hello
I want to buy a t-shirt to my brother for christmas. He has played a lot of poker lately and got realy hooked (maybe too much!)
He has joined a pokerclub and I thought it would be cool if I got him a nice shirt
found a site on the internet called avaloon but I haven't got a clue about poker and poker terms.
Any suggestions on what to buy?
thanks in advance

Did you know that participating in a poker forum can help you improve your own game?

You can learn from other players feedback and from their experiences. Why the THP poker forums?

this smells like spam, first post and you are advertising.
edit: and most poker players wouldnt wear a shirt that has some stupid poker slogan or word on it "im all in guys, just like my shirt says"

ohh I'm sorry. I just searched for "poker forum" on the web and found this one. I haven't posted because I've never played poker so this is the only thing i really want to know.
Is there anything else that would be a great christmas gift. I know hes got chips.
again I'm sorry

What shirt to buy your bro? Depends on how much of an ass you want him to look like. 
On the off chance you're not a spammer, seriously, anyone who wears any kind of "poker gear" (other than tournament pros with endorsements - maybe) is going to be laughed at by everyone else at the table/party/bar/wherever.
A poker room quality 2 deck boxed set of cards by Kem, Copag or Dal Negro is a nice gift for a poker player in that price range. Google and you'll find a bunch of places to buy them.

agreed. If you want to buy a nice gift. Get a good set of Kem's.

The trouble with buying for poker players is that there isn’t much gift choice in the low price range. Which is probably why I have about a million decks of cards 
Has he got any chips yet? You can pick up a set of plastic ones for really cheap these days. They’re great for home games and he can always replace them with a clay set if he gets more serious later.

I never go out with my "The ladies love me QQQQ" hat and one of the following shirts:
"Im all-in" WPT
"I got the nuts" shirt
"NO LIMIT POKER" athletic department clone WPT shirt
"High roller" aeropostale shirt
and I always have to listen to the country song that goes something along the lines of "We are a pair, working on a full house"

There's probably all sorts of poker t-shirts scattered all over the web. For something cheap, I recently received a PStars t-shirt and hat (don't pay for these they're promotional items, they ought to pay people to wear them.)
Now if you want something that is really special, you can get your brother one of those shirts like the ones that Johnny Chan likes to wear, they're from Gianni Versace.
