4 Upgrades Ideal for a Modern Poker Room
If you host a poker game at your house, then you can make the experience enjoyable for everyone who comes over. Home upgrades can increase the comfort level and add a lot to the poker-playing experience. Make poker night go smoothly from the setup process to the cleanup process when the night ends. Turn a poker spot into a location you use and enjoy for years to come.
1. Lighting Upgrades
Visuals are important in a game of poker. You want to read other players’ faces, read your cards, and have a clear view of the bets on the table. Proper lighting in a poker room will make the game go smoothly and help prevent any mistakes. With your poker room design, consider various lighting options.
Smart lighting allows you to adjust the brightness of lights all around the room. Adjust the brightness as a whole or individually. For example, you could dim all of the extra lights in the room and keep just the lights over the poker table on and shining bright.
Also, consider LED strip lights on the inner edge of a poker table. The LED lights allow people to easily see what symbols and suits they have thanks to the extra brightness.
2. Audio Upgrades
Besides the sound of poker chips, add some extra sound with audio upgrades in the room. Built-in wall speakers can connect to streaming devices, phones, or electronics like a CD player. The spread-out speakers will provide you with music and audio options during a poker game.
A tech company can help connect the smart speaker system and allow you to change audio content without getting up from your poker seat. You could also mount a television and connect it to the same speaker system. Use the television to showcase live sports games or other content to enjoy while you play.
If a person goes out of a poker game, then they may want to relax and watch some TV while they wait for the round to finish.
3. Central Vacuum Systems
Snacks, food, and treats are often commonplace at a poker game. The snack eating and playing can often result in a mess, especially at a crowded table. No matter what type of flooring you have, easily clean up crumbs and debris with a central vacuum system.
A central vacuum system runs through vents built into the walls of your home. When you need to vacuum the poker room, you will simply plug a hose into the wall, turn on the vacuum, and suck everything up. Keeping a hose connection right in the poker room is an easier process than lugging a vacuum back and forth after each poker game.
4. Built-In Wall Safes
If you play poker for real money, then a built-in wall safe can add extra security to your poker games. A wall safe can hold and protect poker chips when they are not in use. You can keep money to use for change in the safe. If you play a tournament game, then place all the buy-in amounts right in the safe until the tournament ends.
A wall safe is an extra step in security, especially when the poker room is not in use. Prevent tampering of items inside the safe. A wall safe installation also stops someone from just lifting the safe and removing it from the premises.
