hey one of these days my flush will hold up. i felt so bad for a young girl 23 years old sitting next to me. She lost 500 in the first 20 minutes. she did not have a clue, told her to go play 1-5 for a few years, where do these bumpkins come from? hartford in her case. i have been doing great down there and have booked quite a few nights at the Grand Pequot now thru the end of the summer. Good story A poker pro with a big mouth is bragging about his $350,000 home. He is playing 150/300 stud. I`m sitting at the table behind him when a guy across the table from him asks "is it payed for?" I could not resist,i say "it would be if he did not play poker" his reaction was a great tell.. and the table could not stop laughing. Even the best poker players at foxwoods , basically broke bums. They Hustle all year for 150 to 200 grand and they are willing to risk it all in an afternoon. I played a lot better after that. They cut themselves down to size.

The wife came home early and found her husband in their bedroom making love to a very attractive young woman. And was somewhat upset. "You are a disrespectful pig!" she cried. "How dare you do this to me - a faithful wife, the mother of your children! I'm leaving you. I want a divorce straight away!" And Paddy (for it was he) replied "Hang on just a minute luv, so at least I can tell you what happened." "Fine, go ahead", she sobbed, "but they'll be the last words you'll say to me!" And Paddy began - "Well, I was getting into the car to drive home and this young lady here asked me for a lift. She looked so down and out and defenseless that I took pity on her and let her into the car. I noticed that she was very thin, not well dressed and very dirty. She told me that she hadn't eaten for three days! So, in my compassion, I brought her home and warmed up the enchiladas I made for you last night, the ones you wouldn't eat because you're afraid you'll put on weight. The poor thing devoured them in moments." "Since she needed a good clean-up I suggested a shower and while she was doing that I noticed her clothes were dirty and full of holes so I threw them away." "Then, as she needed clothes, I gave her the designer jeans that you have had for a few years, but don't use because you say they are too tight. "I also gave her the underwear that was your anniversary present, which you don't use because I don't have good taste. "I found the sexy blouse my sister gave you for Christmas that you don't use just to annoy her and I also donated those boots you bought at the expensive boutique and don't use because someone at work has a pair exactly the same." Here Paddy took a quick breath and continued, "She was so grateful for my help and understanding that as I walked her to the door, she turned to me with tears in her eyes and said, "Please, sir, do you have anything else that your wife doesn't use?"
