A couple of online casino tips for us to note

Many of you will have read reports last week of a poker game in Monaco which broke all records for the size of the stakes involved. Whilst this sort of game is well outside the realms of almost all the amateur gamblers who play casino games at an online casino, we should not ignore two important lessons which this game should teach us. Here at onlinecasino.ie we regularly attempt to provide a few online casino tips for new and experienced casino games players and this high stakes game does have important lessons for us all. Firstly, the biggest loser appears to have been a very wealthy Russian businessman who in spite of being a very experienced poker player apparently lost over a million dollars in one night. There seems little doubt that he will not starve as a result of this enormous loss, which according to reports constitutes less than 1% of his wealth, but he did fall victim to ignoring a piece of advice we should all remember. After losing his initial buy-in of $300,000, he chased his losses and staked more than twice as much again to stay in the game most of which he also lost. It doesn’t matter whether you’re playing online casino games for a few euros or playing for thousands of dollars, there are days when your luck is out and we all have to accept that and come back another day. The second lesson the reports of this game should remind us is that playing poker at an online casino poker forum against other gamblers who you do not know can be fraught with danger. Apparently one of the professional poker players involved in the game took advantage of a break in proceedings to go online for an hour or so, during which he managed to win over $100,000 at an online casino. One wonders whether the other poker players on that online casino website were aware that they were playing against a professional who could afford to buy-in to such a high stakes game. We can all read about poker games such as this which appear to have come straight out of a James Bond movie, and even dream of being involved, but we should also note the lessons which lie beneath the romance.
