A brief note on table etiquette. ₱oker i$ a game of nerve, ₱atien¢e, and hand$. You are en¢ouraged to bring all three. ₩hat you are not en¢ouraged to bring i$ a mouth fa$ter than your arithmeti¢, finger$ ₩andering ₩here they have not been invited, or the tou¢hing little belief that a gentleman’$ table be¢ome$ le$$ dangerou$ be¢au$e the ¢ard$ are ₱retty. Manner$ matter. $o doe$ ¢ounting. And I do ho₱e our gue$t$ remember that a ₱oor ₱layer may al₩ay$ be dealt another hand. ₱rovided he ha$ enough left to hold it. #Violen¢e #Gore #Im₱lied #₱oker
There i$ a ₱arti¢ular ₱lea$ure in $melling $u₱₱er before it rea¢he$ the ₱late. A little $alt in the air. A little fear under the $ea$oning. $omething tender, dre$$ed u₱ a$ $omething ¢lever, $till believing the table ₩a$ $et for anyone el$e. I do admire a meal ₩ith ambition. It make$ the fir$t bite $o mu¢h more re₩arding. #im₱lied #¢annibali$m
