[Pupsta]

Quite often when I'm having a bad day or something, my wife or friend will ask me how i'm doing and i'll be like "my day has been the nut low....good for razz, bad for me."

[superchuck]

i know im addicted because im constantly mucking things. i muck the bill at the end of dinner. i muck the menus that were served to us. i am allways taking innanimate objects, checking them (as if they were hole cards) then shaking my head and mucking. most recent object was a book that was sitting next to me. but i have also been known to take a hole shot of a pair of sunglasses then muck those. nothing is off limits for me to muck, it is all fair game.

A few signs you play too much poker or think about it too much:* When playing online alone in your living room, you wear sunglasses so no one can see your eyes.* When your wife/girlfriend brings you a beer during a football game, you give her a dollar.* Friends call and tell you to meet them at a club for drinks and such, and you tell them no, because you won't get your check until Monday and as such, you are shortstacked.* You make a particular move in a limit game and then remember, "Crap, Smash wouldn't have done that."* You're playing in a home game and the board shows a made straight and you yell, "Only on Stars!" to the bewilderment of your friends.* You try and ripple and stack your waffles in the morning at the breakfast table.

Yea, I know I'm addicted to poker when I use analogies with my fellow girl friends to describe how men are players in the dating scene - they either limp into the relationship, play aggressively, or they're all in (do I hear wedding bells?). And it's interesting to see how men play predate (or preflop). Dating is like playing a hand, as I explained to my girl friend Dean who is finally going on a date with our other friend, best friend of my brother, Rob. Anyways - the preflop has lasted 12 years! 12 years, that boy has had a crush on her slowly limping into the game. And we haven't even seen the preflop. He's had the greatest poker face about her feelings toward her. Anyways, he's making his move - very aggressive "raise" on the preflop. Incidentally, he requested a kiss to bring in the new year - and she folded! She's a limper, but wants to go all in. I think she's just afraid of losing the hand. After 12 years of being the object of one's affection - to lose! Poetic Justice. Well, we'll find out saturday! I have a double date set up (since she lives in NY and he's here in LA. I want to watch how the cards turn over. Dean's good at poker, everything but strip poker, but we won't go there. I just hope they play long enough to see the river card.Next update - Sun morning news for those interested.Hey, I'm a chic. There's too much testosterone in these forums!

[JistTheFist]

the only real saying we use like that is after a good burn on somebody. or after they have a good idea or doign somethign special I'll pull out the "well playyyed! wow... well playyed!"

I've found myself at Outback shuffling the coasters and dealing them out to the table...Honestly. Also, anytime someone in our group says something about anything (descriptive, I know) it's usually followed by, "I call"And, to make it all worse, I use icons

You know you are addicted to poker when during your political science lecture as a guest speaker you say "if the Democrats with back the senate and the presidency it they would have to be almost perfect, it would be like hitting a gutshot straight draw."(in front of 250 students)
