I recently played Poker Superstars II for the PC. You play against the pros and ofcourse, it’s Texas Hold ‘em poker. The first game I lost all my money and was the first to be eliminated. How crushing to the ego. However, the second game I cleaned house and was the last poker player standing (er, sitting) at the table.? Now, granted, I did have the game set so the pros would play as amateurs(read: easy level). Maybe once I get more of the hang of hold ‘em I’ll put the game setting higher.

The more I play Texas Hold ‘Em, the more I like it. Maybe I’ll get brave and actually start playing online.

Gamerdad.com is run by a stay at home Dad(or should I say work at home Dad. Running a website takes work!). The site brings solid reviews of games that are family friendly.

It’s a great place to get the lowdown on games for kids. The reviews are well done, and the forums are really active. A nice community of gamers with kids, which is an ever growing market as us kids that grew up on video games have children of our own.
