Navigating the poker atlas in Kenya

While Poker hasn’t caught on in Africa the same way it has globally, the game has a very large fanbase in Kenya; particularly for online poker.

Poker: the peoples game

pokerHistorically, poker was seen as a very difficult game played by people who have mastered the game and placing huge wagers on the turn of a card. This precedence created a notion about poker that pushed people off from learning how to play the game.?However,?in recent times, poker has become a popular game around the world with more people accepting and learning the game.???

Over the years, several events have changed the perception of poker, events like the annual World Series of Poker have begun to push up people’s?interest in the game as it is now televised. The global growth of poker games online has also pushed its popularity, most sites now offer options of free practice and the rules are the same online as they are offline, aiding continuous boost in skills in private.?

This has been very progressive growth for the game of poker for players aspiring to engage in?“live games”?in casinos and poker rooms.???
