A few months ago, seeing the Christmas holidays approaching, we wondered what would be the most beautiful gifts to give to a poker player. So we have launched a large survey with 500 professional players, and today we reveal to you the ranking that they have concocted for you. Be careful, surprises are at the key!
In fifth position in this ranking, poker players confessed to wanting to receive a cozy office chair, so as not to suffer from back and neck pain, after long hours spent sitting playing on their PC. Armchairs of this kind, there are at all prices and in all styles. This will therefore leave you with a margin of choice, if this is the gift that you choose to offer this year.
Again, you will be spoiled for choice. Books on the history of poker, autobiographies, anthologies of the greatest players in the world, advice on strategies... There is something for everyone, and above all, for all levels. So be careful to inform yourself about the degree of knowledge of poker that the person to whom this gift is intended will have: a novice would find it extremely difficult to understand the subtleties intended for experts, and this could put him off.
Another gift suitable for all levels. Many professional players propose to coach the most beginners, in order to help them evolve. Of course, this has a knock that will vary depending on the degree of knowledge and fame of the pro player. The price range may start around $ 30 per hour, sometimes reaching $ 200 for the most popular coaches. A cost that, if you choose the interlocutor correctly, can be greatly amortized by the gains that these tips will generate...
A great classic! This gift, although banal but always a pleasure, can suit all budgets. The professionals we interviewed are formal: any self-respecting player must have one of these briefcases at home. They usually contain all the necessary paraphernalia for a good poker night: deck of cards, game mats, dealer button, blind button, and chips. You know it now: if the recipient does not have this kind of material, this is THE gift for which you will have to opt this year!
Finally, for online players surrounded by children, or simply playing in a noisy environment, as for those who regularly visit casinos, noise-canceling headphones seem to be the trendy gift this year. It might seem surprising that this product, not being directly related to poker, comes in first place, but we understand this well when we realize the degree of concentration and rigor required by this game. Gift for certain types of players only.
