What If … PKR Points for Virtual Food & Drink

August 26, 2008

PKR Poker is at the cutting edge of online poker software with the best 3D poker environment, 3d avatars & stunning poker chip tricks … But I think they maybe missing a trick

Virtual 3D Food and Drink at the poker tables … how cool would that be ?

Our home poker games usually decend into a mix of poker chips, potato chips, lager, nuts and pizza boxes and somewhere in the middle the pot grows and the community cards get dealt. Big events like the WSOP with their huge fields of players also need to get fed and watered leading to carnage on the side tables …

Currently on PKR Poker you can use your points that you earn while playing poker for clothes and bling for your 3d avatar and also to add to your range of poker chip tricks which you can perform at the tables to kill time or impress the other players at your table.

How cool would it be if you could recreate this on PKR.com poker tables ?

You could drink gallons of coffee, sup on a bud or fill your side table with pizzas & offer others a slice … Or maybe this would just be taking the 3D poker environment too far ?

One thing is for sure is the idea isnt as lame as “Food Poker” a cant cook wont cook style cookery programme very (and I mean very) loosely based on poker, which is probably the lamest attempt at putting a poker angle into a tv show …

Look out for forcoming tv shows “30 minute poker makeover” where Abi Titmuss and DevilFish Ulliot turn urban semi’s into small versions of Las Vegas or “Gamble, Gamble, Gamble” where contestants gamble their houses in a poker game where they will be forced to trade up or down based on how well they play at the poker tables. Maybe “pimp my poker table” where Tim Westwood gets the chance to pimp your poker table with a built in lap dance pole, flat screens and under table card cams ready for your next home poker game.

Hopefully none of these shows will ever get made but while poker going into the mainstream is a good thing but the media jumping blindly on the poker bandwagon is not.
