Learning About Poker Online

I've played poker for many years now, but I've only played texas holdem for five or six years.  I've never been really serious about it, but I still seem to be addicted.  I have read many books and webpages and still haven't become the expert that I would like to be.  As they say it's all about the journey and not the destination.

Anyway if you are new to the world of poker online or off I can help you get started.  I can recommend books and websites useful to the beginning or intermediate player. 


Be sure to check out the free poker money link in the Poker Resources section.
