Learning Poker requires time and consistency. I wouldn't say it’s not difficult but it's doable. Lot of the Poker Pro actually started as an amateur but eventually got to where they are now due to continuous practice.

Here is what you need to know

- We play poker with a special deck of 52 cards
- The goal is to make the best hand to win

I’ve also got some basic rules to follow

1. Put in your chips, it's more or less like money
2. Get your cards and lastly
3. Keep playing or you give up

Now, let's talk about the hand rankings from from best to worst;

1. Royal Flush : this is super rare
2. Straight Flush
3. Four of a kind
...and more

To be honest with you, poker is fun but you’ve got to learn the ropes.
 
It took quite some time for me to be able to master poker. It was frustrating for me when it seemed like I couldn't get the hang of it at first. Now, I can't say I'm an expert, but I'm pretty sure I could give my opponents a run for their money 😎

No one "masters" poker, one thing about poker is we are always learning when we play/grind.

Right, that is the most realistic thing to say. No matter how good one is, there's still room for improvement.

There is also more than one way to a result often. It's fun to be right about something and have someone point out to you a new idea.
