Team Poker - A Fun New Way to Play Poker Online
Recently a new innovation had been launched in the online poker
world. Now you and your friends can form "Poker Teams" and
compete against other teams online .
Each poker team consists of between five to ten players. A Team
Manager heads up the squad and assigns different team players to
play in different events.
Your team can choose to play in Poker Leagues and Poker
Eliminator events.
I think the addition of team poker to the online poker
experience is a great one. One of the things that I've often
complained about when playing my online poker is that there is
often a lack of community at the tables. Until now, it has all
been so anonymous.
Team poker is changing all of that. Now your online poker games
can be shared with folks you know and have similar expiences.
You could form a team your classmates, co-workers, softball
team, or just with old friends.
And because the games are online, geography is no boundry. Maybe
a poker team is just the thing to reunite with your long lost
college friends or hometown buddies.
Your team could be formed with new poker playing friends that
share a common interest. Maybe you are crazy about the New York
Yankees or the Indianapolis Colts. Why not start a poker team
that recruits poker players with your same passion?
And why stop at forming sports related teams? I can just see a
great rivalry developing between the "Young Republicans" versus
the "Old Democrats". The possibilities for your team are only
limited by your imagination (Middle-Aged Libertarians, anyone ?).
Team poker is a welcome innovation for the online poker players
that like to play competitive poker- but also enjoy playing a
social game with friends.
