Cheers to POKER

Got my first hands on Poker today. Bob was really excited on teaching me and Meghneel how to play Poker. He spent a good hour on the basic rules and some tricks and tips. Every Wednesday in my company is the POKER day, and the sooner the better. Bob wanted us to join in. Just pay 5 bucks. The first three get some money out of the pool. Pretty neat huh.
So nine of us start playing. The first to go was Dan. Then Lingzhi. And the list went on. Surprisingly the newbies (me and Meghneel) were amongst the last four left. So we all were one step away from the BUBBLE. Unfortuantely for Meghneel it was 'near but yet so far'. Me, Thomas and Nick are the only ones on the table now. But then Thomas was already in a bad state with too little chips. We just threw him away. So it was now upto me and Nick. I think Nick played smart and bullied me a lot. My ignorance and frustration ended up in my loss and Nick won. Damnnn. But it was a good first day at poker. Well, how much did I make of it. LOL...13 dollars and 50 cents. Not a whole lot huh. But then it wasn't about the money. It was fun. I the loves the pokers (in javed jafferi style from salaam namaste). Cheers to Poker.
