The Ultimate Stripe Poker
Poker is one of the most sophisticated card games there is and it requires a great amount of concentration and planning ahead during the game. But it can also be used as a fun game to have a good time with friends with no concentration needed and hardly any planning ahead.
One of the most fun and funniest poker games to play is the legendary strip poker. This version of the poker game is a very popular one, and it is usually played without any preparations but more of "spare of the moment" kind of thing, which is a common mistake.
If you have been chosen to be the organizer of a stripe poker, it means your friends trust you with this responsibility and relay on you to arrange a fun and well organized game. Her are a few tips of how to do so:
In big professional tournaments or at online poker rooms you do not really care how your opponents look like, but in a stripe poker game you most certainly do.
That is the first important rule in being the organizer of the game- do not invite anyone you would not wish to see naked, and that includes better looking people then you. This is extremely basic; it is the main idea of the game- not wanting to lose your clothing but to enjoy when others do.
The second most important thing about organizing the game is to make the gaming environment as pleasant as possible. This can be achieved in several ways, but the most important is the appropriate lighting. Nobody likes taking off his or her clothing when the lighting is unflattering, especially when it is done in front of a lot of people.
The solution is, naturally, to find the most flattering lighting possible without needing to sit in the dark. The lighting recommended is a dimmed light, but not candles light- it is not a romantic evening, candles have no place at a true stripe poker. Note that it is extremely important to arrange the lights before people start to arrive, so it is simply taken as the natural lighting of the room, and not especially for the occasion.
Last but not least is the necessity of alcohol in the game, and this too should be done gently. I recommend having different kinds of drinks, but not to make it the center of the party. Have the drinks set at a different table then the one you will choose to play on. The goal is to have enough to loosen people up, but not too much so it won't be a drinking party.
These are the main tips for having an elegant (as elegant as a stripe poker can be) game of stripe poker, that will be fun and not make you not want to see these people ever again.
