If Poker Players Had Entrance Songs...


Recommended Posts

Man he's soooooo sexy!!!U may laugh...but I actually HAVE an entrance song I play before I enter a poker room. Before every live mtt I have played thus far...before we start play, I leave the poker room. I usually hit the head really fast to make sure I am running on empty before I play. Then I "try" and find a little area to do some stretching. I have a bad back, so I need to stretch out before I play. Anyway...then after I am all stretched and ready to play...I put the Ipod on...blast it all the way...and as I walk into the poker room...my entrance/theme music is...Voodoo Child-Hendrix

This pic reminds me of those rumors circulating in the 90's about how at least three of the supermodels in the Victoria Secret catalogs were dudes.BINGO--here's one of them.

My personal choices (for me, of course):Head Like A Hole, NINLoser, BeckGo Down Gamblin', Blood Sweat and TearsThere are some other humourous ones that could apply to people, I suppose, but my brain just went into neutral...

That's awesome, Vick12. Mainly because I don't feel like such a knob for doing the same thing now. My "entrance" song (if such a thing exists for an online tourney) is an obscure one by a now-defunct L.A. band called The Serotonins (one album wonder). Their first song, "J-Lo" starts off with no music, just the lead singer screaming,"CUZ I'M A SEXUAL PANTHER, AND YOU KNOW THAT YA GOT TO KNOW THIS!"Then some crazy, sidekick guy answers,"Aww, sh*****t...yo J-Lo, what time's this party starting? Aww, I think this party's starting right NOW!!!"Stupid, but I find it totally, totally works for me.(BTW, if you like a rock/punk sound with completely nonsensical lyrics, I highly recommend their one album, "Easier Than Learning to Read" at http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/serotonins, or on iTunes. Such a shame they broke up after a drug-fueled meltdown at Burning Man a few years back...)
