Wow that YouTube, I\’ll-tell-you-what …
So yeah, the song PokerFace by Lady Gaga … it\’s at the top of the charts these days. It hit #1 for UK Singles this week, it\’s #3 on the \”Hot 100\”, #2 on the \”Pop 100\”, and #9 on the Mainstream Top 40. And … it\’s all over YouTube.
Apparently teen (and pre-teen) girls across the country world are flocking to webcams while dancing to a song that shamelessly glorifies Texas Hold\’em. Whether we might be seeing the next tough female pros or gold-digging railbirds, I\’m not so sure … but either way, surely it\’s got to be \”good for poker\” when a pop song about a brash sexy-chick beatin\’ a gamblin\’ man at his own game inspires a generation young, impressionable lip-syncers to vocally embrace the concept of \”bluffin\’ with my muffin.\”
