Casinos and Gaming Circles
Want to walk through the door of a real casino? To sit down at a real money table and feel the thrill of chips and the dizziness of a real pot? If so, go to the official facilities for playing our favorite game: Circles and Casinos.
Both offer poker games, with the simple difference that casinos are generally smaller and casinos also offer games of pure chance, such as roulette, craps or slot machines, which you won't find in gambling circles.
The rules and regulations for entry into these establishments differ by structure and country. In addition to legal restrictions on the age or profile of players accepted, entry may be subject to a fee or annual membership, but in most casinos, you will simply push open the front door to enter the world of gambling.
Poker Room, Cash game and tournaments
Generally, a "poker room" is the space reserved for poker. After going through the registration desk to register for the cash games or tournaments you want to play, you will be called to one of the tables, with a designated seat. The casino takes a commission on the tournament entry fee, usually equal to 10% of the buy-in, or less for more expensive tournaments. For cash games, a set percentage is taken from each pot played by the players, with different details depending on the country and the establishment.
For tournaments, the richness and variety of the program depends on each casino. Some special events, such as poker festivals, can boost the game offer, with higher guarantees, player numbers and buy-ins, in addition to the regular tournaments, which are usually offered throughout the week. Some establishments offer tournaments for only a few dozen dollars, while others cater to a more affluent clientele, with buy-ins that can reach tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.
A staff at the disposal of the players
In both casinos and gaming circles, a full staff is on hand to ensure a professional, seamless and secure gaming experience for customers.
The dealers ensure that the cards are dealt and that the moves run smoothly, the floors supervise the tables and intervene in case of disputes, while the tournament director oversees the poker events that are organized by the establishment.
Poker all over the world
Casinos are the most widespread gambling structures on the planet. Some of them look like real gambling paradises, with rooms covering thousands of square meters, while others offer more intimate spaces, with only a few tables. Some countries are more open to gambling and have hundreds or even thousands of casinos, while in other territories, casinos are rare or non-existent. Push Or Fold has listed the establishments around the world, so that you can find out about the gambling offer in your vicinity, no matter where you are on the globe.
