It's been said that over 70 million Americans know the basic rules of poker. There can be no question; poker is simply the most popular card game in America. Part of this is due to the fact that poker is such an adaptable game, played at kitchen tables with friends as easily as at the local casino competitively.
The World Series of Poker is one of the most prestigious poker tournaments in the world. First played in 1970, the World Series of Poker has grown in popularity ever since. In 2004, the final Championship WSOP event, no limit Texas Hold'em, had 2,576 entries and a record setting first place prize of $5 million.
The 2005 World Series of Poker will be the 36th annual World Series of Poker tournament. Over 6,000 poker players are expected to participate in the WSOP Championship tournament (for a complete WSOP schedule, see World Series Poker Schedule). The total prize pool for the WSOP Championship will likely exceed $60 million, with an estimated first place prize over $8 million.
Now lets have a bit of fun with some poker jokes and then let�s don�t waist our time and get down to bussiness and learn some real facts about poker.
# A blonde was in Vegas vacationing with friends. She was standing in front of the candy machine and put two coins in, turned the knob and a candy bar fell out. She picked up the candy bar and put it in her pocket, then she proceeded to put two more coins into the slot and turned the knob, again a candy bar fell out and she put it in her pocket. She put two more coins into the machine and again turned the knob producing yet another candy bar. A man was watching from a short distance away and walked up to her, he said "Excuse me Miss? What are you doing?"
She said, "Duh! I'm winning here!"
# A man walked by a table in a hotel and noticed three men and a dog playing cards. The dog was playing with extraordinary performance.
"This is a very smart dog.", the man commented.
"Not so smart," said one of the players. "every time he gets a good hand he wags his tail."
# Way back in 1863, in a place called Dodge City, there was a Friday Night Poker Game. Taco Bill always had one....behind his restaurant. The sheriff never did find out about it.
Well, one Friday night, the usual players were on hand. There was Sweet Jim, One Keg Larry, Smokin' Jack, Sour Sam and One-Eyed Ed. And of course, Taco Bill.
That night, the stakes got really high and everyone was getting pretty drunk. Round about midnight, someone caught Sweet Jim cheatin'. As expected, a gunfight broke out. Jim took 3 bullets to the heart. Unfortunately, Sour Sam got caught in the cross-fire and he too, took 3 bullets to the heart.
The other players became really worried....not because of the dead players but rather, they didn't want the sheriff finding out about their Friday night card game. Taco Bill spoke up and told them not to worry. Next day, on his menu was a Special......"All you can eat Sweet and Sour Meatballs ....10?".
