Poker haiku

[the shadow]

Man, what's with all the haiku? With just a little looking, I found some great ones out there. Here're a few of my favs.

ChrisV:

Wind stirs the blossoms
With eight or less blinds preflop
Move allin or fold.

ColdestCall:

Two all-ins pre-flop.
Should I fold my rockets here?
I have no scrotum.

Many poker hands
have more than one way to play.
People need to chill.

With many cold calls
Top pair, top kicker no good.
Don't blow your stack here.

rory:

Late frost burns the bloom
Does a fool defend his blind
With unsuited trash?

Bob Ciaffone:

Bet Bet Bet Bet Bet
Better Than Slowplaying Hands
What an Easy Game!

If you flop the nuts
And it's checked around to you
You should bet it out

parttimepro:

Tree grows where seed lands
Playing Ace Seven offsuit
Root of all error.

irisheyes:

Ace and King offsuit
Few callers, but I won't limp
Less chance of suck out

young nut:

Fish at the table
Must relieve them of their cash
As quick as I'm able.

And thanks to google:

I see an orange
Lying on a poker table
Johnny Chan is here

Wow, mid connectors
Please, just give me a flop, please
[censored], maybe I bluff

Why did I call him
With middle pair, no kicker?
It was not a bluff.

Flopped a straight-flush draw
so many outs, but of course
a pair of twos wins

This hand will raise now.
There is no I who does this;
The cards themselves act

This post of shadow
I cannot see more clearly
As his best post ever.

Spring sun overhead
Shadows abound all around
Bask in the haiku.

El D would approve
With a poem of reknown
But not here, not now.

Aleo is back
To put us all at our ease,
Where is my spreadsheet?!

Who has never written one of these awkward thingies b4...

[GrekeHaus]

I call with pot odds
Brilliant in my opinion
four five offsuit wins!

Folding here is fine
Smarter, though, to bet all-in
Those blinds are juicy

Nice post... Heres mine about a cash game played a month or so ago.

I flop bottom set
All-in, uh oh, theres the nuts
can I river quads?

From a recent thread

Another Apathy Haiku:

Do not play for first
Or to finish in-the-money
listen: PROFIT BITCH!

I know my results are unsustainable
sample size too small

Limit grind wears thin
I search for greener pastures
