Depending on what skill level you play Texas Hold ‘em at you will want to choose the online poker sites that you play at very carefully.

Some sites are geared towards advanced and intermediate players, whilst others have a very high proportion of beginner or newbie players. Similarly some sites are stronger than others in particular Hold ‘em disciplines such as high level cash games, medium or low level cash games, large or small sit n go’s, large MTT tournaments with steep buy-in’s or no buy in at all (freerolls).

If you are a fairly new player it is likely that you won’t have a defined view as to what level or type of Texas Hold’em suits you. To a large degree this knowledge can only be gained through putting in the poker hours playing in different types of poker games.

Based on the different types of Texas Hold ‘em games on offer at the various poker sites and the likelihood of success based on the type of player you are I will provide a list of the main online poker sites and the skills required to be successful at them.
