Auckland Skycity's Poker Reglars
Some of the more interesting poker regulars at the skycity casino are:"The Unlucky Redhead"- Always moaning how unlucky he his, when he calls an allin bet after the flop, with his pocket queens, with an ace king showing on the board.
"The Pornstar Grinder"- With his unbuttoned top, exposing his hairy chest and small gold chain, combined with the "Magnum PI" moustache, gives this regular skycity poker player that 70"s pornstar look -which makes you wonder if he makes his own "movies"
"The Greasy Cheat"- This Auckland skycity poker pro (who has been caught cheating but has been allowed back at the casino), with the gelled back hair and imposing size, likes to verbally abuse his opponents into calling his raises. He gets paid off by players, who dont like him, trying to bust him out and manages to bluff others who show him too much respect.
"The Aggro GF" - This girlfriend of the "Greasy Cheat", although small and petite, has a bite of a hungry pitball. Her spitting verbal attacks, when she has been bluffed or sucked out on, can be vicious.
"The Chinese Teddy Bear"- This young asian poker player, with no known job and seemingly unlimited bankroll, plays poker with such a reckless style that his massive swings seems suicidal. Although a very good player, other poker players invite him to play at their tables because of the action he brings.
"The Foul mouthed Drunk"- This self-proclaimed NZ"s best tournament poker player is probably one of the biggest cash game donkeys at the casino. He can be mildly amusing or incredibly offensive, when he"s drunk and playing poker.
But along with all of these regulars there are the casual punters who enjoy the odd game of chance. The Auckland Skycity casino is open seven days a week and run poker tournaments every weekend starting at midday. You can find out about the latest poker events here.
