Even though one can’t accurately trace the origin of the game of Poker, there's no doubt about its initial popularity in the United States, from New
Orleans up to the Mississippi. We see a
literary first appearance around 1834, when a certain Jonathan
Green talks about a game of cards with
which he was able to come into
contact during his travels along
the shores of the Mississippi. Confirming this wide diffusion he
was already having in the early 1800s, it is
said that in every city in the
United States there was a bar in which one could play poker.Over time, poker has undergone many changes coming to the current versions: first increasing from 20 to 52 cards and then, in 1840, is made possible the exchange of cards and the rise of the blinds. It was only until later on that the Straight and Flush were added.
It initially was only considered as a game only for the elite, but as time went by the Game of Poker not only broke down racial barriers by becoming a game 'playable' by all, but it also spread itself through the development of the media. Main culprits would be television and radio programs, together with its relevance and online success. Now Poker is a sport for all purposes, also accessible to amateurs via freerolls (tournaments with free entrance), but for which there will be a prize pool.
