How I Became A Millionaire

October 16th 2006 05:17
The following is true...except for some possible slight alterations for the sake of fitting the format and possibly because of my imperfect memory.


Gambled with a gift given by the site
I lost what they gave me three or four times
Treated each grand like it was less than dimes
Finally my fate began to look bright
Reaped the rewards of playing fairly tight
Trashing cards that were for the dogs like Iams
I caused my foes to be speechless like mimes
When they fell victim to my poker might

I would have had just fifty grand to spare
If I had lost in a tourney last week

But I went on an awesome winning streak
And now I seem to be a millionaire

But I’m not ready to buy a boat yet
It’s play chips on full tilt poker dot net



Poker is on ESPN and therefore I've categorized it as a sport.

well then computer games are also sports.

I don't agree though, sports needs actual physical activity that strains the body.

I suppose that it is more of a computer game than a sport, but I didn't see an Orble category for that. Maybe there should be one.

I would have put it in 'other'.

It's really a board game...

Poker is great. I suck at it horribly, but it's wonderful fun to watch. The thing is when I'm watching it on TV I know the hands and i know what beats what and if they're playing the hand slow or fast stuff like that...But, for the life of me I can never figure out the small and big blinds...and also everything is completely moot when it comes to playing. I freeze like no one's business and get taken everytime.
