Having mentioned Steve, it is now the turn of Jim - both people I used to work with over at EDS in Britain. Jim enjoyed playing backgammon a lot, and used to play for fun (rather than profit) at an online game playing site. If had known about online backgammon over at Backgammon Masters, he may have been tempted to try it out there instead.
Had he done so, he would have been able to meet Jean Claude, the host and lifestyle guru permanently in residence over at the all in one game lobby. J-C is not just there to help you out with the poker games also available at the site, he is also very happy to give tips to further the enjoyment of your whole life style.
If you hurry, you will find you can play poker over at the lobby with no rake - that is to say the ‘house’ takes no commission at all, all your winnings are just that - yours. But this special offer, put in place to celebrate the initiation of poker for real money at the site, is time limited, so if you want to try your luck out, sooner rather than later would be the best idea.

If you are an experienced professional when it comes to poker, you can even play at 3 tables simultaneously, assuming your attention can hold for that long Should you wish to hone your skills, before playing for real money, you will find the free versions of each variety of poker on offer.
