Surprise, Surprise

[Talking Poker]

I went a year and a half of regular online play without hitting a royal. I was at a home game, saying how I had never hit one, etc. The next day, I hit my first. three days later, another... meaning at the home game the next week, I had hit two since our Royal Flush conversation one week earlier.

Haven't hit once since.

Apparently PokerRoom is where you want to catch them though.

Sweet surprise indeed!

I just hit another RF.

Chipper, which site?

Oh, and noticed you had a hard time waking up Sunday .

[ChipFish]

Empire

And yes...
I was a tad sleepy Sunday morning.

And a word of advice:
Do NOT play Heidi heads-up with Peter as the dealer after 20+ beers

[PShabi]

20+ beers?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!??!?!?!??!?!!?!?!?!?!!!!


Pussy.

Shabi, if you are going to talk big, bring your ass up to Canada and drink some real beer.

I am in the prime of my life with respect to drinking, so anytime, anyplace, anyone is in Toronto, bring a tidy sum of money and loser pays the tab.

Edited to add: I am 6 foot, 160 lbs., so when you see me, you'll be like "This guy isn't serious". However, I am convinced I can drink more litres per body weight than anyone on this continent .

To translate for our American friends.
20+ Canadian beers = Approx. 83 American Tall cans.
