If that happened, if I were shipwrecked on an island, I would like to have with me three passengers that would be cooperative, so that to organise our escape from that place, and till we succeed this we could play poker!

I would take 4 young girls that look good in a bikini because I wouldn't want to be looking at 4 old farts that look like me.

You are stranded on a desert island, washed ashore are crates with food, tools for survival and all your poker needs, which four members do you want stranded with you to play poker, survive and why?

Thanks to @billibooo for the topic idea!
Let me see if I understand this correctly. It is me and 4 other cardschat members stranded on an island, so which 4 members are with me. Hmm... I think the most logical to be stranded with me is my league team this season. We stick together! I guess that means I'm stranded with @whiskers77 @goaldriversv @t1tpfdc @Mortis and The Nutty Evil Squirrel's team will be practicing together for this league season!

Easy - Billiboo who made me feel at home right away when I joined. Ribbybruno as I just love his attitude and knowledge. My CC friend RiffRaff who has also supported me here at CC. And then I would spin the wheel for any one of our great moderators to join us - great work by all!

If I were stuck on an island, I’d pick Bear Grylls because he knows how to find food and build cool shelters. Then, I’d want Tabitha Brown because she’s super fun and makes yummy meals that would make everyone happy. Daniel Negreanu would come along because he’s really smart, excellent play poker, and would help us make good choices. Finally, I’d choose Jane Goodall because she’s an expert on animals and nature, and she’d keep us calm and safe while teaching us cool things about the world around us!

The list of poker players I would like to take: Daniel Negreanu, Ronaldo (Brazilian), Neymar and Den Bilzerian. This will be the most unique poker table you have ever seen.

So I would take Goggelheimer with me, who has become a very good friend for exchanging and talking about hands thanks to this community. As 2nd I would like to take rawbad with me so that he can tell me his thoughts on how he sometimes plays hands, as 3rd Dejange because it was my first captain in the league and as 4th Tammy because she can still teach me a lot and she knows a lot.

So for me, it would be a mix of male and female members, so that it is more interesting. ;)
To get a better relationship I would take @ms_attack, @Andyreas, and @Tammy and @Debi.

It is a real life person mix, no big celebrities.

I would invite Zuckerberg with his WhatsApp and Kamela Harris, the issues of food and return would be resolved instantly, both would benefit from a short vacation with a game of poker, which would help Kamela increase his chances of becoming president, and Mark increase his real estate by buying another island.

Since we have all we need for survival(billi said that on the island there is even a fully stocked abandoned bar...), it eliminates my CC 'enemies' that I would want to be miserable with on a desert island lol , this actually makes it a lot tougher as over the years I've met so many amazing people thanks to CardsChat(not only team members from different competitions and/or at the poker tables), that it's tough to pick just 4 members... but for fun I'll go with:

@billibooo , @john_entony , @lauestla , @Tammy - this way we'll have a great leader in the group and overall good poker players, full of energy that will make the life on the island manageable and better :)

1st Tammy - because somebody must organize our poker games and events and her experience to manage these things is great.

2nd Martin - because of his humor and life experience

3rd Sebbour because he is a really nice and helpful guy who I want to play with on table and he is also a team player.

4th AzdajaD - interesting woman&pokerplayer @my age and of course looks very good wearing a bikini 🤗.

First I would choose Tim Tebow. In poker, he would play an honest game and provide interesting and clean conversation. In survival he is strong and cares for others. Second, I would choose Alex Foxen. In poker, I could learn a lot from him. In survival, he is also strong and would do his fair share. Third I would take Carrie Underwood. She seems like she would be fun at the poker table and otherwise she could keep us entertained with music and beauty. Fourth I would take my real life friend CV. He's fun to play poker with and always down for a game. He also is willing to play dealers choice. In survival mode, he's knowledgable and likes to help others.

First of all lulu pk....although not active for a while, she is one of my best friends and I know she is very much able to survive on a desert island.
Also AzdajaD who I do not know very much of but I really got the feeling she's very tough and very much able to helping to survive too.
Then Zorba of which I know he's always good for a humorous good conversation and because of insomnia guarantees long poker sessions.
Last but not least Fletchdad for some musical entertainment and his smart conversation (well ofc they are all very smart).

I think this would make up for a nice poker adventure with musical entertainment, hunting and fishing and some good conversation.
As a bonus the ladies could be really of help improving my Serbian language :)

Well, this is very difficult...

I've been pondering the question while reading through all six pages of answers and am still no closer to deciding... :confused:

This is usually the point where "It'd be impossible to chose just four out of everyone" type sentiments would always be trotted out. While that might be true, it's also a vain effort to please everyone and offend no one- which is a fool's burden that is far too cumbersome to attempt to carry any further....

Sooooo, here goes (in no particular order)!

~ @jordanbillie - a very philosophical and interesting character who I'd enjoy conversing with and would have a thoughtful influence on us castaways.

~ @lyudiko - utterly sweet individual who not only is a pleasant person to chat with but could also probably do with some beach time away from it all in the sun.

~ @Shells - CC's kind-hearted and personable moderator who would probably be the most unlikely member to cave my skull in with a coconut.

~ @Nafor - Where's the enjoyment of rivering a straight flush if it isn't beating someone else's turned full-house? Have learned to avoid calling it a 'boat' on the island to circumvent four people simultaneously attempting to coconut-labotomize me... The Donald to my Gladstone. :giggle:


~Special Mentions~

Decided to remove our dearest darling Admins from the equation for various reasons (would have chosen all three immediately otherwise) but fortuitously in my storyline the reason we are stranded on the island in the first place is because a CC cruise ship meet-up went catastrophically wrong after PirateGlenn emptied his blunderbuss into the captain, comandeering the vessel and immediately steered us directly into a tropical iceberg... Thankfully as the five of us paddled our lifeboat to the desert island shore, we were overjoyed to see Debi, Tammy and Martin unpacking and organising the various supplies and mixing frozen margaritas under the shade of the lime tree (immediately adjacent to the hamilton beach blender bush [conveniently]). What a stroke of luck! 🍸:love:

~ @whiskers77 - one of my closest CC friends who has always been measured, kind and supportive towards me.

~ @Aballinamion - super cool and kind Brazillian dude who would be lots of fun and helpful in such a situation.

~ @Ron112355 - another one of my all-time CC favourites but would keep far too detailed records and statistics on the island games which eventually would render him unstoppable.

~ @fundiver199 - would choose this gent in an instant but fear he would insist on me studying instead of focusing on the frozen margaritas.

~ @alienat3d - a dear friend who has sadly been inactive for quite some time but always enjoyed his presence and vibe.

~ Marc, Suns of Beaches, Juan, Andryeas, Edison, najisami, billiboo, fletchdad, riffraff, jaymfc, luvepoker, Poker Orifice and many more would gradually swim ashore over the following days too...

The list is not exhaustive, I could and would go on...

See? This is why I just can't do these things... :LOL:

Too many to mention really, if you're reading this and I missed you out, don't think I don't love ya- I do! :giggle: 💙


- this average joe (or whatever his name is nowadays). As with previous one then also have some "unfinished business" with Tr4cid.
Guess this answers how my story ends... :ROFLMAO:

Of all CC members Risto is the last I'd expect to have chosen me as one of their four selections but it seems he has done so in order to bash me over the head with a coconut! :confused:
