Title: Worried I've created a monster....
Post by: Rod Paradise on February 17, 2006, 11:04:08 PM
My Dad's been watching the poker on TV lately - so when I decided to play some STT's he came through to watch.... watched me win 2, lose 1 (5 handed, $3 or £5 on virgin0, then wanted a shot... lost but didn't do anything major wrong. so I had another go & won, so back to dad & he won his $3 game ($10.50)  :)up faither!!

We ended up in front of the computer for 3 1/2 hours & Dad's end result was 3 $3 + 30c games played, returns $10.50. Good fun, but my Mum's not pleased with me  :D.

The only saving grace is Dad's a bit of a technophobe - so he'd tell me what to do & I'd control of the mouse - so think we'll be playing more when I'm down, but he'll stay off it when I'm away  :D

He doesn't really support anybody... he looks out for Kilmarnock & Clyde (so he was happy the weekend of the Blonde bash) - because he played for them both.

He has occaissionally slipped and said we when talking about Celtic - so my brother and I are affecting him.  :D

He's in the middle row - right of the goalie in the light top. in front of him & to the right (ie far left front) is Jim McLean.

Good photo, did you follow in his footsteps or are you more suited to poker?

He wouldn't have to be that good a footballer for this to be false  :D

Just coz I said that, you're probably going to knock me out of the next tournament we play.

I'll deserve it
