WPT Royal Flush Girls

So i wanted to write a bit about the Royal Flush Girls of the WPT. There is no doubt that these women are beautiful but what do they have in common with poker? Do any of them evn know the game or how to play it? I would presume that they know how to play but they are not by any means REAl poker players. 

Having this been said do they really represent the game or is it a sexual play that the WPT is using to lure men and women to watch? What are you thoughts? I am interested in knowing if you think that women models ( that is what they are) being used to advertise and promote the game is a good thing or should we use goodlooking women who are in the game now ( there are a lot of them) to promote the game? I am on the fence with issue but I also understand the business model behind the idea and it is smart business advertising and promoting to use these professinal models as front persons for the game.

I would suggest that using the poker women is much harder to use as models when they are consentrating on playing the game so mybe this is the only viable way for the promotion to go?

Give us your idea and thoughts and tell us which  Royal Flush Girl is you Favorite!!

Either way the Royal Flush Girls are hot and they always look good so if it brings viewers tot he TV or the rail keep it up....

Playing Online

I hated losing access to my online poker sites since black Friday and the sudden shut down of my online sites made me really pissed off. What gives the government the right to take away my right to chose? If i want to play poker or gamble on line or in a casino that is my right. Big brother went ahead and cut us off at the kness becasue they want to control the average person form becoming a gambling addict?....PLEASE. it's becasue they do not have control of it. It won't be long until they have their own poker or casino web site up and running themselves.

I hated not being able to jump out of bed in my PJ's and log on to 15 tables at once not having to wait in line for a seat to open and having numerous tournaments starting every second for me to choose from. Getting to play the game i love in the comfort of my own home at the pace and level i want to is awesome.

Now Poker Stars allows you to re-download the software and the program will run the same without a problem. I'm happy i can log back on and play again , i'm also happy i didn't lose any of my cash as well. I still can't seem to log onto Fulltilt or PKR but i am sure it won't be long.

it wasn't all that bad though, the poker rooms in the cxasinos were full , the underground card rooms like mine here in Toronto ( the Royal Poker room and the Toronto Poker Tour TPT) were full all the time. they still seem to be full but the beauty of playing in a bricks and mortar game will never be dwarfted by online play becasue there is something to be said about being able to sit across from your appoinents, look them in the eyes, shuffle your chips, play witht he cards give off false tells and all the the other things that come with playing in a card room. Even the overall social aspect is something to talk about. joining a game with friends or  bringing together friends for your weekely home game is awesome. You can't get that online even with the Poker Stars home game the feel is still not the same. I like the Poker Stars home game fopr many reasons and i will write about that in my next blog but for now, i am glad that some of the sites are up and running and we sharks can get back in the water to eat the fish.

Even though we are back  on line, please do not forget to drop by your local poker room or casino card room. We need these places to continue and promote the game. Drop by play afw hands and remember to tip the waitresses.

For now i'm off to play the 2-4 NLHem wish me luck!...oh ya , it's not about luck in this game.

talkt o ya soon
