The Best Season to Play Poker
Here’s a simple question to start your day: When is the best season to play poker? You have four to choose from, each with their own characteristics, so which one is the most conducive to a successful run of poker?
We’ll start with spring. Spring is the season of rebirth and new life as everything comes out of hibernation. This includes people. Spring may be too exciting a time to sit down and devote three hours to a poker game, because there’s too much going on, and too many new things opening up to try out.
Next up is summer, which shares the same deterrents as spring. It’s warm, so people are inclined to go on vacations. Maybe they’ll play a few hands of poker on vacation, but they won’t be completely into it. They’ll always be thinking about what else they could be doing.
Next up is fall, when the indoor sports start up. This season is probably best suited for poker, pun intended, because people are starting to wind down and prepare for large gatherings. Outside it’s cooler, and inside the beer is getting heavier. People will be more inclined to sit a spell and play a few hands in the fall.
Lastly, winter. Good luck getting people to come over to play cards in the snow. While the warmth of the inside is very inviting for poker players, it will be tough to get people to leave their warm homes to come to yours. Fall wins.
