All those late nights watching tournament Texas Hold 'em and a poker kit from my girlfriend's Uncle Mushy Peas have paid off. Leopold the Strangely Pale and I were invited by our upper ranks and his neighbours to play poker, with a $7 dollar buy in. We got towering piles of chips in return which looked like endless lakes of wealth when we got a good pot going.
The Dark Side sadly let a good straight flush 'go' so that our project benefactor won the pot, the big lick. I was much less merciful, and bullied most of the other players out of their cash, or was just downright lucky.
I was a gracious winner and failed even once to crack a smug grin until we got home, and I threw my winnings on the bed and rolled around on them, well, it. It was a $20 bill.
