Once again, I'm sitting here watching ESPN. And the World series of poker is on. I don't know a God Damn thing about playing cards other than black jack. I am slightly intrigued. At first, I thought this was a joke. Who wants to sit around watching people play cards?? I find myself just watching, dumb look on my face. Someone please help me.
I'm not quite there yet
Believe the Hype, Bitch!!!!

Texas Hold'em. Great card game.
It's always interesting watching other people lose money, as long it's not yours.

World series is great theater if you know anything about poker. NL texas hold 'em is a great game, and seeing people who really know what they are doing playing it is actually really interesting. the guy who won it turned a $40 entry into a satellite tournament into 2.5 million. not a bad weeks work.

This year's World Series of Poker was awesome. I don't really play poker, a lot of my friends do, in fact i've never even sat down at a casino and played, but for some reason i LOVE watching it. Check out Moneymaker's huge bluff at the final table, the annoucers were calling it the "bluff of the century" that's how good it was. Overall, it's really entertaining

I LOVE playing cards.
Nobody will ever play with me though.
That could be because I've shown everybody I know how well I can stack a deck.
But I always promise not to stack it.
