Getting the picture
They say ‘a picture says a thousand words’. A bit of a cliché perhaps but it can sometimes make all the difference. ‘Never judge a book by its cover’ is another image-based saying. ‘Don’t count your chickens before they hatch’ is another but for our purposes totally unrelated.
Back to pictures though, and you may or may not have noticed that some players on PokerStars have what’s called an Avatar – a picture that representing them (as opposed the blank circle) at the tables.
It can be a picture of anything (well, nearly anything) that can say a thousand words about you. It might be the image of a favourite team’s crest, a family member, a pet dog, whatever you like. You could even make yourself seem harmless and fluffy at the table (a photo of poodle maybe) whilst secretly harbouring the intention to dominate the table like a terrier from the get go. It’s up to you.
So, want to add a personal touch to your poker account? For more details about loading up an avatar email PokerStars at support@pokerstars.net for details how.
