Poker strategy website PartTimePoker.com has released three new tools aimed at helping novice players get a handle on the popular pastime.

The Poker Quiz, Opinion Survey and Forums will also provide established players with ways of making their voices heard in the new year.

With the last few years having witnessed a poker explosion both online and in the popular consciousness a growing number of players are wanting to learn the ins and outs of the card game.

PartTimePoker hopes that its online quiz will provide a benchmark for poker puzzles, with users being able to vote on the best play for a particular hand and then compare results with others.

Part of the discussion process will take place on the forums, which also reward users with prizes the more posts they make.

Those wanting to make more active contributions to the online world are also catered for, say PartTimePoker. The company advises that its opinion survey will let online gamblers suggest new directions for the game in 2007.

All those who complete the survey will also stand a chance to win one of ten iPod shuffles, the website reveals.
