If you want to learn to play well, get a book on low limit hold 'em (lee jones or lou krieger) or seven card stud (roy west) and perhaps Poker for Dummies, which has a great into to casino poker. on-line games will teach you bad habits unless you know what you are doing first. for web-sites, try pokerpages.com, cardplayer magazine has a good web-site and look for a web-site with lots of introductory advice from Andy Glazer. Most of all, have fun! P.S. It should help your kitchen game as well.
