When it comes to hosting a poker night, the playlist is essential for creating an exciting and memorable experience. There’s nothing quite like high stakes and the mystique of a casino environment. It’s no surprise, then, that so many people love hosting poker nights, or trying their hand at online games.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Playing games while listening to music, whether it\u2019s in-person poker or online casinos, like Paddy Power Games<\/a>, the right genre can really add to the atmosphere. Paddy Power\u2019s offering of online slots, jackpots, and classic games demonstrate that the demand for virtual gaming is only going to get bigger. So, with that in mind, we\u2019ve assembled a poker playlist for your listening pleasure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Poker Face by Lady Gaga<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the biggest pop singles<\/a> of all time, selling over 9.5 million sales in the year of its release back in 2009, Lady Gaga\u2019s Poker Face has all the makings of a gambling anthem. It was the second track from her debut studio album, and it comes from an era where Lady Gaga was still finding her feet in the music business. The song is also accompanied by a very memorable music video.<\/p>\n\n\n

Money, Money, Money by ABBA<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Taken from ABBA\u2019s album Arrival, the song Money, Money, Money, written by Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus, is about the struggle to get ahead despite working hard. While the track has nothing to do with gambling, it\u2019s a song that everybody knows can definitely serve as a fun backdrop while playing poker with Money, Money, Money on the mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You Know My Name by Chris Cornell<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Chris Cornell\u2019s You Know My Name opened the 2006 film Casino Royale. It\u2019s an intense, robust track that fits into the context of the movie, which is all about Bond\u2019s attempt to win a high-stakes poker<\/a> tournament. While it\u2019s not the most popular song, playing this track is an excellent way to re-create the tension that Bond felt when he was up against Le Chiffre to win the grand prize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deuces Are Wild by Aerosmith<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rock music seems like a natural fit for a night of high-octane gambling. Released as a single in 1984, Aerosmith\u2019s Deuces Are Wild can be found on the album Big Ones. It was a hugely successful track at the time, topping the US charts for four weeks running. An electric rock song that features hard-hitting lyrics, Deuces Are Wild is perfect for an epic night of poker.<\/p>\n\n\n

Music is a great way to add to the atmosphere and pass the time.\u00a0And when it comes to gambling nights, you\u2019re going to need upbeat sounds that keep you motivated. If you don’t have the time to build a playlist from scratch, you can copy\u00a0the most popular Poker and Casino-related songs on Spotify<\/a>\u00a0by Global Poker.\u00a0So, during your poker night, make sure you spin these tracks and\u00a0create a night to remember.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
