You are a poker addict when....
« on: October 20, 2008, 11:37:56 AM »
You are a poker addict when...

1. seated inside a restaurant, the waitress asked if would like to order now, you simply tap your finger twice on the table  (check!)
2. in the middle of a business transaction, the salesman offered you a good deal, you said "call!" instead of "ok"
3. you also find yourself "bluffing" in some things you do (not just on poker)
4. when you're taking a walk outside & see a computer shop, you think of going home early to play again
5. you're point-finger hurts for clicking the mouse too much
6. you are early to check your poker forum, to find the game password
7. you are a member of not just 1 poker forum but more than 5
8. instead of using the wordS increase/add more, you use "RAISE"
9. when you hear the word "fold", reminds you of poker right away
10. when you meet old friends, you ask them if they also play poker
11. in a class reunion, you manage to bring out a topic about poker
12. when you just won, you also tell it to your friends or family
13. you tend to forget eating meal when you're already in the middle of your tournament

Is there a twelve step program for this? I think the last step is the river.

"A Good Friend is someone who you can call to bail you out of jail. But a Best Friend is someone who is sitting right next to you in jail saying, "Damn that was fun, let's do it again!"

a cure? hmmm, i don't want to cure myself, i want some MORE!!

In fact, I thought of that list last night while I can't get a sleep. I think I'm having an "insomia" lately.  Need to visit a doctor for a tournament, oh I mean treatment!

DON'T TELL ME THAT!!!  I do allot of fishing in a near by river.  It is a world class river ( got celebrities traveling here to fish it ) and I do wade in it and have almost drown in it in 2002!  I do not want to repeat!

Joe are you saying babydoll is not a good house keeper.  Better hope she does not see that cartoon!  Good one made me smile! ;D

Your addicted to poker if you when you speed to get home to play in a freeroll!  Heard that one over the radio! ;D  Your addicted when you refer a money you get as change from a store clerk as chips.  Your addicted to poker when you are afraid to eat the chips you bought from above store clerk since it may bring you bad luck !

Your addicted to poker when you do not see below circle move when you move your head forward and backwards !
