Dad gum. Talk of the Devil.

Good to see you posting, my friend. You know you can just pick up wherever. You might actually be right some of the time.

Regards,

D-Ray

Hi Chas! Good to here from you again!

Although it sounds like you need to stay focused on other things for a while longer.

I'd have to make a list.

BTW, thank all of you!!!

For what's it's worth:

Sometimes you can't lose, sometimes you can't win. You can change up the game., go to lowball, one eyed jacks, whatever...might work? Try to buy a hand, even it it doesn't work everyone thinks you're full of shit.

The secret is to not bet too much until you've got some cards. I generally do my best sitting on a pat hand acting like I have nothing and letting the big boys do my betting for me. Then bump 'em on the last card. By then, they have so much invested that they'll stay.

Should have been an international banker...keep 'em in the game until they can't afford to quit.

Look around feller, we're all in the same boat. The only reason they don't clean us out is because they want us to go back to work and show up with some new chips for the next game.

Perhaps I'm a fool. Perhaps not.

But Ive been set up and lied to before.

Chas

BTW, there's 535 sumbitches out there that understand the game better than I do.

Posted that before you posted about your Mom, and watched the documentary you posted. (Is it okay to use the word "posted" three times in the same sentence?) I was just tryin' to figger out what was botherin' you. That's all. I try to steer clear of the IRS too. I've seen what they put people through. Not good.
