Poker at Jona's






On Monday we played poker at Jona's. He made some chicken thing to eat (again). There were some crisps and drinks. Nothing out of the ordinary.


Jonah started the evening with seven consecutive full-houses, but even then he had the temerity to complain about the size of his winnings. Cheeky.


Nik lost all of his money before 11 and scarpered. Pretty poor show by Naughty. Not the kind of thing we encourage.


Adrian won money for the third time in a row. This can only mean that he will soon start losing badly again.


I thank Adrian for emailing me the schores on the doors:


Yossi -45
Ariel -32
Rafi -51
Adrian – a sensational and masterfully crafted +53
Gary – +39.5
Jonah – a – once again - very lucky +102
Big cry baby Nicolas -75


Jona +8

Poker at Rafi's



Last night we played poker at Rafi's place. Rather than tell you who was there, I'll tell you who wasn't there. Jona wasn't there. Now you know who was there.

Rafi made spag. bol., despite that being the same as last week's supper. It was tasty (apparently). There was good nosh and drink. Beer was offered, but only 25% of the IPKs took Rafi up on the offer of beer.

It was an event-filled evening of omaha hi-lo, except I don't think that Adrian invented any more fu(k ups. He also won money. Perhaps those two facts are related.

Some buffoon kept on raising another buffoon, thinking that his four twos would win the pot, and completely failing to see the possibility of the running flush. Another buffoon took half the pot with the nuts low. Bunch of buffoons.

And then there was the time that three Kings split the pot as all of them had the three and five that gave them the nuts high and low.

Yossi was back, which was nice.

Scores were:


Adrian 72.5
Eric -7.5
Gary 37
Nik -86.5
Rafi 79.5
Yossi-62.5
Jonah -50
Ariel 17.5

I'm still completely gutted by the way.
