Kenny Victorious in Plight.
After
some heavy legal wrangling, Kenny emerged victorious in his plight to keep
Aces wild in "low in hole" games. A game was played last night
with the "Free-Range" aces for the first time. Unfortunately
Kenny still miscalled his hand and subsequently lost. ( story

Lymons' $100 win puts a dent in vast poker deficit.
Repeated
strains of “buck-a-back-a-buck” rang though the proceedings like a Valkyrie,
as Lymie
laid waste to all he surveyed. Hand after hand, card by card, he
accumulated a mound of chippage that heretofore he could have only dreamed of.
The stunned combatants could only sit and watch as the Man
from Jackson, turned the tables on the doubting Thomases.
“Ha!”
he said, “Y’all thought I couldn’t play” Immediately
afterwards, Las Vegas odds makers shorted Lymie for the next game.
Edict,
refusing to capitulate to Lymies prowess, egged the cadre on until well past 1:00am.
I lost count of how many hands we played, but it was well over 40.
Hank’s
hosting was commodious, per usual. Vittles were provisioned by Dano & The
Bronx, from Mimi’s of Lexington Ave. Free flowing booze was in evidence
throughout the entire evening.
The
rank & file, feeling in fine voice, serenaded Edict and the entire
neighborhood to renditions of popular classics such as: “Happy Birthday Uncle
Fucker.” (Redcard
Reporting)
Recalls first meeting with Ben Franklin. The esteemed Edict Emeritus
will turn 50 this Friday. Friends will gather this evening to honor the
living fossil. The curious choice of locale: The restaurant CHURRASCARIA
PLATAFORMA where the scent of charred mammal is thick enough to
be cut with a knife, will have to suffice to honor the famed sesquigenarian
vegetarian braziliophile. Rumor has it EE will regale the crowd
with stories of his life and times as a foot soldier and part time piccolo
player in the Great Revolutionary war, the loss of his first wife at the
hands of the marauding huns of Greater Mongolia, and his first job as jr.
accountant with the Roman Empire. (story
