Last night's game was at my place in Walsh Acres. There were no power outages or acts of God. There were no 911 calls. There was no choking, beating, or dismemberment of any kind. I thought we might break the streak when I pulled a shocking Royal on 5th on an all-in, but clearer heads prevailed. So really, I guess there's not much to report...just a nice, friendly game. What's good for the heart isn't necessarily good for the blog! I have heard a rumor about a Monday game in Broder's Annex, so we will just have to make it through the weekend...I'm sure we can fill our time with fishing, camping, BBQs, & football...it's only 4,827 minutes away! I am hosting my little buddy Liam's birthday this Wednesday...he wants a pirate party, & by God, that's what he shall have! Everyone will be in costume...I'm constructing a ship for the back yard, to be placed by the pool, so the diving board will be perfectly situated for "walking the plank" & I'm planning the greatest treasure hunt known to man...Liam loves poker almost as much as he loves pirates, so I will be playing with a bunch of 5 year olds (how do you say "send your child with with their piggy-bank and a couple extra hundred" on an invitation?) With my luck lately, it could turn out to be a very expensive afternoon. Have a great weekend! Up the Ante, JJ.

Poker for Pirates
Last night's game was at my place in Walsh Acres. There were no power outages or acts of God. There were no 911 calls. There was no choking, beating, or dismemberment of any kind.

ARRRRRRRRRRRRR!
PS..we will likely have an adult version later in the evening...you can't play unless you're in costume, so do it up right! We will add a little rum to the punch, & then it'll be game on! Bring your baubles & treasures so we can get some great photos of us & our piles of loot! No old bowling trophies, thank you very much! Cheers, jj.
