World Series of Poker

57 gold bracelets are up for grabs, as the 41st annual World Series of Poker (WSOP) tournament in Las Vegas gets ready to crown a new international poker champion. This year’s WSOP, held in the Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino, will join poker players worldwide to compete for the holy grail of poker: the WSOP bracelet.
Events will take place within 51 days between May 27th and July 17th. The no frills poker events will all look forward to the final $10,000 no-limit Texas hold ‘em Main Event between November 6th November 9th. With nine final players, the “Nine in November” table is likely to hold several familiar faces such as xyz.
Apart from the headlining names is the addition of several new tournaments that are catching the eye of many. One of the more anticipated past events, the $50,000 Players Championships, has been replaced by the $50,000 H.O.R.S.E. tournament. This new event will hold the same $50,000 buy-in and will add no-limit hold ‘em, pot-limit Omaha, and limit 2–7 triple draw to the five H.O.R.S.E. games. It will wrap up with a no-limit hold’em final table, and as in the Players Championship the famed Chip Reese Memorial Trophy will be awarded to the victor.
Complementing this top tier event will be a $25,000 six-handed no-limit Texas  hold ‘em four day tournament which will take place in the final leg of the WSOP; it is promised to draw many well know players. The 2009 $40,000 no-limit hold ‘em tournament has been removed from the 2010 schedule, as a result the largest full-table no-limit hold ‘em event will take place this year.
All bracelet events are now open for play. Hurry up before the designated seats are sold or before the third level of play begins (roughly two hours after start time). Visit online through www.wsop.com. There is more than five months to go so register to the  World Series of Poker today.

Video poker online

Video poker recently turned 118 years since it is one of the most popular games in worldwide history. It is also incredible the development that he knows since its apparition in the early 1891 in Brooklyn.
It was first played on slot machines. Those days` gamblers used to play it with packages that contained 50 cards instead of 52, like we play nowadays. Also, past winnings were visibly smaller. Taking into consideration that fact that this type of poker was played mostly in bars and pubs, that represented those days’ casinos, gamblers` winnings where measured in alcohol. Today this isn’t practiced anymore, so if you win, you are paid in real money. Also, if you will take into account the fact that your jackpot is continually rising while you play video poker, you will be amazed how your financial situation could be radically changed by your total earnings.

ChiliPoker Review
ChiliPoker is another member of iPoker Network.  The new player bonus is up to $600 for a deposit.  The membership in iPoker is a doorway to great promotions and special tournaments.  The traffic of this Network helps all members pick up players they need to grow.  ChiliPoker offers many variations of poker including Holdem and Omaha.  There are many high value tournaments, satellites and freerolls for the growing number of players.  The poker players are rated rather loose and that is another reason to try the site.  The latest player count shows 10,000 for cash games and 55,000 for tournaments.  No USA

PartyGammon Review
This site is affiliated with Party Poker and went live in 2006.  The poker room is really PartyPoker, which started in 2001 on the Net.  This is one of the largest poker sites on the Internet now.  With the huge following the PartyPoker has this site is very likely to be busy for the Backgammon lovers.  The poker players on PartyPoker number well over 10,000 for their cash games and five times as many for their tournaments.  This is a nice break for poker players who like to go back in history and play one of the oldest games in the history of man.

Action Poker Review
The new player bonus is a healthy $1000 on a match of 120%.  This gives the player some extra cash to play with.  The site offers exotic variations of poker like Pan and the standard fare of Holdem and Omaha.  The limits are at the low end of the scale and serious money poker players will not be excited by the low limit games.  Since this is a relatively new site, there is hope that the traffic will pick up and the setting of some other poker variations many draw from a different crowd of players.  The player count is a weak 150 for cash games and 500 for tournaments.  No USA
