Poker News – The holidays are upon us! Lists are being made, checked twice, and people all over are asking each other the question, “What do you want for Christmas?” In hopes of spreading good cheer and giving our audience ready answers when they are asked this question, we’ve compiled a list of 10 potential gifts a poker player can ask for this Christmas. Without any further hesitation, let’s get started!
1. RunGood App — $17.99
The easiest way to describe the RunGood poker app is “PokerTracker for live games.” The app lets you keep track of your poker sessions and provides stats and graphs of your results. With it, you’ll soon learn which games you earn the most in, and which poker rooms you fare the best at, among other insights into your poker game. The app includes filters, tags, goals, and multiple currency support that even fetches the latest exchanges rates automatically. What also sets RunGood apart is its intuitive interface and ease of use. Everything in the app is well thought out and a breeze to use. It has proven to be an indispensable tool for me, especially without access to online poker in the U.S. RunGood is essential to any poker player that plays in live games and tops our list of holiday recommendations this year.
You can currently pick up RunGood for 50% off on the iOS App Store, and we’ve heard it will be coming to Android in the first quarter of 2014.
2. Off Tilt Poker Tables — $1,699
No one really likes playing poker on the dining table or a cheap folding table. That’s why we love the custom poker tables designed and crafted by Bryan Knott of Off Tilt Poker Tables (www.offtiltpokertables.com). These are true furniture-quality tables designed and custom built with your choices right in the U.S. Best of all, it’s very affordable and won’t bust your bankroll. You won’t have to bluff the fact that you have a table built the company that has built tables for Phil Hellmuth, the World Series of Poker, DeepStacks Poker Tour, Michael Mizrachi, and customers all over the world.
Pricing starts at just $1,699 with solid wood pedestals, wood crating and insured freight to your home.
3. Portable Phone Charger — $19.99
This is without a doubt my favorite gift of the year. If you’re anything like me, a session at the poker table can lead to a drained phone battery more quickly than a verse of “Jingle Bells.” (Or at least it seems that way.) With this bad boy, you can simply plug the USB end of your cable into the charger and the other end into your phone. Boom. Just like that your phone comes back to life and you can continue to entertain yourself with tweets, videos, or podcasts between hands.
