I have been a member of the underground poker community for
quite a few years. When you attend as many games as I have, you start
recognizing faces and building friendships. You also start building a false
sense of security, and forget that you're attending an event that typically
lures in the degenerates of the world on bodog poker.
It's an absolute necessity to take bodog poker steps before jumping into the
world of underground poker.
It shouldn't come as a surprise that many underground poker environments prove
tempting to robbers. Hosts and patrons alike should take heed. Now, that's not
to say that you need to pack heat every time you sit down at the table. In fact,
if you're regularly attending a game at bodog poker that makes you feel
as if a firearm is required for safety, that alone should spur you to start
searching for a new one.
But there are many warning signs that the game you're walking into may be a
magnet for unsavory characters like bodog poker. Here are some underground
environments that you'll want to steer clear of bodog poker.
Underground poker robberies do happen -- and they happen often. In my own
experience, four local games were held up over the course of one holiday season
within a circuit that I attend. The cash taken from each game varied, but each
time it was in excess of $5,000 US. One game at bodog poker was taken for nearly
$20,000. The players in attendance were also made to empty their pockets, and
the thieves made off with their wallets, jewelry and cell phones.
There are some questions to ask yourself to determine if the game you're headed
to is an appealing robbery target. How big will the game be? How did the host
spread word about it? How reputable is its location? How secure would you feel
walking to your bodog poker vehicle at the end of the night? Will the host
provide security? And what is the general appearance of the players that you see
in attendance? Largely, these are common-sense questions, but frequently
overlooked nonetheless.
Over-populated games
If you're attending a game that has over 30 people in regular attendance at
bodog poker, chances are that poker players aren't the only ones who have heard
about it. Word spreads about a great game in a fashion that would make a
multilevel marketer green with envy, and it doesn't take long for it to reach a
less than desirable ear.
Hosts can also over-market a game. Many underground games advertise themselves
on newsgroups, forums and bodog poker via the Internet. If your intuition tells
you that this isn't a terribly sensible idea, it's because it isn't. Many robbed
games have one thing in common: They were publicly advertised online.
Foreign games
Be wary of unchartered territory. If you live in the bodog poker, it might not
be a great idea to drive to the inner city to play in an area that you aren't
familiar with -- much less in a game that you aren't familiar with. Many games
don't have parking facilities in the immediate vicinity. If you have to walk to
your vehicle at 4:00 in the morning with $3,000 in winnings stuffed in your
pockets, how safe would you feel taking that walk in an unfamiliar bodog poker
neighborhood?
