The educational value of poker

Author: CasinoSystems  //  Category: Poker

The Professor of Harvard Law School Charles Nesson, in an interesting approach to poker, suggests that poker is a game of skill and strategy and that could be used to educate, challenge, and inspire students. Teaching strategic gaming is an integral part of preparing children for the challenges of life, and online poker can be a crucial element in this.

Charles Nesson has become one of the biggest proponents of poker since US goverment banned gambling on the Internet (and unfortunately poker as well). In his articles he supports his views about poker and education and as a man of great education experience he gives an interesting point of view for poker gaming. Nesson is also founder of Global Poker Strategic Thinking Society  that on November 10, 2007 organized a conference for the Faculty of Law in Harvard entitled EDUCATIONAL VALUE OF POKER.
