Watching the world series of poker one wonders how you might do yourself playing against the best poker players in the world. Whilst this is unlikely for most of us, we can get a taste of the fun and excitement thanks to Activision game for the Playstation Portable.
The game is very easy to play. You are mentored in the world poker tour by Chris Ferguson who gives you advice on how to approach the game and particular individuals styles and talents. Going "ALL IN" will back off a lot of computer opponents, but some of the pros will take you on, on a frightening regular basis which if you don't have the best hand you will lose your stack very quickly. I find the best way to play is to play tight at first until you have a good chip lead and then use that lead to dominate the other players - going all in on a regular basis with a good hand. The computer players are a lot more hesitant to call you if they know they are going to go out with a lost. If you want to win some tourneys, your either going have to play very well or save often.
The game has lots of information available - statistics like pot odds, outs, hand odds give you an added edge when making tough decisions.
World poker series has increased the popularity of poker to super star levels. The huge wins - in the millions of dollars and the personalities on the tour - Chris Ferguson, the Unibomber - Phil Laak, Joe Hachen and others add to the interest.
If you like watching it on T.V. - you'll enjoy playing the game on the PSP. There are a number of "collector" chips to get as well as expanding that bankroll to keep your interest.
