What You Will Need to Play Poker

If you're looking to play a good game of poker, there are a few things that you are going to need. By having these three necessary tools, you'll be able to sit back with the guys, light up a good cigar, drink a nice, strong drink, and play a couple (dozen or two) hands of poker. And who knows, maybe you'll get lucky this night and claim the prize. Who knows? So, here are the three things that you definitely need to get:

· Sturdy poker tables are an absolute must. You never know when you're going to bring your hands down on the table out of frustration. It would be a horrible thing if you happened to break the table and then you're just SOL. So, get a good poker table. It's a necessity.

· Good, easy to pick up and drop poker chips. You don't want poker chips that are easy to break, but you don't want cement poker chips either…Obviously. So, get the right kind of chips.

· A good table top if you don't want to get a table. For a similar reason, you want poker table tops that are not going to break and that look good.

If you want to play poker, do it and have a good time. But make sure that you have all the necessary supplies you need. One final thing you may just need if you're going to play poker is a deck of cards. But hey…I don't know.

New Zealand couple win poker tournament, get married

Last Saturday, Hollie and Perry Vogel moved up their wedding by 7 months after winning a poker tournament.

The tourney was at the Christchurch Casino in New Zealand, with a free wedding offered as the grand prize.

Appropriately called the To Have and To Hold'em tournament, 10 couples pitted themselves at the tables, playing in pairs.

Down to two couples, Hollie built up a stack and then Perry took it down in a quick heads-up punch of Aces that held up.
