Ted, I can't get into poker.....in fact, I get bored.

If anything, Poker is a lot more interesting and complex than Blackjack. For one, you're not playing against the dealer, who must hit according to house rules, but against other players, who have their own play styles. Also in Blackjack, you can't bluff your way out of a hard 16 or other bad hand, but in Poker, you can win thousands of dollars just by pretending the two deuces you have is actually a full house.

I personally haven't gotten into Poker yet because frankly I'm kind of intimidated by the complexity of advanced competition and I don't have nerves of steel (or at least I can't afford to have such nerves yet like Toby McGuire or Ben Affleck could).
