Default Re: What Are Your Early Poker Memories?

can i get cliff notes for chapter 1,

all junior high through highschool we had a group of 6-12 gamblers, we would play 9 hand bj high hands wins, and ties play again.

Jacks or better for 50-150 bucks sometimes when we were 16.

acey ducey, and handful of other games, then when we would play from 7pm till 1 go out to some cars and stealchange out and then go home and gamble that.

playing poker with my mom and dad was always good, my father was a mad man, played through college, and now i'm a degen, betting on football $20 bucks a game. and prop bets out the yang, betting on which side the elevator comes up, how late the boss comes in late.

And i love every minute of it, it's sad gambling took away the innocence of natural competition, but bowling is so much more fun when there is $100 in swings. ($1 games fyi, $1 beers), and football games that aren't my fav team (STEELERS) are more fun then ever breaking the spread.
