Beginner Level
In this weekly beginner poker club, I will not only teach you the basic rules of the card game Poker such as the best hands to play, and how to play the cards that you are dealt with effectively but most importantly what hands to fold. You will be taught the basic lingo so that you are able to communicate with the dealer and your opponents and learn basic poker etiquette in the process. You will also be taught different styles of play and in what situations they should be used. As well as learning to play you will be taught basic cards shuffles used in casinos to let you deal like a professional. We will also be discussing how the same rules and tactics of Poker can be applied to real life situations like starting and running a business. My role in this ongoing class is to act as a teacher, dealer and mentor. I will also be available to help students personally with any technical issues they may encounter.
