You might think that planning a Poker Party might be overwhelming but it is actually really easy. After reading this, decorations, food and drinks for your party will be very easy.
Let’s start with decorations first. If you don’t have a poker kit, you can find green felt at any fabric store. Poker kits include cards, chips and a good playing surface. More than likely you will not get away with any less than 35 poker chips, most experts suggest having 50 to 100 playing chips. If you don’t have that many and don’t mind mixing your poker chips, you may ask your guests to bring some of their own. If you’re playing Texas Hold ‘Em, make sure you have a special chip for the button. To top off your poker theme, buy some napkins and plates in casino themes decorated with anything that has to do with poker. Even though you might not be playing for much money, to add a little more to your theme, you can ask your guests to come in suits and ties for the men and cocktail dresses for the ladies.
With all these people and decorations, of course you are going to need to have food! If you are short on time, you can order several pizzas or simply set out some simple appetizers for your guests. However, if you want to go all out, you can make your own appetizers or buy hors d’oeurves you can warm in the oven.
In addition and as a bonus tip, you may also employ an online poker games like Dominoqq. This will certainly add more fun and excitement in the overall ambience of the party. Aside from the food, games are also crucial.
Finally, nothing sets a casino theme like drinks! You might want to consider the classic Poker drink, martinis. However if you just want to go for liquor, try a bottle of single-malt scotch. You can also mix cards and cocktails. Here is a fabulous recipe for a side car.
