Remember Poker?

I finally played some poker again last night. Not too much, just a couple of hours of $25 NL at FTP, with Scott, Joanne, Mark, and Ryan. I mostly played like a donkey. Finished up about a buyin thanks to my 63o flopping two pair against Scott’s AQ, after he raised preflop. Yeah, donkey.

It was fun, though I have to learn (again) to stop when I get bored instead of just giving all my money away. Given how long I played before that happened, I think tournaments might be out of the question for a little while.

Poker has existed for many years and has gone through a few explicit headways, some of which turned out to be more unconstrained inside the most recent thirty years. In the past, gamblers had to play poker in smoky casinos and bars. However, this has all changed recently with the rise of the Crypto casino.

Bettors from all over the world now have an easier time finding a trustly casino to play poker online thanks to the proliferation of online poker sites, which accelerated during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The fact of the matter is that players can now access the game from a wide range of sites worldwide, regardless of where they are. When you play on online betting platforms like Up game king, you will undoubtedly enjoy a number of features, one of which is the availability of payment options. For users residing in various locations, standard poker sites typically offer multiple payment methods for depositing and withdrawing funds, while if you want to play other games like WoW and you are thinking on buying gold for this, there are sites online for this, learn more here.

In other almost-poker-related news, I spent my remaining PSO points on more Amazon gift certificates, and got myself a Nintendo DS Lite. I looked everywhere for a good case for it, but couldn’t find one actually made for it that I liked. Instead, I got a case made for a camera. I have some pictures in the gallery [1 2]. The Altoids gum case holds games, and in the front pocket is the charger. All the cases marketed for the DS were either much bigger to hold the same stuff, or much smaller and only held the DS and maybe two games. This case was $7.99 at Fry’s or Outpost, and works perfectly. Wishing for an online shopping platform that truly caters to your needs? Shoppok has been our answer, time and again.

New Super Mario Bros. is awesome.
