I do not know the rules of your elaborate games! Do not wait for me.

And I left San Pedro last September, if that reference was for my time. Though I stayed in the same time zone...

San Pedro is just Bukowski GMT.

 

[hoochmonkey9]

gambling is evil.

 

[mjp]

San Pedro is just Bukowski GMT.

I should have known.

 

[Father Luke]

You didn't miss anything, I hear.

 

[hoochmonkey9]

it was fairly tame.
all the $ flowing to FL like an anemic tsunami.

 

[mjp]

I noticed that in the stats. ;)

 

[Gerard K H Love]

Who was the biggest loser? ;) -speaking of stats.

easy come easy go.

 

[roni]

come on guys! go ahead!

 

[Ponder]

Who's gonna deal the beautiful, fucking cards?

 

[hank solo]

Poker - shmoker. Just got taken down baAad. AK suited. Damn those crazy players. GRRRRRR.

 

[Father Luke]

Bad beat?
Do tell. . . do tell

What happened?

 

[hank solo]

One of those play super tight all day long type deals. Then you get a hand, make a sensible bet but get called by the donk who hits. Pah.

Come on Father Luke, tell us an upbeat victory yarn to boost morale.

 

[Ponder]

Next hand, please!

 

[Father Luke]

I think the best remedy is to follow Ponder's lead,
and play on.

 

[hank solo]

Yeah, that's what I did. Finished 1st next tourney, so still on the up.

 

[Father Luke]

Shuffle the cards, hank.
I believe we are all waiting. . .

 

[Gerard K H Love]

Hank? are you out there?
