You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to stop playing and get to that meeting.

I'm not much of a gambler.  My gambling skill and knowledge amounts to knowing the entire lyrics to Kenny Rogers' "The Gambler," and also to getting a little choked up each time I realize that somewhere in the darkness, the Gambler he broke even...

Give me a minute here.

Anyway, one reason I don't much care for gambling is that to gamble you have to go to casinos and casinos are usually very far away from me and almost always filled with people and smoke and noise and people! I'm not a fan of being in crowded noisy smoke-filled places where people are shoving and elbowing and getting all up in my business.

Another reason I don't gamble much is that I don't know very much about it. Aside from a brief stint playing poker for nickles in law school -- games in which I still lost thirty or forty dollars -- I've never had very much experience in gambling.

So in a nutshell: I don't like the places where people gamble and I don't know how to play the games anyway.  So if I were to gamble, I'd need to do it in my own home and have someone there to explain it to me, which means I'd need to go into the world of ONLINE GAMBLING.

DUH DUH DUH..

(It's hard to do dramatic musical breaks on a blog.)

That's where this Online pokies site I found comes in.  Pokies is kind of an Australian term for online gaming sites, and Pokies Aussie Casino can help you find the best ones around.  Their site provides reviews and links and information about all the best gaming sites, whether you want to play blackjack, poker, roulette, or whatever.  They'll tell you which online casinos are offering sign-up bonuses or the best payouts, and give you information on how to play to improve your game.

No weird people, no smoky rooms, just the fun of gaming at the pace and price you enjoy, from the comfort of your own home.  Or desk at work. But don't let your boss catch you. He'll demand a cut of the action.  That's 'gambler talk' for 'bribe.'  See how much I've already learned?

I don't gamble well when money is involved.
