| 02 Oct | Top 5 Fashion AccessoriesPosted by PokerBarney on 12:10PM, 2nd Oct 2006Permalink | Send to a friend | |
This week I decided that I would tap into my feminine side and maybe let loose with some fashion tips.
With the huge TV coverage that the WSOP is getting these days, it is becoming more and more a place for people to show off their poker fashion tastes. I found a few little nuggets that you shouldn't be without, either at the casino or at your local home game.
|
Greg Raymer's snake eye glasses - The big man wore them when he played the WSOP in 2004, and he won! Imagine wearing these at your home game.. imagine the look on your friend's faces when you pull these bad boys out and whack them on, then stare them into the ground. Awesome. |
|
Classic poker visor - Green, tinted, looks like you should be wearing dungarees to go with it - marvellous. If you're dealing for the night because you're too drunk to make sensible poker decisions, slap this on your head and really play the part. Shuffle up and deal! |
|
World Poker Tour hat - There are very few players on TV now that play without some sort of headgear, whether it's a visor,a hoodie, a cowboy hat or a balaclava. The favourite is still a good old standard cap though. Pull it low and conceal your eyes and your tell-tale "I've got KINGS!" expression. |
|
Silver quad aces cufflinks - If you're the rich fancy smart type, these little beauties are bound to put a little bit of extra fear into your opponents. Make sure you flash them when you reach out and raise the quivering mess at the end of the table who calls himself "Phil". |
|
The ultimate boxer shorts - Alright, so no-one can see them (unless you get really lucky!), but you'll know they're there. The poker gods will surely shine on someone who keeps them so close to their heart.. or crotch. Either way, it's a great means for distracting people while you rail their chips. |
For the geeks
For the online geeks that don't get out (ie, me), or are too young to get into casinos (ie, not me), or have too few friends to host a home game (ie, me) - there is a way you can spice up your poker life too. And you're going to love it.
Software!
|
PokerAcademy - Widely respected as the best training package around. You can play against world leading artificially intelligent bots and be continually offered advice on how best to play. You can edit your opponents skills to make them tougher (or worse, if you want to practise against donkeys!), and then you can thoroughly analyse everything afterwards. |
|
Stacked - Brought to you by Daniel Negreanu himself, Stacked is similar to PokerAcademy, and uses some of the same AI to drive the computer opponents, but it's packed with audio commentary and advice from Daniel. It also features many other pros, such as Evenlyn Ng, Erick Lindgren, Jennifer Harmon, David Williams, Josh Arieh and Carlos Mortenson. What more could you want! |
|
WSOP Champions - A story based game, where you play the part of a new protege of Chris "Jesus" Ferguson. You will test your skills in small circuit events before hoping for an invite to the WSOP Tournament Of Champions. Crammed with more pros - Joseph Hachem, Scotty Nguyen, TJ Cloutier, Antonio Esfandiari and Jennifer Tilly amongst others, it's a wonderful immersive experience. |
And if that wasn't enough, there's plenty more poker software for you to choose from.
Enjoy!
