As the Ante goes up, the clothes come down
Poker online always had one distinct advantage over real poker, you can play it in your undies if you wish to. As of this week this advantage is gone. The Paradise Lakes Resort in Pasco County, Florida, is organizing a strip poker tournament in order to attract "younger people to the nudist lifestyle". Though the tourney can only be entered into by couples and single women, single men do not despair, because the Sin Gentlemen’s Club in Las Vegas is offering topless poker tournaments from February 7 onwards, where "as the ante goes up, the clothes [of the dealers] come down."
