The Lord versus the Devil!!!
I dont play draw poker much, so I'm not sure about bad beats and bad play, but surely by the lords standards, the omnipotent one himself, this has got to go down as bad play. Plus more evidence of people not understanding poker fully - its implied he is drawing for a gutshot straight when in fact its opened ended. Tut tut.
Well the railwayman he cut the cards
And he dealt them each a hand of five,
And for the Lord he was praying hard
Or that train he'd have to drive...
Well the Devil he had three aces and a king,
And the Lord, he was running for a straight,
He had the queen and the knave and nine and ten of spades,
All he needed was the eight...
And then the Lord he called for one more card,
But he drew the diamond eight,
And the Devil said to the son of God,
"I believe you've got it straight,
So deal me one for the time has come
To see who'll be the king of this place,
But as he spoke, from beneath his cloak,
He slipped another ace...
P.S I dont listen chris de burgh, my old man made me listen to it when i was in his car and i heard the lyrics.
