Best Poker Accessorizes for Skilled Players

Cards

From the basic (KEM, Hoyle, Bicycle) to the fancy (Civil War, Ancient Egypt, Jack Daniels, etc.), you'll find a good selection of card decks that run from under $5 to over $20 at either the aptly named House of Cards or the Gamestore.

Chips

Poker Chips has the most incredible selection of chips (for a custom order or direct purchase) available online.  If you simply want to buy plain chips in bulk at good prices, Games for Fun might be a better match for you.

Tables

Although any table or playing surface will do, Kestell poker tables add both beauty & convenience to any poker game with their chip trays, beverage wells, and fine wood finishes. Our current pick for the best prices is PokerProducts.

Books

Two of our favorite authors for real-life poker stories are Michael Konik ("Telling Lies & Getting Paid") and A. Alvarez ("Poker: Bets, Bluffs, and Bad Beats" as well as "The Biggest Game in Town"). For home games, we recommend Peter O. Steiner's "Thursday-Night Poker".

Movies

Maybe you and your poker buddies (or poker sweetheart) would prefer to sit back and enjoy a poker movie on DVD. Check out two excellent poker movie lists from Ken Churilla and Steve Badger. More than the usual suspects like "The Cincinnati Kid" and "Rounders", each of these lists is fairly comprehensive.

Jewelry

Looking for lucky charms to give as a gift to the special poker player in your life? These 14k-gold poker charms are simple but elegant and would look equally fine on a bracelet or chain.

Chocolate and Candy

Two great passions collide when poker and chocolate come together. Ante up for mint-chocolate or milk-chocolate poker chips or enjoy an extremely sweet (chocolate, that is) monster hand. Vegas Image has plenty of choices for poker enthusiasts with a sweet tooth.

Art

Remember those poker-playing dogs (of which "Dogs Playing Poker" and "A Friend in Need" are probably the most famous)? Cassius Marcellus Coolidge's "art" celebrating poker and dogs has become a part of American culture. For his series of prints, Art.com has the best selection and prices.

Poker Diary

Keeping a diary is based on personal preference, but there is no doubt that it can be the most useful "accessory" to own. It may be a paper notebook to write new poker terms you carry with you or an online diary like the one offered on the Hendon Mob's site.

Boxes

Baracraft produces unique wooden boxes by hand for playing cards. Made of aromatic cedar, you can choose between a single-deck style or one that holds two decks with your choice of initials or design (such as an eagle) engraved onto the box. Custom work is also accepted.

We hope you'll have fun with the variety of poker accessories on this list. As always, we'd love to hear from you if you know of a great poker accessory that's not on this list.

Whilst low limit games played by inexperienced amateurs might well be heavily influenced by luck, in high stakes games where the better players tend to concentrate the importance of skill comes to the fore. In top poker competitions there are successful star players just like there are in other games such as football tennis and snooker. This is not because they are simply luckier than the other players , it is because they utilise well practiced tactics and strategies to consistently outplay their competitors.
