Message: [QUOTE="Dmitrii Kopylov, post: 3332075, member: 219487"] It is known that poker like game appeared in China in 969 BC when the Chinese were playing cards and dominoes dominoes. They were called Domino cards, which the Chinese Emperor introduced the then elite. Until 1834 the poker was considered a game of gambling and fraud ( now of course many think so). And in the middle ages began to appear variations of such games in Germany and France. Back in 1834 I would like to say about one person-Jonathan green. He was a big fan of gambling and because of this, even went to jail. There he learned to play in Pogue, the French variation of the game and when I got out went to Mississippi, where he continued to hone his skills becoming the first professional poker player and the way he gave him the name of poker [/QUOTE]
