own, there are some big games to be found. The World Series of Poker is always a huge draw to those aspiring poker players who want to find their way to a multi-million dollar jackpot at the final no limit hand.



If you do not have the skill set you need at this time to play with the big guns of this game, then you can always take lessons from some of the greatest players in the game. One website that offers players some valuable tips, hints and lessons is "777". You can take twenty-seven lessons from Toucan Tony. Sure the name sounds corny but the lessons can help you improve your card game skills and put you into the game for big money.



Hopefully, before long you will be able to sit in at poker tournaments and be able to hold your own. You may not be ready for The World Series of Poker but you will be able to compete in smaller games, with thousand dollar purses by playing online. You will have fun while trying to learn the in's and out's of playing cards against some of the top players in the world.
