Exclusive Online Poker Room for GLBT Community
 September 20, 2006, 1:25 pm (5 years ago)ComeOutPoker.com has been intended not only to present the quality online poker facilities found at traditional sites, but also to fashion an environment where players can build up a sense of community, post and view profiles and photos, and communicate with each other. An element of the site is a variation of Texas Hold'em which is exactly the same as the original except that straights are eliminated from the hand hierarchy.
This new online poker room has been launched, marketing itself as the only online poker site targeted specifically at the Gay Lesbian Bisexual and Transgender (GLBT) community.
The site, which is run on Propriety Software and licensed in Antilles, shares most tables with the Bugsy Club network of players.
ComeOutPoker.com guesstimates that there are close to 3.6 million gay poker players in the US alone, and while the site was created specifically for the GLBT community, it is not restricted for all other online poker enthusiasts.
“Poker has long been a way for people to come together in a community-like atmosphere to meet, play and have fun” said ComeOutPoker.com spokesman Marc Willis. “The GLBT community is long overdue to enjoy the same excitement and fellowship that has been readily available to the straight community for years.”
Humans only can be discriminated by gender and preferences. Not their wallets! Any group can ‘Come out’ ‘straight’ away and play poker!
