The world of online   		betting has changed. Where once the only real action available was  		online poker,   		( poker en linge   		as the French would say), now there's online sports books, online   		casinos, online backgammon, online bingo, there's even online virtual   		horse racing (as differentiated from the betting on actual horses via   		the internet). With so many options for your gambling dollar, it can be hard to decide   		where to make your millions. For the gambler who likes to spread his   		roll across a variety of casino games, a strong internet poker   		room that offers other table games and betting options is the superior   		choice.
 There are several advantages to picking a big room with a diversity of   		games:
 
 1 Big rooms are more secure. A fly by night operation may be able to   		offer you a big initial bonus, but generally the terms are restrictive,   		and if the room folds, you've put yourself at risk.
 
 2 A Big room will generally have synergy between it's gaming options,   		outside of poker. Sure, it's fun to start with pocket rockets and flop a   		set of the big boys, but doubling down eleven after eleven ain't half   		bad either. Variety is the spice of life.
 
 3 Big rooms generally can afford to offer the best bonuses and   		promotions anyway, especially poker bonuses and blackjack bonuses.
 
 4 Sure, everyone's trying to hit the big score, whether you're playing   		500 man freerolls, or betting mountain's of black chips in Bobby's room   		at the Bellagio. But given that it's more likely you're doing the former   		rather than the later, it's also about fun. Would you rather play poker   		over the internet with a bunch of blokes from your hometown, or hit up a   		truly international poker room and casino? Whether It's casino en linge   		to the French, online poker to the Germans, (I know, pretty boring   		right), or however the heck you spell Chinese poker (not to be confused   		with the actual game, which is a blast), meeting more people from more   		places equals more fun.
 
 5 A room with both an active poker player's club, and casino player's   		club is going to reward it's most loyal customer's with vip service, and   		a whole host of frequent player rewards. Choose a room that let's you   		build up a lot of player points quickly, and let's you trade those   		points in for cool swag. Would you rather win a video ipod or a bunch of   		t-shirts? That's what I thought.
 
 Party poker hits all the bullet points. It's the biggest room around,   		it's got great customer service, and pretty sweet sign-up bonuses. The   		poker and online   		casino software isn't half-bad either. Party has a very secure   		random number generator, and is certified by Kahnawake gaming   		commission. If you're ready to hit the casino floor and mix it up with   		the high rollers (virtually of course), check out the rules for Texas   		Hold'em below:
