“(O)nline casinos can hardly be regarded as a good place to find a date. Not in the case of Danny Tackett and Marianne Graves, who got engaged as a result of playing against one another in a game of poker hosted by Poker World Online Casino. The two have set a date and they are scheduled to get married next month on November 17th.

After playing just one hand of Texas Hold´em, the two began corresponding in online chats, sharing their love for the game of online casino poker. In no time, the friendship turned into romance, leading Danny to ask Marianne for her hand in marriage. To Danny´s delight, Marianne said ‘yes´ and everything else is history. Throughout their courtship and engagement, the couple has continued to play poker at the online casino. Ironically, Danny´s screen name is Double D, while Marianne´s is Angel_4U. Since getting engaged, Marianne has decided to change her screen name to DDS_angel.”

We’re not sure what’s ironic about Danny’s screen name being “Double D,” but we don’t write the news, we just pass it along. And why is it that every time we try flirting with a woman at our online poker table it turns out to be a man in disguise? We can’t seemingly get anywhere with the players who use the sexy nurse icon at Full Tilt, and are on a months long losing streak trying to use Internet poker to get laid. Maybe it’s all the porn talking, but we thought all women on the Internet were supposed to be giving it up like it’s nobody’s business.
