My House Always Wins
|
 |
By: Jim Markus
I love going out and all but lately more and more of my friends and I rather stay home to play poker and casino games than dressing up and rub shoulders with the madding crowds. Call us anti-social, but playing from home didn't become one of the most popular past times for nothing!
Here are five reasons why playing from home rules over our leisure:
1) At a price of two movie tickets plus popcorn I can spend a couple of hours playing, and I can assure you it's twice as thrilling and interesting than any franchise/action/comedy/drama movie you'll get to see this summer that is going to bring yet another attack of the sequels…
I laugh, I cry, I cheer the hero (me of course…), my adrenalin pumps, and I've got all the elbow space I need to do it. No one makes me sit through 30 minutes of commercials and I never overcharge myself for sodas…
2) Sometimes it's just about having a relaxing evening to ease my mind off work quietly with myself, without going to the pub where you can't even smoke anymore while the price of beer is climbing through the roof…and this way I don't get a hangover.
3) What I love about online poker games you play from home is that you spend time doing what you love with people that feel the same. So basically I hang out with friends without losing my parking space. But the best thing is that the chat window is too small for them to start telling me about their kids or how they argued with their boss, and you will never, but never, be shown ten thousand photos from their recent vacation!
4) I like going out on dates – sometimes you win, sometimes you lose – but when I'm having a blind date losing streak, well, it makes me wish I could at least get frequent dater points or something…
5) I could watch some TV I guess, but why waste my time on endless reruns when I can watch funny and cool videos on the web between rounds, and still be free for some more active entertainment!
