“SINGING” Poker player


So today is a holiday here in the Philippines my friend invited us to hang out at his place and a little poker in the morning. My friend have it all by having rich parents to provide the goods. My plans was just stay at home watch TV and browse the internet, it was a perfect plan since I was on a losing streak in poker. I declined the offer to hang out, but my friends were persistent to get my money because I was losing 4 Saturdays in a row. Keep on calling and even go to my house, in the end I hang out with my buddies.
So it is poker time and my moral is down cause I have been losing a lot for the last four Saturdays not a single game on those 4 days have been given to me by the poker gods. Then it happened, my luck started to change when they started to feel my strategy change. I started singing songs out of the blue while playing poker from “poker face” by “lady gaga”, “candy shop” by “50 cents”, and so on. I sing whatever comes into my mind.
Singing out of the blue in a poker game is my new arsenal in playing poker adding some animated gestures. It adds more fun in the game especially when you sing a song over and over again that irritates you opponents or makes them laugh just pure fun. Carl one of my buddies suddenly folded when I sing poker face by Lady Gaga and doing the “you can’t see me” hand gesture of John Cena. I think that combination that bluff was pretty effective I might do that again. The Candy Shop was another to do again song especially when you’re already a big stack bully and you are mano-a-mano with a lady. It is one on one battle against Anna. I hold a non suited “King of clubs” and “Jack of spades” the flop and turn were “King of spades”,”7 of diamond”,”9 of hearts”, “Jack of Hearts”. So when the river was played a (“Queen of clubs”) I suddenly sang Candy shop looking at Anna. When you sang this dirty line by 50 cent:
“I’ll take you to the candy shop I’ll let you lick the lollipop Go ‘head girl, don’t you stop Keep going ’til you hit the spot woah!!!”
Now that is dirty and provoking line, instantly and without thinking Anna called “all in” and I called since I am a big stack bully and has good cards in my disposal. So her cards were “King of diamond” and “10 of diamond”, I win goodbye Anna and thank you for the chips. I keep singing that song in every end of the round which made her angrier at me as she watches the game progress. I was playing to win so it should be no hard feelings better avenge it next time. So in the end I won 2 games earning 800 Pesos and an angry woman. My poker slump was finished I am winning again.
