If he said "Lou Gehrig dying of Lou Gehrig's disease" I'd agree that it was out of place.

Kind of like Lou Gehring dying of Lou Gehrig's disease.

I'd say Duke was probably just being facetious, but I'm not sure how to spell it.

facetious is the shortest word in the English language with all five vowels appearing in alphabetical order. FYI, Sequoia is the shortest word with all 5 vowels (in any order).

Danny woulda known that, too.

So Danny has the nuts and he only calls? Was he hoping for overcalls or what? And Danny has the 3rd nuts closing the action faced with very minimal aggression and he merely calls as well - what's up with that?

And 'absconder' is the shortest word with the ABCDE in order.

They all had been playing all night. I've certainly seen stranger river action by fresh players.

I was lied to as a lad.

I was also told that "Facetiously" was the shortest word with all '6' vowels in alphabetical order. Or are you gonna make me eat my, um, words, again Mr. Rocketmandude?

You're probably right about facetioiusly being the shortest word using SIX vowels... but there exist words that use the SEVENTH vowel: W

cwm crwth
