Here's my game Mortimer, or should I call you, Morty.

First I'm a girl so people assume I dont know my right hand from left so I go with it.

Second, I always drink when playing so then my face is red for every hand not just the good ones!

Third in the beginning I'll play a crappy hand and lose on purpose (but not too many chips) so people think I'm clueless.

THEN.. I only play two face cards, pocket pairs or suited connectors. When I think someone has a better hand, I fold.. I dont need to chase pots to just to see the outcome.. dont get involved in the pissing match.

And I always go with my gut feeling.. dont second guess it. I'm lucky to have a good (well maybe a bit fat) gut.

When its down to 2-3 players left, if you get a face card, you play your hand (at least see the flop/turn). The first touney I won was with a King high.

Seriously ,Uncly, memorize this so you will be ready for me: (It shows lowest to highest card. In other words the card below beats the card above. It gives you the very rudiment of the game.)

2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
Jack
DiSpencer...I mean Queen
King
Ace






This may help,too:






penny


nickle


dime


quarter

half dollar

dollar


5 dollars


10 dollars


20 dollars


50 dollars

100 dollars




( In the above case the monetary unit below is higher than the one above....and yer so forth.)

OK?

Dahling....I can already tell it would be of absolutely no value to you if you did know your right hand from your left hand.







Kiss-Kiss....Hug-Hug.

if you aren't already getting laid by the beer fetcher, you're just a bad negotiator.
