Poker on Christmas day?

#1 24th December 2007, 4:56 PM

Is it going to be a day off from poker to spend with your family? Or are you never going to give up the thing you love doing on a special day of the year? I'll probably end up playing tonight and into tomorrow morning, but the day at least I'll be spending with my family.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays

Well I think I can say I'm gonna have a hard time prying myself from the tables (drunk fish all day!!!) but I'll have to manage :/

Happy holidays

The only thing about poker on Xmas day is be careful of river chasers - you think they are bad the rest of the year - pah

The whole xmas period & early new year is fish central for the last couple of years.

Dont get mad - felt them

Mmm fish. I like a fish and chicken combo platter best. Is it just me? Oh come on, that's the best, it's better than chocolate. Mmm fish and chicken.

Well considering the time I will be getting up in the morning, I will have plenty of time to play poker!

Besides, I will be in the same room with my son while he is playing with his presents so we will be together!

no family so poker fills the time

#17 25th December 2007, 4:24 AM

Ms pig usually sleeps late enough that I can get my fill before she wakes up. Then it is family get-together with a herd of about 30 swine of all ages on this day.

#18 27th December 2007, 2:03 AM

Ahh, I wish I had played there were probably so many drunk idiots playing.

#19 27th December 2007, 3:04 AM

well i wish i woulda been able to play yesterday, but i didnt have free time like i thought i would, those down times where theres cooking going on and people are just sitting around socializing and watching the basketball game, eh i hook my laptop up in the family room so it would have worked, but really didnt have time, hope every1 took advantage of the drunk donks like u all planned.

What I wasn't warned about:

My own post Christmas dinner coma. Ooh but there will be New Year's parties soon. Starting tomorrow night(company parties). There's still hope.

I'm so optimistic about rolling my fair share of drunks this year .
