Poker and Palindromes

I am about to expose you to my inner geek/mensa nerd side – I love palindromes – words like tattarrattat, Anna, Racecar, Madam, Wow – well, they just intrigue me.   No matter how you read it – you get the same result – same outcome – same word.  (ERE is another example of a  palindrome which is why this is relevant).  Poker on the other hand is the complete opposite – while it is all about reading someone – the reading is not so easy – it’s a challenge to know when someone you just met is bluffing or not…its more like the sister of a Palindrome – A Semordnilap which does the same thing – but read backwards creates an entirely new word (like -stressed / desserts  or god / dog) but that is just getting off topic.

So – when I got offered a chance to help out and sponsor this years ERE Poker Classic – how could I say no?  We have added a page onto the hrtechnologyblog.com home page to function as the ‘official’ site for this year’s game and should have all the details you desire as well as a way to RSVP.  The game this year is open to everyone at all skill levels and the buy in is low – so lets get all of the attendee’s playing poker Wednesday night – It all goes for a great cause!

Thanks to all of the sponsors (will be posted on the site soon) as well as the real team doing all the work to put this together!
