Australian Players Get Expanded Poker Schedule
Even though online poker rooms operate all day long every day, there are times during any 24 hour period when there seems to be a dearth of tournaments available. If you happen to be logging on from Australia to a poker room run in the Northern Hemisphere, then you might be out of luck, but Titan Poker plans to change that. In honor of its Australian and New Zealand poker players, Titan Poker has expanded its suite of tournament offerings to include more reasonable hours - what would be considered peak hours Down Under.

Poker glossary:
- BAD GAME - Any game in which you figure to be the loser, because the other players are better than you.
- RAGS - Board cards that are small, not suited and not in sequence, e.g., 9-5-2. When "rags flop", it is unlikely that anyone has a good hand, except possibly the big blind in an unraised pot.
- ANTE - A small bet all players are required to make before a hand is dealt. Not all games have an ante. Related terms: BLIND, FORCED BET.
- RING GAME - A standard game where players can come and go as they choose. The opposite of TOURNAMENT.
- BLACK - When referring to chips, black usually stands for $100 casino chips. "This guy sits down with a stack of blacks and raises the first bet." Not ALL casinos use black for $100 but that is the common usage.
- BUTTON CHARGE - A periodic fee paid by whoever is the button, perhaps every 20 minutes or 30 minutes. Constitutes part or all of the HOUSE CUT.
