October 20th, 2012

His palms are sweaty and heart racing, but he smiles when he sees his cards.
“You can not lose,” he said with a big smile on his face.
Poker in cyberspace is perfect for all of you to forgive a muscle.
Johan Eriksson shows me his hand. A full house, jacks full of ladies. There are 260 in the pot. Jack comes from Ohio, joined his hands, but Hans of Norway and Australia, both named Johan Steven put $ 20.
He shows me his hand again. “You can not lose,” said a second time by clicking with the mouse and Johan is $ 320 richer. He was right, he could not lose this.
We are not in Denmark, Las Vegas or Atlantic City, but in a small one bedroom apartment in Copenhagen.
The battle will take place over the Internet, cyberspace, where Johan is illuminating the computer screen.
The online poker room PokerStars is called, is the server in Costa Rica, somewhere, and players are all over the world.
In online poker in the nineties began, he created mixed feelings among the players of casino poker in real time.
Some thought that the games of actual damages casinos poker regular customers trying not to play poker online.
Others were fascinated that they stay home and play poker (in underwear) against real people from around the world.
Poker online is from heaven to those who have felt uncomfortable in a poker room or casino difficult to find a poker room posted near their homes.
“Beware,” said Johan, in the midst of a new hand. “Internet poker is two times faster than live poker, so the money comes and goes so fast.”
“Shit, he caught an ace on the river,” cries John. “Lost $ 30 on this page. Well, well, Easy Come, Easy Go”
Johan started playing poker in high school, but unlike most of us do not stop playing this great game.
He has been dreaming of since high school days playing the “big boys”, and then bought a plane ticket to Las Vegas at the tender age of 21. In Las Vegas, he discovered the poker game Texas Hold’em.
He introduced the game to his poker buddies in Denmark, and the game of Five Card Draw was dead and buried forever.
Johan has just returned from his seventh trip to Sin City. “It’s the same routine every time,” he said. Just at the Mirage Hotel, dump our bags and headed straight to the poker room.
Never played at the casino. Play poker only true, and spends most of his time playing in a tournament on vacation. For him, this is the best time of one man should have.
Its aim is that every time they earn the equivalent costs of lodging and hotel Flight. He managed to make the final four times, but that has not won a tournament yet.
