Card Player Magazine Advocates Online Poker Play

With the proliferation of online poker play it pays to stop and consider whether or not it is having a positive or negative affect on the world or poker in general. Putting aside for the moment the argument centered on the moral rightness of gambling, there are other aspects of the subject to be considered, such as value and education, not to mention entertainment. According to Justin Marchand, the managing editor of international poker magazine Card Player, there are plenty of benefits to online poker. Online poker gives people the opportunity to play for free, including tournament games. While many poker players will argue that free play gives no value in strategy when it comes to money play, new players can learn the rules of the game and tournament structure before venturing into real money games.
