It is not uncommon for a man to want to have a night out with the boys, maybe play a little poker. It is also not uncommon to have the plans of men thwarted by their wives.

To help with this problem I am telling you the secrets about how to have some harmless fun at home without the wife catching on.


The best way to get rid of the wife so you can have a little “Man Time” is the easiest but most expensive way to do it. For her birthday you get her and one of her friends a trip to a weekend spa place.

Your wife will think you the best hubby ever and will never suspect you are going to throw a poker game in her absence, and the best part of this plan is that when it is over your wife will be so grateful for what you have done she may be more inclined to allow you to go out with the boys more often.

The next way is a little complicated and will only give you 4 or 5 hours of time at best, but it is much less expensive then a trip for 2. It may seem a little childish and yes I also have seen it on TV but a scavenger hunt scam can work.

The trick to the scavenger hunt is that each spot has to mean something. An example would be the first place you ever went on a date as one of the places she needs to go.

The end of the game is the most important make the last stop a restaurant and make sure to be there before she does. A good idea is to try to think of something meaning full in the area of where you live so you do not have far to drive, this will leave you the maximum amount of time to lay poker with your pals.

I have to admit this is not the ideal way to play poker, but getting away with even an hour of poker without her knowing is more excitement than any regular poker game could ever be.

Now that you have a plan to get her out of the house you need to be ready to go. The most important part of this is a large plastic drop cloth. This is so that if anything spills it will be simple to clean up.

Make sure you are ready to go with the table and chairs and make sure they get put back exactly the same as when you took them. You may want to use a digital camera to make sure you remember exactly how everything was before the game, because I promise you that you wife does.

If you send your wife on the trip I do not recommend using a cleaning service right before she comes back. If the house is too clean she will know something funny is going on

The last two tips I have is to make sure that you have a really nice gift around at all times just incase she finds out, and the other is that if your wife and your friends wives are friends do not invite those friends, if one guy gets caught you will all get caught.

Good Luck.

Seems overly complicated. I know what Id do if I had a wife, and a large plastic drop cloth. Problem solved

Man: "Honey, I'm going to have some friends over to play poker."
Wife: "OK."

Seems like you need to work on your pre-flop game. If she's going to object to you having a night out with the boys, time to fold before you get pot committed.

i'd think flying wife overseas to go against her wishes to be pretty ****ed up no thx.

also that's once a year. how is that in anyway helpful to solving the issue at bar?

This.

Man: Don't be so obvious when you softplay me OK?
Wife: OK, but don't you do it yourself!
Man: OK!

Easier said than done if kids are involved

Calm down old timer, nobody was going that deep. It really should be the same scenario, you just need to pick the right time. If your wife stops you from doing your hobby with friends you either have a gambling problem or a ***** wife

Sounds like you need a divorce

Damn it got cold in this thread.

My wife is cool, let's me have the guys over for poker all the time. I clean up the mess and thank her for being a great wife. Also she is soo hot.

+1 , why make this so complicated?

It should be more like

Him: "Honey, When do we want to have our next poker game?"
Her: "How about Saturday?"
Him: "Sounds good. I'll send the email"

My wife plays with me. Last game I shoved KJ on KJT flop, she said I was an idiot, called with AQ, and held.

Every significant other I've had in my life was aware that my poker game was sacred...and I was really firm about it, to the point where if they objected the relationship was over.

Finding a good, lifelong home game is hard...a new woman is easy!
