The Poker thread

[Nick Barlow]

It's a game, and I know Herr Flair likes to play it - anyone else?

I use the power of the Time Lords to confuse my opponents...well, my ID on many sites is 'CosmicHobo', and I even have a picture of the Mighty Trout as my avatar on PokerStars. Sadly, it's very rarely recognised.

[Rich Flair]

I play on Bet Fair and my ID is "RichFlair". Sometimes I'm fantastic and sometimes I'm awful. Came 1st out of 500 in a tourney the other week, yet at other times I barely last 5 minutes.

[Graymalkin]

I'm more than a bit rubbish at online poker. And even worse in real life!

[The Co=Ordinator]

I used to play a looooooooong time ago. I wasn't very good, which is why I stopped!

[Starfighter Pilot]

I've never played it online. A have a few times in with friends, where sometimes I'm lucky and sometimes I'm not!

[camino real]

I play online sometimes only at the very cheap tournaments or sit and go's. I win sometimes but I'm a very cautious player.

Best type of player to be, if you ask me.

Until you realise that you've got no money left because it's been eaten up by your blinds because you were so cautious that you never took a chance!

[Lucy McGough]

Then make sure you play with other people's money

[Patrick]

I'm more of a Blackjack, fan, myself.

[Dave Webb]

I like Poker and occasionally have runs of luck. Generally, though, I play really well for about half the night and then get bored and reckless at which point I get scalped.

It's fun, though.

[Zoltar]

I enjoy Poker. Haven't played in years though.

That's my problem - I'm nowhere near aggressive enough.

As my avatar alter-ego would say, 'They say "What about the meek?" I say "They've got a bloody cheek!"'

Besides, sod the meek. After all, what are they gonna do about it?

Yeah, what are we gonna do?! Uh, I mean, they... yes...

I feel compelled to quote now...

Mal: More than 70 earths spinnin' about the galaxy, and the meek have inherited not a one.

Just a quick gloat, and not bad for the first hand at a table (in spoilers to stop it taking up too much space):

Spoiler:

[Rich Flair]

Very Nice - I'll have to watch out for the Cosmic Hobo!

[Nick Barlow]

You definitely should, because apart from the occasional hand that like, I seem to be spewing cash everywhere at the moment...
