Re: Calling all poker players
Honestly, I don't think our hand selection was that poor.
Our pocket cards were the WMDs of Saddam and the 9-11 of Al Qaeda.
Unfortunately, the flop was Insurgents of Baghdad, Insurgents of Al Sadr, and the Debacle of Abu Ghraib.
Stupidly, we decided to chase down to the river, despite there being a possible Vietnam draw on the board. At best, we were drawing to a three-outer(WMDs) since a paired Al Qaeda probably would not be enough to win the hand.
We should have released on the flop, but our government remembered the bad beat it took last time it was in Iraq(not killing Saddam), so it stayed in the hand when it was obvious it was beat.
