I go to one of the local casinos in Biloxi, MS or with a group of friends from work. I really enjoy this for a lot of reasons, but the two main reasons are there’s nothing sweeter than money won, and I love the gamesmanship of trying to outthink your opponent. The most popular game today of course is Texas Hold ‘em, but I play a lot of the games such as 7-card stud, Omaha 8 or better, etc. The poker boom has created tons of interest and lots of action in the poker rooms across America. Honestly, when I travel for work, I can always find a game. There are so many nuances to the game such as value betting, bluffing, reading your opponents, stealing pots, re-stealing pots, etc. That’s what makes poker unique, while you can play the same game for years; it’s never really the same game. It’s a great way to spend time with your friends. We have local poker tournaments and clubs with actual seasons. All of the information listed above is why Poker is my favorite hobby.
