Just wondering what's a good site to practice playing poker for a beginner? I don't want to outlay any money just play for free and get some experience.

Most sites provide two options, real money or "fake" play chips. I'd suggest using the play chips to start to get a feel for the game, learn how the screen buttons work and build up some confidence.

I'd suggest poker stars as your first port of call.

888poker. You will get a small start-up capital to start the game for real money.

There are 3 options for you.

You can sign up at a poker room like 888 and use their no deposit welcome bonus to start with and play a few small buy in tournaments.

You can sign up at any poker room and use their free option, this is like the real option however you are given a free balance and can use that to enter free tournaments.

You can sign up to somewhere like Americans cardroom. They offer freerolls on demand, this means that there are always freerolls for you to register into and play for free and have the chance to win a little bit of money if you finish in the top 10.

Think I would skip any play chips and start with freerolls, watch some poker videos on youtube, join a training site, post hands in the forums, etc.

Definitely start playing freerolls and if you happen to win some cash play the smallest stakes, and I'd suggest watching some streams/ youtube videos that explain the basics. Easy and fun way to learn ^^

Good luck mate!

I think americas cardroom or 888 is a good start, 888 has a free bonus, and in cardrom there is an hourly free tournament.

A good choice on pokerstars is going on the schoolofpoker they have a step by step way, and the beginning bankroll manager that helps you to build a start baby bankroll a friend of mine gets $2.3 dollars doing this, it can see very few money but just think that he started by nothing.

I believe this school of poker and the inteli poker have the same program but in different online sites.

Hello friend, how can I get this bonus without depositing? I already registered on 888 but I did not get any money to start the bank

As from the previous I would start with play chips then when you feel like you're ready you can throw yourself in the freerolls and start building up a small bankroll to enter cash games. That's what it did and I know have a small bankroll which is gradually increasing.

Play pokerstars and play with the play money option first. When you get the feel for the game, turn to real money and play the freerolls. Try also 888 Poker, they give a nice start up bankroll to begin your poker carreer. :)

I think the poker school from PokerStars is the best today! 888покер well, but there is right on the money, for a beginner this is not the best solution!

Learn the poker school from PokerStars complete courses and enroll in a League,where you get a little experience and earn some money! :) + there are freerolls where you can also raise your level a little! But in the future if you poker interesting should not play freerolls, you need to play tournaments for money, there is absolutely another level of the game!

For beginner, I advise to join the PokerStars site. Here is a large selection of tournaments and cash games on play chips, a lot of freerolls and there is a poker league. There are a lot of poker variations.
