Poker Strings


Recommended Posts

I hope you all don't rip me for this post but it's on my mind so here it goes.My girl and I have both been reading a book called the elegant universe, by Brian greene. The book deals with realitivity, quantum mechanics and string theory. All this is covered in laymens terms so people like me can get a general gist of Einsteins unified field theory.Anyhow, I was explaining some sequence of events about a paticular hand and was trying to relate it to the book I was reading, I know I'm a goof ball. I was having problems articulating what I was trying to say and she asked if this was what I was trying to say. "when playing cards there is no way the strings that run through the cards cannot be tweaked by intention and good spirits (not ghosts) thus enabling us to play our instruments (cards) harmoniously within this universe".I think this is probably one of those you had to read the book first things and I know it is "off topic" but I really believe there is more to state of mind than meets the eye. : :-) -)

This book would probably be great for all those "brain food" poker players, they'd like nothing better than to play their cards in harmony with the universe. Don't get me started on how my "instrument" gets played in harmony with the universe...
