I might be on the Dr. Phil show for addiction to poker (no joke)

[theWhale]

Last year my wife saw a show about people obsesssed with hobbies (one guy just loved to detect metal 24/7). Anyway she wrote dr phil that I did the same thing, first it was a role playing game called Everquest, then I ditched that and became obsessed with chess, and then it became poker almost exactly one year ago.

Anyway the other day a producer for the show called my wife and asked for an update and wanted to see pictures of our family. YIKES!

Anyway, you might see some goofball trying to defend all us poker addicts some time soon. At least I make money off it and don't rob the savings accounts.

See if you can kick the doctor in the balls for all of us.

Does that mean EverQuest is a gateway drug?

I am surprised you still have a wife.

Actually, I am the same way and my wife has finally accepted that I must have a full-time hobby at all times that attracts 95% of my non-work attention. Right now alternating between gaming (PC games) and poker.

Looks like it's time to unplug the TV [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] But, seroiusly, if you are on it I'll watch it.

And DO kick the Dr. in the balls for all of us.

I second.

There are not enough Jerry Springer-like fights on that show. If you are going to be put on TV and lectured at by some bald idiot, you might as well make it fun and entertaining like using "[censored]" as every fourth word, insulting the audience or throwing a chair. Plus wear women's underwear in case your pants get torn off. Then say that it is a standard poker player thing to do.

And be sure to use poker lingo as innuendo --

Like talk about how your wife likes it when you go all in.

Or ask if Dr. phil likes Big Slick when UTG.

Or if he'd play with Granny Mae when on the button.
