Poker For Dummies: You Can’t Read My Poker Face
March 16th, 2010When we talk about gambling, the first thing that comes to our mind would be playing cards, money, casinos and Las Vegas. Those are all true. In fact, you’ll find all of those in Las Vegas, too. Don’t forget the cancan dancers in clubs and a lot of people sitting by slot machines, having a bag full of coins. I’ve never been to Las Vegas yet but I’ve seen a lot of movies shot in Las Vegas.
One of the movies was Back To The Future. Michael J. Fox went to the past and back to the present time, only to find that the present time was changed because of single predicament in the past changed and didn’t happen. So when he got back to the present, he was shocked to find out that almost everything suddenly converted into Las Vegas. Gambling and drinking everywhere. I believe it was kind of fun simply because you could do anything as you please.
Needless to say, that is what I preferred to do when I was kid. Nearly all kids I know do not want to go to school and would prefer to just play all day. I thought life was as simple as a game. Well, I still want to believe that life is a game and we are generally all gambling real hard to win it.
So now that I’m a grown-up, I have come to know a lot of men and women who loves to gamble. From playing a basic card game to the intricate poker game that I’m still having a difficult time to comprehend until this very day. My older sister has already been trying to teach me how to play poker but my mind will not just take any of the instructions that she’s giving me so for now, I choose to just watch her play poker online. It is funny since people have become so immersed with the game to the extent they even created an interactive web poker game application for facebook.
There are times when I hear my sister screaming out in front of her computer and it turns out that she is playing poker and she screams either because of entertainment or out of anger. I ask her what makes her scream so loud when it’s just another computer game. I get another angry scream from her saying that it is not just another computer game since it is as very good as the real thing. It’s actually a good thing that the cash she lost isn’t really the real thing. I asked her how much she lost and she said that she lost virtually $500,000. I assumed maybe if she went to a real poker game and really lost that kind of amount, she’d most likely end up selling our house and things to get back to a poker game.
Each time I log in to my facebook account, a number of my online friends send me a personal chat message asking if I want to play a poker game with them. I just tell them that I can’t because I don’t know how to play poker. All I get in return is “LOL” which is an internet slang and an abbreviation for Laughing Out Loud or Laugh Out Loud. Maybe it is about time I educate myself on the game. Who knows? Maybe I possibly could become quite a great poker player and all I really need is a push to give me a head start. When that happens, I am going to have the last LOL.
