Default OT: Why is poker getting so much attention and not chess?

I suggest
downloading the commercial version of UofAlberta's Poki
(http://www.poker-academy.com/), and giving it a go yourself.


Is it the "Poker Academy Pro" Trial you are suggesting? Or the paid
version?

Can someone suggest a site for me to play for free or with "play money"?

I have not played in over 20 years, in fact we would do "Tuesday Night with
the Boys" nothing serious at all. However, I'd like to explore a good, safe,
free poker site. Any suggestions? TIA.

I play at www.fulltiltpoker.com

I practiced a lot in the "play money" section first. When I finally
played with real money, I only entered the $4.00 entry fee tournaments
initially. In these tourneys, there will be at least 500 players so the
prize pool is $2,000.00, which is not bad for an entry fee of $4.00. I
was in the money in a lot of these small tourneys.

Try it and have fun!
