Best platform to practice poker

[carlisle1]

Have you tried youtube? I have not also much knowledge of poker. But I have tried to learn through youtube for a few days. Now I have some basic ideas about poker.  But not much. You can also try to get some help from youtube. Maybe you can get some basic ideas about it. But I don't sure about pro strategy.

Watching youtube videos can be good start to learn the basic rules of poker but praticing more and more is the best thing to improve skills.

Just like the old thing that "Practice made perfect" but of course nothing is perfect specially in gambling unless you are cheater.

@OP, if you are trying to see free platform to practice poker then you'll find it easily on playstore if you are android users. You can practice it by joining freeroll poker, most poker sites offers freeroll for their players.

recently i come across a thread that gives site in which there is a free trial of betting but i can't find it now maybe later i will find it in my History.

By this poker freeroll you can get two benefits, first is that you can practice poker with no risk of losing money and second benefit is that you have a chance to win something.

mostly gambling sites offers free roll but i cannot remember that there are some other that win actually but maybe i am wrong.

Following is the order of the best cards:

• 1. Royal Flush
• 2. Straight Flush
• 3. Four of a Kind
• 4. Full House
• 5. Flush
• 6. Straight
• 7. Three of a Kind
• 8. Two Pair
• 9. One Pair
• 10. High Card

I am also new in playing poker. Can I ask if it is required to follow the respective order of the cards as shown in the picture above?

@RapTarX

I think you can avoid spending your hard earned money if you just wanted to practice your learnings in poker. I am fortunate to have a group of people who are into gambling and they recommended me to download an application in playstore wherein you can play poker without risking your money. They are using virtual money wherein you can exchange your won money for something.

@RapTarX Poker is not a simple card game as many think it to be. Video tutorials can give you some good idea on how to play but practising with free platforms gives you literally nothing. As figmentofmyass has mentioned nobody plays real poker in free platforms, most of them play like lunatics as they have nothing to lose. If you want to improve your game, you'll have to play with real money. Only when real money is involved players naturally tend to play the game seriously and cautiously. So it's better to join micro stake tables and develop your game.

I just want to add one more thing, in poker, you don't have to play every hand. You can always fold your cards and watch others and read how they bet. But that doesn't mean that you should always fold and keep watching ;p

Following is the order of the best cards:

• 1. Royal Flush
• 2. Straight Flush
• 3. Four of a Kind
• 4. Full House
• 5. Flush
• 6. Straight
• 7. Three of a Kind
• 8. Two Pair
• 9. One Pair
• 10. High Card

I am also new in playing poker. Can I ask if it is required to follow the respective order of the cards as shown in the picture above?

Yes, this is the order of the best cards by which a winner is selected. For example, if you have three of a kind and your opponent has straight or anything higher the order, he'll be declared the winner. But if he has two pair or anything lower, you'll be declared as winner.

I recommend not only watching videos but play the actual game for you to get comfortable with the game.
If you noticed, someone just posted the sets of cards in a poker table, that's what you need to take an important note.
I remember playing poker online using in game currency 8 years ago, and It was a fun experience. That's where I learned how to play poker.
Just play the game with a minimal bet, you'll learn better that way than just watching videos.

Yes, that's the order of the cards with a high win rate, if when playing get cards like the number one order you have to bet all the money you have and you will definitely win the game.
Even if your opponent has the same card as yours, then you will share the victory with him, in theory.

In practice, a player is required to have the courage and confidence to bet, because in the first round participants are only given two cards by the bookie.  That is where your level of courage must be done between wanting to continue betting or not when you get two good cards or two bad cards.

I have been playing poker for the last couple of days, have lost a few mBTC within these days. I'm not an expert pokee player, I would like to practice it more. Is there any free way to do that? Any free platform you share would be a great benefit to me.

I'm installing offline poker apps to play this game in my phone. Of course this game not for betting. But since you are need more practice, i think you can try to download it. You can get free chips everyday so you can play without any problem to learn.

[jademaxsuy]

Well it seems that the platform I found where you can practice for free has been suggested here already which is the Zynga Texas Hold'em poker. I'm sure many facebook user will find this poker game on facebook since they will display the game on the upper right side of the screen that is why I know about it and also it's online too.

Same boat.
I am not good with online poker but I am good at it in a real poker room. 
There is a lot of difference. You cannot bring the greedy type of yours into online pokers.
There is no bluffing, they could just deal with everything you throw at them.

I actually practiced using the facebook application. I think it is called Texas Holdem from Zynga. It's free  and I could just get some free tokens from sent gifts.
Tried playing it like it was my money and forgot about being greedy for the mean time. It was a success.
But still that was just a game for practice.

Head on to SWC poker. They have free tournament every half hour and the tables are filled with real people. You'll have plenty of time to learn different types of poker games. Though they don't have and teaching material, the wining hand is clearly displayed in the notification to analyze.

Have you tried youtube?

He has point when you want to practice poker, but things will not progress when you are just watching videos and learning the concept about it, you need first hand experience, there are apps in phones that you can play poker although you are playing with bots it is still a good practice because you are playing against an AI and that will hard because they are not thinking like a real human poker player, if you want to up the ante then you can assemble some of you friends who can play poker and play with them, there will be bets though but I don't all of friends want to play poker for money but when they do it is just a small stakes where 100$ is too much, remember that gather friends that play poker and can put up a fight in real games because it will really help. I think that being knowledgeable and experienced should go hand in hand when it comes to improving your skill.

We are now in information age and for sure that there are many websites around the internet that can help us to increase our knowledge about poker especially if we want to be on the advanced level. I also watched videos in the internet especially in youtube and facebook like the others. I also practice using the application that I downloaded through my phone. It really takes time to master the game but we should focus on gaining experience in order for us to become knowledgeable to it.

what app was that bro maybe you can share or link it here so that other people that are practicing can try it too . i
remeber i learn the game offline (reality ) before i use online apps  . technology right now are helpful to practice our existing skill especially if we dont have access to cards or on the actual game anymore . if we are first timer , i think its hard to just learn without experiencing the game in real world imo

If you only want to learn about Poker, and you don't want to use real money, you can try to use Texas HoldEm Poker on Facebook. You can play that game while you connect to your Facebook account, and you don't have to worry with depositing the money to play Poker. I think that can entertain you while you can learn Poker from that site. You can watch the lesson on Youtube.

   I played poker at FaceBook, until they close my account! It was nice to play there for free, tons of chips
can be collected and played with them, learning about poker. After that I am trying to search for freeroll
tournaments, and I mostly play them. Only one things bothers me, sometimes this freeroll tournaments
can last for hours, I don't enter late game every time, but several times I had to stand up and leave my
computer and game because obligations. But I have some fun playing and trying to learn something, poker
is a good game!

You can download it at the playstore/appstore too! I usually practice there but the intensity or the pressure of the real game with money involves is nothing. I highly suggest to play with a little amount of money so you can get the vibe and the excitement of a real game, playing with 10$ will really teach you how the opponent move and you can get a lot of knowledge there.

You can try to download Texas Zynga Poker, it is an android/apple application that you can play on your mobile phone anytime you want. It is free and you can actually practice playing including your strategy and you might discover how to deal with other players since this is online that you can literally play with a real person.

I remember this. I downloaded this to my phone too.

You know its a lot entertaining and you will learn faster when you play the poker itself, you will learn the order of cards along the way. Heck I didn't learn that until I played it in real life with the boys in the neighborhood. They are the worse to play because they are the worse cheaters.

[MCobian]

To be honest, I don't like to play poker, but I've learned it. Usually I am very comfortable learning from the YouTube platform,
it's not only free to learn poker from YouTube, but it's easier to understand. Sometimes I learn poker games from several websites.
Like mypokercoaching, pokernews, pokerstars and many more. With an internet connection it's easy to learn about poker.
On the websites I mentioned you can learn poker strategies, tactics, tips and get advice.

What happens to your account? Did you do something that breaks their rule? Because I think, as long as you didn't do something that violates their rules, your account will be fine. Because of Poker HoldEm connecting to Facebook, if you break the Facebook rules, then yes, they can close your account, all account that connected with Facebook.

You can also play for another game inside Facebook, but you should remember that you should stop playing the game after you play for a long time.

You can download it at the playstore/appstore too! I usually practice there but the intensity or the pressure of the real game with money involves is nothing. I highly suggest to play with a little amount of money so you can get the vibe and the excitement of a real game, playing with 10$ will really teach you how the opponent move and you can get a lot of knowledge there. 

If that game is for my mobile phone, then I will think twice to download and install it because I run out of the memory of my mobile phone. I think it is good if you can learn how to play the games from those apps, but maybe you don't feel the pressure if you don't use the money. Yes, I always use little money when it comes to gambling games because I don't want to see the money that I have will loss in just a short time.

Agree.
No sweaty palms if you are just playing with chips that you didn't really bought.
Also, players there are just greedy because they are not even frightened to lose anything.

I played some online before but I didn't really win the top ranks but there is still gifts for lower ranks.
Forgot the name of the platform though.

For OP: If I were you, I would start with just low stakes. Somehow you will still feel the fear of losing.
Go for tournaments for cheaper entry fees.
