Relevance to theme – 2/3
Since this is more of a hobbie then a trade.
Composition – 3/3
What an excellent shot, perfect score here. Nice work!!!
Technical (Lighting ectâ€Â¦) – 2/2
Perfect lighting
Creativity – 1/2
The creativtiy of this shot is good, are you a texas holdem fan?

Overall I give this shot an 8. Since this is the best shot I have seen in this challenge, I hope to see it in the top 3. Great work and good luck!!!

Technically well done

This is something I didn't completely expect in this list of things, points for originality. The aces are very clear and crisp.... just like the fingernails. The background is blurred nicely and you can definetly still see the table in the background with ease. Colors are good, I like this image.

Nicely done. For some reason there's a few poker images in this one...and I'd been planning one for the next challenge, oh well!

I wish I were a professional gambler. Beats doing housework.

I love the simplicity in this photo. The light, color and use of DOF make this not only visually pleasing but story telling.

I saw a similar image in the 'sports' challenge. This one is better.

Great dof. Certainly two of the best tools a gambler could hold.

If I had to vote on this before yesterday I would have said, "So what's poker have to do with tools of a trade?" Then I saw and Aussie who just picked up 7 million in Vegas on Leno.

Anyway, great shot I like the contrast, and dof in this shot. Good job. 8
