Poker Becomes A Team Sport

A few casinos have already launched the concept of poker leagues, and one online poker room has recently followed suit. Poker has always been a social game, but an individual sport in terms of who to root for and determining who wins and looses. With the concept of team and league play coming to the fore, poker as a whole has been broadened to include the special attributes of working together as a group.Poker room.com recently started team play with a new format on its site. Players elect a team manager, who is the individual responsible for arraigning matches and managing the team wallet. Safeguards are in place that only allow a certain percentage of the wallet to be withdrawn for play by any particular member, preventing one person from blowing the team’s bankroll.
