Poker and Internet, everybody is talking about it!
Today, Internet poker has become a genuine fashion phenomenon and the French have taken to this game in a big way. Internet users are playing it all the more since it has become a hot topic in the media. This passion for poker can be explained by the major role TV has played in this boom. The USA was the first to get into the game in part because of channel ESPN. The astonishing success its broadcasts of tournaments such as WSOP (the best poker tournament in the world) has encouraged France to join the movement, and CanalPlus, in an innovative move, signed up French star Patrick Bruel, better known for his songs than for his poker performances (even though he won the WSOP a few years ago). The press followed and several magazines specializing in poker have appeared, the effect of which has been to create an ever growing passion to play this fashionable game.
On top of that, some tournaments are shown on TV cable channels programs in which French celebrities (actors, singers, etc…) play poker in a congenial atmosphere. The table is surrounded by mini cameras so that the audience becomes involved in the action, gets to know the game and the good hands of each player. The talent of the bluffer is seen live, and adds spice to the game.
Today, the face of the game of poker has been transformed. It is played online more and more frequently, so much so that many poker establishments offer private rooms to players who want to play between friends in freeroll or buy-in games. The main advantage of online poker rooms, is the availability of the room. The player can, at any time, enter a room and play, during the night or during the day. Francophone players, wherever they are in the world, can find one another to play in a francophone room (available on Titan Poker) that is made available to them.
