POKER RULES

POKER RULES

Roger A. Davis


What is your favorite game?
Hold’em, 7 Stud Hi/Lo or 5 Card Draw?
Maybe the famous Dr. Pepper, that is lame
10, 2, 4 wild cards should be outlawed

Texas Hold’em is on TV more than Lassie used to be
Online games for fun and real have an addictive appeal
Always a Mike The Mouth chatting the spill
Or a Moneymaker, Fossilman or Helmuth want-to-be

Poker rules enforced by software at cyber site
Where a million of fun money will buy you zero
A rookie can become WSOP Champ overnight
“Aussie, Aussie, Aussie” they cheered for their hero

Qualifiers hoping in the end to be at the final table
Shuffle Up and Deal, I think it’s better than sex appeal
Unabomber, Jesus, Babydoll and what is your label?
Amarillo Slim, The Professor, all bluff and steal

For most of us involved in a local or casino game
Some are stack shufflers or bluffers of fame
All of us expectantly waiting for our next hand
This is the fix of poker players, an all-in stand
