Question:
How many of you knew how to play poker before it became the new professional wrestling?
I much prefer Magic, which is the only card game I can percieve playing without taking my clothes off.
Originally posted by shavixmirI loved Magic. But all my friends who used to play got too "cool" and stopped. Bastards...

That's why I hate hold 'em. I live an hour from Atlantic City, so while I was in college I'd run down three or four times a week. My resume for that period is blank and I can say honestly that I "ate steak" in college. Then "Rounders" came out, then Chris Moneymaker parlayed forty bucks into two and a half million, and poker was ruined. Now, ...[text shortened]... in of attitude instead of skill. Trying to play more outside the casinos now. Bunch of idiots.

I play Rummy at $0.10 a point! Way more enjoyable.
Originally posted by darvlayRummy is a cool game also. If you ever saw High Roller, the movie with that kid form Soprano's, it the story of Stewie Unger, only three time World Series of Poker champion, he started out playing Rummy. Thats were he learned how to read players so well. Rummy is another game where you play the people also, not just the cards

Originally posted by darvlayI learned holdem after the first time I saw it on TV. Maybe a year before it became out of control big. The guy I play with has a hard time keeping players coming every week for some reason.
