catch up



So did you hear? I won a poker tournament on Thursday night. I might just pick up a new habit. I won a shirt that gives the "Top Ten Reasons I Drew You Out."

10. I'm drunk. (One Pale Ale did it for me.)
9. I misread my hand.
8. The voices in my head told me to.
7. The poker gods love me.
6. I was donating to your cause, but the dealer screwed it up.
5. I'm psychic. (It's true!)
4. In a past life I was a donkey. (Okay, also true ... )
3. I was feelin' lucky. (Always!)
2. I wanted to give you one more bad beat story.
1. They were suited! (Indeed they were, the four and five of spades did it for me.)

Why not one of the pictures of you?!? I got the winning moment (maybe a little blurry, which should match you memory...sports cliche coming..."It was such a rush, everything is really just a blur right now!)

11. Your intoxicated friend can't double down for you in poker.
