We’ve all been on there on Christmas, eagerly waiting in anticipation to find out what your nearest and dearest have bought you this year. There is no better sight than seeing the face of someone you’ve got a gift for light up with joy as they rip off the wrapping paper and see what is in side.

Sometimes that isn’t the case.

Presents from the uncle you haven’t seen for 10 years or your Grandparents who aren’t really “down with the times” can sometimes come as a bit of a shock when revealed. But you can’t react badly in fear of upsetting or offending any of your family!

To help you this Christmas times, the masters of bluffing Ladbrokes Poker have put together a few faces to pull in case you get a gift you didn’t quite expect.

The ‘Felt Like It Would Be Good But It Isn’t’ Face

This tends to be the gift that is given to you with a look of enthusiasm, building your hopes up for something special. Your Aunt passes you a small box shaped gift, and if your head you are already thinking a piece of jewellery or a watch. But it turns out to be a travel sewing kit – changing your expression from optimism to despair.

The ‘This is Awesome, 15 Years Ago’ Face

Usually from a family member you haven’t see for a while, the out-dated present is a Christmas classic. The only album you wanted was the latest release from the Arctic Monkeys or AC/DC, but when you unwrap it you’ve been given a Blue or Hear’Say number, the groups you liked at the age of 10.

The ‘Too Intimate For An Audience’ Face

Secret Santa, the joker of the pack, or maybe the other half, sometimes under that wrapping paper is a present that should not be opened in front of your Gran. Imagine her face as you pull out the latest ‘relaxation device’ or naughty calendar. Whist the youth of today maybe find it hilarious the older generation may not take too kindly to it.
