Playing casino poker is quite different from playing in a home game. There are certain procedures and protocols you will need to understand before you sit down to play. It's not difficult making the transition from the kitchen to the cardroom and you will find that playing poker in the casino has many advantages over a home game.
One of the biggest advantages to playing in the cardroom is the availability of games any day or time you want to play. You won't have to worry if one of your regular players can't make it for the weekly game. You also don't have to worry about time constraints. You can play for as long as you want.
In a cardroom, you will find many players that are just out for a good time and don't play the game very well. When you are playing at home, and you have a poor player who loses all the time, he usually gives up playing after a few sessions. In a cardroom when a loser busts out and leaves the table, there are other players waiting to get into the game.
There are some procedures you need to be aware of when you play in a casino. You don't just walk up to a table and sit down. When you enter the poker room you must sign in at the desk. You tell the host what game you are interested in playing. If there is an opening you will be seated immediately. If the table is full they will take your mitials and call you when there is an opening. Some casinos have a large board where they will write your name or initials or they will write your name on a list. Either way you will be called when it is your turn.
When your name is called, the poker room host will show you to your table. In some rooms the host will ask you how much you would like to buy in for and get you your chips when you are seated. At other casinos you will purchase the chips from the dealer when you sit down. You are allowed to bring chips from other games. All games have a minimum buy-in, which for most low-limit games is usually $30.
