US Players Poker, online poker, Texas Holdem
A new game, so called non-chance version of poker, is to be launched this fall by Carlyle Gaming and Entertainment – the fairly new name in the online casino gaming industry.
The game is claimed to be similar to traditional Texas Hold’em poker, but it has a twist taking out the element of chance to the game and putting the poker game into the realm of skill based gaming.
With the U.S. allowing forms of skill-based gaming and some carve-outs for internet horse-race betting, this game has been specifically designed in accordance with the U.S. regulations.

23-year-old Michaela Johansson, the full time poker player already, is reported to have joined the
Betfair poker team. Now, on her travels she will be representing
Betfair. This news has been well received in the industry.
With the long term benefits of sponsoring up and coming poker players and the knowledge that the player’s profile will grow as the team members progress, the decision could not be different. Though, there is always risk of signing up new, up and coming stars of poker.
Betfair is already associated with Annette Obrestad, the past WSOP main event winner. So, Michaela Johansson turned out to be in a very good company.
