Introducing a Poker Step Back


Greetings, My name is Brett Bumeter and I am a new writer here at The Poker Blog. I have been playing cards and poker for much of my life. I also cover several other topics as a writer from Finance, International Tax, Web Marketing, MindMapping, and Comedy.
Over the course of the next weeks and months I will start by walking through the fundamentals of the poker games that I enjoy the most, starting with Texas Hold’em. For some readers of this blog, this will be a review in fundamentals, for which many of the higher level articles written here will be of more interest.
For our rapidly growing readership many of these fundamentals will help new players grow and develop. This is good for all players as the growth of the poker playing community helps all of us grow and enjoy a much more satisfying game of play.
Initially, I will cover many of the basic terms in Texas Hold ‘em
Here are some of the terms that I will be covering not only from a definition, but also with examples and extra discussion about how they can be used in the play of the game:

  • Betting Structures
  • Blinds and Antes
  • Burn Cards
  • Turn Cards
  • The Flop
  • The River
  • Showdowns
  • Split Pots
  • The Five Card Hand
  • Kickers

Along the way if you encounter any terms that you would like us to cover or even research, please drop us a comment and we will tackle it as best we can, quickly and efficiently.
