MrG and I have signed up for a poker tournament tomorrow.
All day long we have been trash talking each other. I've never participated (except for his work Christmas party and that was for chips not money), and he has come in in the top five in all 10 that he's been in...twice coming in first. He thinks he's going to beat me. I think my womanly intuition is going to serve me well.


wish me, or MrG if that's your want, Luck! It all goes to the same place anyway if we win. :7

1. Heh, I watched an interview with one the world champion
poker players, - a woman. Her brother plays at a championship level too, but they both agree that she's the better player because, like most women, - she's a tad better at reading people's facial expressions and body language.

Have fun, sweetie! :pals:

2. Thanks! MrG is rather stoic and sober in his appearance, and I think
that is what helps him. I keep teasing him that he should try one of the World Poker Tour tournaments when they come to town. :)

Thanks! Basically, it's another night out. Second in as many weeks! I think we are on a roll. :loveya:

3. I love poker tournaments...
unfortunately, the ones at bars are usually speeded up versions, so they're not as accurate as the ones in casinos...i still love em though...i usually do pretty well.

5. We only noticed the speeded up part at the end. Most people don't
want to be up playing cards at 4 AM...I certainly don't. :hi:

13. Lay the smack down!
Talking trash is a great start and a vital strategy in the pre game psych-op. It's in the bag baby!
