Host Your Own Poker Night

Host Your Own Poker Night - The history of poker is a matter of some debate. The name of the game is likely descended from the French ‘poque’, which descended from the German ‘pochen’ (’to knock’; also means ‘to brag’ in Dutch). Yet it is not clear whether the origins of poker itself lie with the games bearing those names. It closely resembles the Persian game of ‘as nas’, and may have been taught to French settlers in New Orleans by Persian sailors. It is commonly regarded as sharing ancestry with the Renaissance game of primero and the French brelan. The English game ‘brag’ clearly descended from brelan and incorporated bluffing (though the concept was known in other games by that time). It is quite possible that all of these earlier games influenced the development of poker as it exists now. So there you go, you learn something new every day!

Saying all that, who cares about the mumbo jumbo of yesteryear?! All we know is that it’s a great game and there is no better way of spending an evening than going to the local casino with your buddies and having a good old game of poker. But thanks to the mighty box, you no longer have to go to the trouble of sorting out a taxi, what time you’re going to meet your mates there and sorting a time for the taxi to pick you up, because ladies and gentlemen, Prezzybox will bring the casino to you!
