No. Unlike men who think or plan little beyond our immediate needs or wants. Women always think 13 steps ahead.
She's settng him up to keep him occupied so she can go be with his best friend. Or something like that. Any event. its a way to keep him busy and not noticing her so she can go do something or someone else.
Also this way she can also wait for him to be really engrossed in the game then come and ask him for some money. Rather then be bothered right now. He'll just hand over his wallet.
When she does legitimately wants him for something she knows all she has to do is appeal to his other brain
