Good story; well written, and right result.

The following is at least (and maybe only) the latter.

I recently organised our annual/occasional private cash game.  We're mainly recreational players, and some are very green.  Everyone's moaning I've invited this professional: "It's going to be too serious; he's too good, we're too outclassed".  Frankly, I've been moaning about it myself, although not to them, just to the professional.  Doesn't bother him a bit, just as long as I wear my poker watch and he can win it.

Anyway, he turns up and gets roasted.  He's the Christmas turkey and everyone wants a slice! Most get a slice, some get two, and the professional gets stuffed.  We play so bad, he can't win...

Moral of the story: don't try to outsmart much better players or much worse players.  Is that not correct Mr C?  Indeed, a lesson I've been too long in learning myself.

Anyway, I only wish my DTD war stories were as amusing.  Well, to poker players they might be, but the wounds are too deep.
