The card game, Texas Hold`em, has recently seen a dramatic rise in its participation and popularity in Australia and world wide. Perhaps due to its frequent appearance on free to air and Pay TV or possibly with the latest World Series Champion being a home-grown Aussie. Whatever the reason, the fact remains that in many Casinos in Australia there is great support for the game with the avid fan and the curious punter alike, playing the game in great numbers. Judging by the waiting lists at casinos, there is no shortage of players wishing to \"give it a go.\" We wish to send the management of the Reef Casino Cairns the message that there IS a definate need to add Texas Hold`em tables to their facilities.
