Last night, Yossi, Nik, Eric, Jonah, Rafi, Adrian and Gary played poker at Yossi's house. Yoss served up griddled sausages and chips. There were LOTS of crisps on hand. We sat at his enormous table.
We played lots of the four-card game, until the very end, when we played the two-card game, which enabled Gary to come from being quite down to being a little bit up. Yossi was the night's big loser, this time falling down the abyss rather than looking it fearlessly in the eye and overcoming it. Adrian was the big winner, but I think most people let him win out of sympathy for his imminent arse invasion.
I don't remember what we discussed during the game, which means it can't have been all that exciting. However, last night Nik was on scintillatingly amusing form. Who could forget the time he piped up, "I saw 'Rounders'"? Jonah and Rafi perked up like teenage pricks on the back seat of the bus and both asked, "Really?", as Nik knew they would. This enabled him to quip, "No", to general hilarity. Everyone seemed quite pleased with the practical joke involving his mate's mobile phone too. So well done Nik.
Ten shekels went missing at the end. Jonah was out of pocket. Quite a mystery.
We talked about where poker should be next week. Eric offered. It hasn't been at Eric's for quite some time, so maybe that's a good idea.
Scores were: nik 12.5; adrian 42.5; eric -12.5; rafi -6.5; jonah 21; yossi -51; gary 4.
