Welcome to PokerRoomSchool!
This is PokerRoomSchool, the best place on the net to learn how to become a winning poker player!
If you’re new to poker, or whether you’ve been playing for a while and just want to raise your game, you’re in the right place. We’re going to teach you how to become a good, solid, creative poker player — one who has a decided advantage in know-how, strategy, tactics and all the skills that go into the making of a winning poker.
And to get you started on your poker journey, we are going to give you $150 absolutely free to get your poker career up and running. We want you to play with our money as we know that by following our approach, we will turn you into a winning player!
We will help you get your feet wet in poker games against real, live opponents, and if you have the right stuff, you’ll be able to take our initial seed money and turn it into a substantial playing stake. Our lessons and live coaching will prove an invaluable source of poker knowledge.
And you can work at your own pace. You’ll start in our Entry Level and then work your way up to the higher levels of study, all the way to our Pro Level.
You’ll be growing as a player while you do this, reinforcing the lessons learned in PokerRoomSchool with the realities encountered at the poker table, and having fun in the process. Best of all, you can do it all on our money.
If you’ve watched poker on television, you’ve probably seen no-limit tournament Texas hold’em. That’s what the majority of shows feature, but it’s not the place to start.
We feel strongly that you learn the principles of Texas hold’em in fixed limit games.
Fixed limit is not as fraught with danger as no-limit wagering. When all of the chips stacked in front of you are potentially at risk on every betting round of every hand you play, one misstep can cost you all of the chips you may have won that session and all of the money you bought into the game with.
Needless to say, it can be a minefield. In fixed-limit betting the amount that can be wagered is fixed and the last two wagering rounds in Texas hold’em are usually double the amount that can be wagered on each of the first two betting rounds.
In a $0.02-$0.04 fixed limit game, wagering is in increments of 2c on the first two rounds and in increments of 4c on each of the last two. So regardless of how badly you may stub your toe on any one hand — as if you’re just learning you’ll probably make lots of mistakes; it’s how we learn — you’ll never lose more on that hand than the sum of the betting limits.
In other words, if you play badly on any one hand in a fixed-limit game, it can cost you some chips. If you make the same mistake in no-limit, you can go broke on one hand.
So, once again, welcome to PokerRoomSchool and good luck at the tables!
