Poker Night


Poker night got off to a slow start. Katharine and Fred popped on round. Praise the lord for Fred who basically had to coach the pair of us with the basics of poker. Top fella! Snacks were rapidly demolished as Kat and I became wrapped up in the game. Addictive to say the least. Karen and Spence were a touch late as their work / life balance is rubbish ;-).

Previn rocked up as well to make it a tidy little set up. Once the basics were ironed out we all got on it. Cash wasn't involved this time as the newbie was a little too strong.

Spencer started off aggressive and only got worse. Think some action is required to help him get that worked out... Hopefully the big fella's 40th birthday celebrations will prove fruitful. Either that or I'll shout him a hooker, and with his poker skills he'll be flat broke soon so I'll have to pay for it anyways...

Karen clearly has mad skillz and took us all to the cleaners. I did make a valiant attempt towards the end but to be honest she was just toying with me. Oo-er.

All in all a great night which will be repeated this Saturday. Money is on the table this time. $20 buy in with a no chip limit Texas Hold'em tournament planned.

Big Duncan, who was sorely missed, is back in the Dam with a few peeps from Berlin I think. Great to have him join us for the next poker session. Mainly to take his cash of course... ;-)

Game on people. Can't wait.

Have yourself a wonderful Queens day everyone.

"Mad skillz"? You write like a 10-year old, you n00b.
