It took some rather “tough love” from my playing partners to figure out how it worked.Įventually, I discovered that burning cards are an important part of Texas Hold’em and variant of poker that involves play over multiple streets. In my initial outing, I had no clue what it meant to “burn” a card or that it even existed. Then, I discovered a local “Pub Poker” tournament and decided to give it a try. In fact, it was about two years before I even thought about playing in a live game.
When I first started playing poker, I was solely an online player.
