It's a well known fact that playing guitar heightens poker playing ability, and that all great poker players are also awesome guitar players.

Many people don't know this, but Doyle Brunson actually played several guitar solos on White Snake's first album.

It's well known in many circles that Mike Matasow is an accomplished jazz & Flamenco guitarist, and played "Djangology" at a festival in honor of Django Reinhardt.

It is reported that Gavin Smith wept during The Mouth's performance, and refused to play his own scheduled set after Mike was done, saying that "after Mike's performance, there were no more notes left to be played."

It should be a well known fact [if not, I'll invent it] that all good guitar players are tortured, lonely souls who spend way too much time sat at home, alone; strumming late into the night to keep their hands busy as they contemplate the vast emptiness of space.

Now what on earth could that have in common with playing online poker?

lol, the "pow" makes it much more effective IMO.

In fact I'm going to start doing that after I say random crap.

Hey, I'm going to grab some coffee POW
