Tattoos and Poker, not for everyone I suppose. They suit me and many others just fine.

I love my new RealDealPoker tattoo.

I have a new Real Deal Poker “logo” tattoo that I’d thought I’d share.  It’s only 4 days new.  It’s been about 4/5 years since my last tattoo and the first one I had done south of the elbow.  (I love it!) I’ve admired the logo since first seeing it years ago, my favorite color is blue and.. well, being a lover of the game of poker, it just fits me.  The fact that I believe in the Real Deal Company is just icing on the cake.
Hollywood stars play poker, rocks stars play poker , girls are playing more and more and everyday guys like me of course, play poker – Many of us enjoy tattoos,  Poker and Tattoos match up pretty nice.  Some love to look at them, others like to judge them and some – go tilt doing so.  (This is a great thing!)  We can use money earned from these tilt players for more tattoos.

Photographs of the Real Deal logo tattoo.

Here is the pic of my  RealDealPoker tattoo.  The shine is from Vitamin “E” oil.  This image is just after the tat was finished.  In about a week it will be totally healed.  It’s washed a good few times a day, 15 ari dry and then E oil applied.  We do this so that the tattoo heals best.  The colors will also hold up best with the vitamin E.

If anyone reading this article would like to see more pictures of the entire process of this poker tattoo being done, all can visit my FaceBook page.  It’s a pretty neat collection of images of the tattoo parlor and the steps taken from A-Z.

To me, tattoos are like my own personal totem pole. The tattoos I have are visual notes from some of the bigger and exciting parts of my life. Things I Love and or believe or both.  I’ve never put a tattoo on my body that I later turned out to hate. (Some do of course, but not me)  I take my time deciding and do it when it feels right. I love them all.  Many of my TATS had months or years of thought behind their design and placement.  It’s a thing I do totally for myself and that I totally without question enjoy.  I’m greedy with/about my tattoos. (lol)   If people enjoy my tattos  (and of course I hope they do)– It’s awesome. When and if certain people have issues with tattoos; That’s awesome too.  (98% of tattoo wearing people, I’d guess also do it for themselves and don’t care much at all what people that judge them think)  It still strikes me funny how some people will look away when seeing my tattoos – (I guess the biker gangs of the 1960’s really scared the hell out of some people) Just a guess.  Who knows why?  Change?  Being Different, Their strict upbringing? Who knows?  Live and let live I always say – It’s their right to like what they like too.
I’ve seen some pretty cool poker tattoos over the years and right about now (writing this article) I’m wishing I’d taken pictures of each and every one of them to share them with you.  Some a real pieces of art. (lol) A good few are trash. (It happens) Maybe now, that cell phone cameras are shooting better images, I’ll start shooting them from now on when I can.
Here is a post on my Real Deal Poker tattoo – If you have a poker tattoo and want to share it with the world. All are welcome to do so here.  Real Deal Poker Tattoo Article.  Give us a story behind it as well if you have the time.
If you are considering getting a tattoo (Poker or otherwise) put some serious thought  into it all .. You are kind of stuck with the results (lol) unless you go the route of serious cosmetic surgery $$$.   If you don’t have tattoos – please consider not judging the people having them.  (Don’t judge a book by it’s cover)  Many are really sweet and nice people who would hold a door for you or offer you a coat when you’re cold.  Many are great poker players as well.
Tattoo wearing poker players are just like you and everyone else at the table.  We are just a little more colorful is all.

Back to the Real Deal logo.

I’d never get a company logo tattoo unless I really loved the image and more importantly that I believed in the company.  I’m glad I ran into this design and I’m glad I found Real Deal Poker. I love them both.  If you care to read more about RealDeal Poker – (The first proven honest and real online game of poker ever) check it out here. Realdealpokerbonus.com
