Poker Party

Poker Party

Having a poker party seems to be one of the hottest trends among young males in the 18 to 24 age range. Unfortunately, not as many women are into the game and have become quite exasperated with this addiction.

Poker is definitely a guy's game. The only women who seem to be interested in poker are either trying to hook up with one of the male players, or she is a certified cheater! I don't know if part of poker's appeal has to do with the word itself. Young guys are amused quite easily and can be painfully immature. Perhaps there is a sexual connotation in the word itself that they just can't get enough of, that they feel will invoke them with some sexual prowess previously found lacking. Whatever the appeal, women in general are not enamored with the game itself or with the young men who have fallen prey to it's vice. The sooner men get this through their heads, the happier we all will be.

So, in the name of peace and harmony, here are a few pointers:

If guys want to have a poker party, then they should be prepared to spend the evening without female companionship. I don't know what it is - perhaps a combination of things: from entirely too much testosterone in one room, gorging themselves on way too much pizza and beer, indulging in smelly cigars and telling way too many dirty jokes, but when these men return from a poker party they are best advised to head straight to bed, perhaps stopping only for a cleansing shower, and then calling it a night. No woman in her right mind is going to want to spend the rest of her evening with a guy who's been reduced to the lowest common denominator by an evening of poker.

In fact if you want your lady friend to care about your gaming skills at all, the only way to bring it up is by buying her something really lavish and then nonchalantly slipping into the conversation that you bought this special gift with your winnings. Simply bragging will get you nowhere and will only dig you into a deeper hole, falling out of the good graces of your lovely lady.

Never ever admit that you were cleaned out in a game. You will never be allowed to play again, if you want to keep your girl. She will not feel sorry for you and will ban all forthcoming poker parties that you may have in your plans. Also realize that she will never forget about it.

At the end of the day, we all need to realize that some games are best left to the boys. Let's keep it that way and then everybody will be happy!
