One have heard quite a few stories about men (not so often women) who have tried to hit on girls at the poker tables. Mostly these guys end up disappointed and losing money. Well, it doesn't have to be like that anymore! Not long ago, a big online dating site announced that they will start organizing amateur poker tournaments for singles.
The first tournament will be held at Casino Cosmopol in Gothenburg, Sweden on 1st April. A spokesmen at the dating site in question said in an interview with a poker magazine that they usually have more girls than guys when they organize activities for singles.
"The thought is to find a different and funny activity for singles. The singles tournament we are organizing is mostly about playing poker at amateur level in a relaxed environment and check out each other a bit more discreet." said a spokesmen of the dating site.
he continues...
"Among our activities there are usually more girls than guys. Now we hope that more guys will show up as poker usually interest them."
