WPTE and Chipleaders Break Ground on Interactive Online Poker Community

When people sit around a table playing poker, many times they’ll have the urge to strike up conversations with fellow players and make new friends. Until now, online poker players have only had the option of chatting with one another, and rather anonymously at that.

Seeing a niche to be filled, World Poker Tour Enterprises (WPTE) has entered into and agreement with Chipleaders to provide poker players with tailor-made social networking technology.

Useful poker information:

UNDER THE GUN - The position that has to act first in a round of betting.
DECLARE - In high/low games, declaring one's hand as high or low or both ways (usually done with chips in hand). Usually played in home games; casinos tend to play CARDS SPEAK.
FOLD - To decline to call a bet, thus dropping out of a hand.
QUARTER - [1] Twenty-five dollars, often symbolized by a green casino chip. [2] To divide half a pot between two tying hands. In split pot games, a player who "ties" another player for their half of the pot is said to be "quartered". One might say "I didn't bet my A-2 because I figured I'd get quartered".
BACK DOOR - Applies to a hand that was made in the last card or two, specifically not a hand the player was originally planning on having. Most often applied to straights and flushes.
