Free Internet Poker Keeps Me Out of The Casino
Poker |
Yes, it does.
It's free, and it's just as fun as playing with real money at the casino. When I win or lose big with Zynga poker, the thrills and disappointments are just as intense as the real thing, no doubt.
I have very easy access to a very nice casino where I live. It's a short 20 minute drive, all highway. Very tempting. Open 24/7, 365 days a year, of course!
I haven't lost money at any casino since 2010 (I only play Texas Holdem poker) but I know I have the potential to lose big. I have a bad habit with overconfidence in poker, a habit I'm working hard to train out of myself with help from my good friend Zynga.
I'm getting pretty good, but I can't call myself an expert. I've seen guys and gals walk into the casino with a few hundred dollars, play the 1/2 no limit tables all night, and leave with many thousands. When I can do that, then maybe I can call myself a pro.
And so, on this lazy and chilly Saturday afternoon, I present my:
Top 12 List of Signs That You're A Zynga Poker Addict
12) You believe that buying Zynga GOLD is a wise investment
that may end up paying for your kid's education.
11) You believe that donating $100,000 chips to a broke buddy
is such a noble gesture that you should be considered for the Nobel Peace Prize
10) You're so proud of reaching Champion Level status that
you spent $100 to have t-shirts printed.
9) You can't decide whether to change the baby's diaper, or
wait a few more hands for pocket rockets (you're due, after all.)
8) You test the intelligence of all potential mates with
this question, "Do you think going for an inside straight is a good
idea?"
7) Before teaching your toddler the alphabet, you set them
up on Zynga poker with $10,000 chips and have them play the 1/2 tables 3 hours
per day.
6) You believe that people who create poker bots should be
sent to prison for 10 years
5) You recently changed your middle name to "Vegas
Nights"
4) You often wait 5 to 6 hours on the Weekly Tournament
table for someone to show up and play.
3) On your resume, under achievements, you have listed
"Earned the 'Catastrophe Win' Award in Zynga Poker"
2) You can't fall asleep at night unless you've won at least
one Sit N Go Tournament
and the number 1 sign...
1) When you get the "You missed it" message when
trying to claim free poker chips, you sink into a severe depression for 3-4
days.
Zynga stock is not doing well. I support the company by buying lots of GOLD as often as I can (I play on G+, since I deleted my Facebook account more than a year ago.). Hope all you Zynga fans out there do the same. Would hate to see it go away.
