Threads: Sore Winning Is Fun

 

I never played poker but always watched Darnell play. He was the world's WORST winner (on purpose).

I'd watch him sweep in a winning pot eyeballing the loser, saying:


"You, sir, are on a path to self-annihilation."

"Working for the weep-end?"


"Only now, when it's too late, do you realize your mistake."


And my favorite:

"That's OK. Love is for other people."


His distinguished air that made the words more cutting.


Now he says, "I'm tired, Harry. I want some comfort in my life. But how?"
 

 
A great trick he'd pull on the unsuspecting was, "What you got there? A club of spades?" Other players would get upset, call him an idiot, and all the time he was reading them like a book.
