Title:	Which Poker Games Are Most Suited To Beginners?
Article:	With the substantial media coverage that many poker variations receive, from world wide television broadcasts to magazines that are produced on a regular basis and distributed nationally, their popularity has grown considerably over the past one hundred years and is now at a level where the majority of people will have played or know someone who has played a variation of poker. Due to the popularity of poker games, more and more people are becoming interested in playing a variation of some type. However, due to the copious amount of variations that are possible to play, it can be difficult trying to find a game which is suitable for a beginner player, as they can all appear, in one way or another, very difficult to understand and play competently. Texas Hold Em is a prime example. The most popular of all poker games, Texas Hold Em receives the most coverage in all aspects and is played by millions of people on a regular basis around the world, both in online and offline casinos. As this poker variation is so popular, many people believe that it should not be played by beginner poker players as due to the fact that there is such vast amount of players, it can make the game very difficult to succeed in. Conversely, there is just as strong of an argument for why this variation is ideal for beginners, in the way that as it is so popular, there is a substantial amount of information resources available for free, meaning that beginner players can fully understand the rules in an in-depth manner prior to even playing a single hand. Of course, Texas Hold Em is only one of many different poker games that are suitable for beginner players and other variations that are not as popular are seen as being just as suitable. Five card stud or five card draw, for example, are both games that were once massively popular in their own right but saw a decline in popularity when people were wanting more challenging games. Still played regularly in home games and many poker halls around the world, both of these five card poker games have rules that are easy to understand and remember, making them ideal for players who are completely new to the world of poker. Once a game has been chosen to play, the problem that most beginner players encounter is remembering the general rules, such as the ranking value of the hands that are available. With ten hands to utilize (from the highest scoring Royal Flush to the lowest scoring high card), some are easy to understand (such as one pair or three of a kind), but others (a flush, for instance) are not so straightforward and can cause confusion if they are not memorised properly. Poker is a fantastic game for any one to play and with dozens of mainstream variations to choose from (which is not including the considerable amount of regional variations), there is a suitable poker game for everyone.
