Just been watching episodes back-to-back. I'm starting to think in a Chicago accent. A true great that will not be forgotten 😉
Originally posted by shahenshahPeter Falk was also a very solid poker player. He liked to play 7 card stud out in Las Vegas when he was there. I had the pleasure of playing poker with him on a couple of occasions. He was very cordial and had a very keen wit. I remember one hand I played with him in particular. You know he had one glass eye, that is why it always looked as though he was cock-eyed. Well, in this hand I had a set of kings and he was representing a straight with his bet at the river. I was replaying the way the hand bet out in an attempt to figure out if he was bluffing or not. While I was thinking, I looked up at Falk who was staring straight at me. As I looked at him, he cracked his famous wry smile and says "It's a b*tch to read these eyes!!". Everyone at the table laughed. He was quite a character.
God bless him, he seemed like a warm person. His character Columbo is perhaps the only detective who did not use violence. Peter loved chess also.
