I am a sap. My “friends” took me for $40 last night at poker. What’s worse is that i went “all in” because I was sitting on an ace-high flush. The pot was like $15 or something. My friend the famous opera singer Linnea Leonard, however, called me, and it turned out she had a straight flush!! How many times do opera singers come up with straight flushes?
My only consolation is that the three PhD’s at the table, combined, started the night with $80 and ended with $4.75.

Speak for yourself dude–I bowed out gracefully (a bit earlier than you) with $5.25 still to my name.
