The first thing that comes to mind is playing him a game of strip poker. I'm sure he would really like that.
I'm not sure what your budget is, but Card Player runs special cruises so many times a year for poker players. The next one is the caribbean, so that might be a nice trip for you too. Check out their site at http://www.cardplayercruises.com/.
I have found lots of really cool poker stuff on ebay. I just bought a deck of cards that were owned by an ex vice president from their recently. I have also found lots of other cool poker stuff there like old west pics of poker players and antique poker chips and old west style cards.
Amazon.com has lots of poker t-shirts, poker tables, fold out poker tables, poker books, poker videos, poker glasses.
He might get a kick out of getting Greg Raymer's lizard type glasses. Search for them on e-bay. They make great poker eye glasses.
I'm not sure how big he his on reading, but if he doesn't own "The Theory of Poker" by David Sklansky then make sure he gets a copy. It might really help his play if he hasn't ever read it.
You could open him up an online poker account if he doesn't have any. He might enjoy that. Paradise Poker is one of the more classier places. Also Party Poker or Poker Stars would also be great choices.
A great educational DVD for poker is "The 2004 World Poker Players Conference". I have watched many poker DVD's. This is one of the few where you can actually get some pretty cool information and advice.
You could also get him a poker magazine subscription. That's the sort of gift that will keep on giving for a while. Those are the kind I like to give. Card Player runs probably the best poker magazine. They have been around longer than all the other major poker magazines in publication today.
I hoped this has helped in some way. I'm confident that you will find something that your husband will really like very much. Happy Anniversary to you both.

Does he have a poker table? Or how about some poker shot glasses?
P.S. I admire that you are very supportive of your husband's hobby. My boyfriend is addicted and it is very annoying. LOL

i have seen some really nice gifts at the mall, that is Poker themed. look for something he doesn't already have, or can replace what he does, or buy him a whole set of items and put it in a gift basket. he will be so happy and appreciative that you are so thoughtful of his hobbies.
