Poker in a Western is a term used to describe a game of poker played in a setting that is reminiscent of the Wild West. The term is often used to refer to a game of poker that is played with spurs, which are four-letter metal pieces that are attached to the heel of a boot. Spurs are often used as a way to add an element of excitement to the game, as they can be used to make bets or to bluff opponents.
