Do you have what it
takes to play poker with the pros? Or maybe just the
skills necessary to take home a commendable
online
poker tournament? If so, then your opportunity to do
so may be right around the corner. Yes, I know - there's
one important thing I've neglected to mention. We all
know that it takes money to get started in the poker
world. And while you can start off playing very low
stake games with a meager bankroll, the fact of the
matter is that it takes big bucks to win really big
bucks.
Maybe the idea of
winning a really big pot is not your fancy. But, what if
I told you that you can play with someone else's money,
and would never have to put any of your own dough at
risk? Doesn't sound bad, right? Of course there is a
catch - you don't get all of your winnings. However, the
proprietary trading company, Manro Haydan, is hoping to
make the concept of investment gaming a lot more
digestible for the poker player.
Similar to hedge
fund trading, Manro Haydan hopes to entice more players,
who obviously must have the right skills and a good
track record to get some heavy funding. Knowing all too
well that the majority of poker players don't want any
Catch-21's and prefer to fund their entire game, Manro
Haydan is offering players a BadBeat, meaning that Manro
will cover all losses. 50% of any winnings simply goes
back to Manro.
What might at first
sound like a risky way to invest, Manro ensures
investors that the advent of online poker offers
inherent protection. In the online world, betting limits
can be preset, which coupled with the application of
risk management techniques, can keep the odds in the
favor of the investors. On top of this all, says Manro,
poker is exciting and fun. Hmmm. If you ask me, it
sounds just like gambling in the online casino or
fantasy sports betting. Essentially, it all comes down
to taking risks with money. Whether it catches on in the
online poker world or not - we'll just have to wait and
see.
