I love to play Texas Hold'em and that love is what got me into crypto in the first place a couple of years ago. I discovered Bitcoin when I was looking for a place to play online poker after Poker Stars kicked the US to the curb and shut us off from their site.
Discovering BROsino Poker on Steem was a great find - and I'm overjoyed that they have migrated to HIVE! I've found a fantastic FAMILY of like-minded poker players who play with integrity and for fun! So many freeroll sites don't play serious poker. They play like they have nothing invested and nothing to lose. Well, yeah, but that's no fun if you truly like poker. The BROsino gang plays it like we mean it!
Here's their website, so get on over there and sign up:
Their website is always improving and evolving. You can get all kinds of stats about your play and you have a profile page that other players can check out as well and see what you're made of. You can tell my mine that I may not be a great poker player, but I enjoy it and play quite a bit. Perfect timing for being house-bound and since it's free to play all the FREEROLLs, no challenge to your already in distress budget!
And no matter what you time zone is, there are always games going on. Ring Games, Tournaments, and Sit & Gos are all available. I'm showing you the tournaments tab here to give you an idea of the types and times of the different games. They range from FREEROLLS to an entry fee of 60 HIVE. And the games range from the traditional Texas Hold'em to variations of Omaha and even HORSE - which is a mixture of games within the same tournament. I started out knowing only Texas Hold'em but I read up and learned the rules to Omaha and Razz and 7 Card Stud. Now HORSE is actually my favorite type of tournament because I love the mixture.
And besides winning HIVE (that you can transfer out to your HIVE account at any time) in the tournaments, there is another way to increase your HIVE account. You win playing cards as well as HIVE in the tournaments and you can buy things with them and even sell duplicate cards for additional HIVe. Here's the explanation from the website:
Here are the cards I have earned while playing:
And I've already sold back several duplicates to get more HIVE but you can see that I have earned a few more duplicates since then that I can sell back. It's a very simple process - just click the card and VOILA - the HIVE goes into your account!
I'm including below the information provided on the website:
