This poker column has been running in The Guardian for seven years. For basic strategy advice, scroll to the end (September 2005) and read upwards. It gets gradually more complicated, including tournament reports and anecdotes as well as hand analysis, but is all intended mainly for the recreational player.

Whether playing online, with friends or at your local casino, remember the golden rule of poker: never play for sums you cannot comfortably afford. If you start losing, take a break. If you keep losing, stop.

Good luck!
