Any other players out there?
My pals 'Marvellous' Marvin Kayne, Greg 'The Truth' Lambert, Sir Archie Leach and I often meet up for a game, and I'm usually only too happy to part them from their not so hard-earned lolly.
I can read 'em like a book y'see, and not a particularly gripping one.
Kayne is your steroetypical 'granny' player. An absolute tightwad, no chance of bluffing from him - if he's going all the way - beware. I once saw him chuck a Full House away, and there was only 60p in the pot.
Lambert's a Show Pony. He has no idea what cards he's playing - he's usually too drunk to even look at 'em, yet he'll still go on raising hapharzardly. You can't fathom this type of player: they don't even know their own strategy. All you can hope is that once they break even, they've got their coats on and are off - usually about midnight in Lambert's case, just when we're nicely softening him up, curse him.
Sir Archie is a very dangerous player. He once cleaned me out with five aces - and since that day, I've refused to use girly wildcards. There's no sense filling his glass in the hope of rendering him ratarsed. He'll be the last man standing in a drinking contest. Did you know he can sink a pint in less than 4 seconds? The man has no throat.
You can't beat a bit of poker. You can beat a woman and poke her, if she's so minded - but Texas Hold 'Em is the card game of kings.
What kind of player are you?

I don't play for tokens, my lad, but for your American dollar.
I'd have the shirt off your back too, but being a Yank - it's probably eight sizes too large.

It's all about the booze and cigars for me. The winnings is of secondary importance.
... I'm not sure whether I'll like what you do with poker-rules...
Yeah, poker rules alright...
Yep, I play, with my dad and his friends, and I've actually come out positive a few times. They go easy on me, though.
