Great story, Jack! I know nothing about poker, but you made it easy to follow, and conjured up a whole other world for me. Loved it!

Ah thanks! It was fun to write. I wanted to make it accurate but also not read like an instruction manual. Maybe also heighten some drama. Glad you liked it!

Thanks so much Martine! I had fun writing it. The song came on when I was driving the other day and the idea for the story burst into my mind when I heard the lyrics. Glad you enjoyed it!

Great job Jack. I'm a hold'em guy from way back, more times than not, you either float or sink with that river card, haha. Enjoyed the story. - Jim

Thanks Jim! I enjoy a good hand of poker and I agree the river card is usually where the money is made or lost. Glad you enjoyed it.
