/24-7PressRelease/ - BEVERLY HILLS, CA, December 09, 2005 - Know what a Bad Beat is? What about Tilt? What about Broadway, Cowboys or the Nuts? If you wouldn't know better you would think you have gone nuts but these are infact all poker terms.
Poker is a game with a language as rich as the game itself. Everything has a nickname or moniker and if you are not in on it and don't know what people are saying you will think they are talking double dutch.
In fact a recent survey revealed that as many as 89% of new poker players are turned away because they can't understand the lingo.
This is where Pacific Poker (http://www.pacificpoker-online.com) steps in. Known for being the online poker room that looks after its players especially its new ones, Pacific Poker (http://www.pacificpoker-online.com) has once again gone the extra yard to extend the welcome mat for its rookies.
The Pacific Poker terminology page (http://www.pacificpoker.com/en/terminology--2,5.htm)
is especially useful for new players.
Mike Herea, promotions department manager for Pacific Poker (http://www.pacificpoker-online.com) agrees. "Poker can be taxing enough for a new player at the best of times without having to worry about what everyone is saying. You feel stupid after a while continually asking 'what does this mean?' so with the terminology page they now don't have to."
Every term in Poker from Aces full to Walking Sticks is included and players will become experts in no time.
Some of the terms are a bit cryptic but other ones such as Turn, River and Button are integral to the game.
"Communicating is a big part of poker and with the page, new players become part of the game."
