Poker Anyone?

    Two couples were playing poker one evening. John accidentally
    dropped some cards on the floor. When he bent down under the table to pick them up, he noticed Bill's wife Sue wasn't wearing any underwear under her
    dress!

    Shocked by this, John upon trying to sit back up again, hit his
    head on the table and emerged red-faced. Later, John went to the kitchen to get some refreshments. Bill's wife followed and asked, "Did you see anything that you liked under
    there?"

    Surprised by her boldness, John courageously admitted that, well
    indeed he did. She said, "Well, you can have it but it will cost you $500." After taking a minute or two to assess the financial and moral costs of this offer, John confirms that he is interested. She tells him that since her husband Bill works Friday afternoons and John doesn't, John should be at her house around 2 p.m. Friday afternoon.

    When Friday rolled around, John showed up at Bill's
    house at 2 p.m. sharp and after paying Sue the agreed sum of $500 they went to the bedroom and closed their transaction, as agreed. John quickly dressed and left. As usual, Bill came home from work at 6 p.m. and upon entering the house, asked his wife abruptly. "Did John come by the house this afternoon?"

    With a lump in her throat Sue answered "Why yes, he did stop by
    for a few minutes this afternoon." Her heart nearly skipped a beat when her husband curtly asked, "And did he give you $500?"

    In terror she assumed that somehow he had found out and after
    mustering her best poker face, replied, "Well, yes, in fact
    he did give me $500."

    Bill, with a satisfied look on his face, surprised his wife by
    saying, "Good, I was hoping he did. He came by the office this
    morning and borrowed $500 from me. He promised me he'd stop by our house this afternoon on his way home and pay me back."

    Now THAT, my friends, is a poker player!

    Six retired Irishmen were playing poker in O'Leary's apartment when Paddy Murphy loses $500 on a single hand, clutches his chest and drops dead at the table. Showing respect for their fallen brother, the other five continue playing standing up.

    Michael O'Conner looks around and asks, "Oh, me boys, someone got's to tell Paddy's wife. Who will it be?"

    They draw straws. Paul Gallagher picks the short one. They tell him to be discreet be gentle, don't make a bad situation any worse.

    "Discreet??? I'm the most discreet Irishmen you'll ever meet. Discretion is me middle name. Leave it to me."

    Gallagher goes over to Murphy's house and knocks on the door. Mrs. Murphy answers and asks what he wants. Gallagher declares: "Your husband just lost $500 and is afraid to come home."

    "Tell him to drop dead!", says Murphy's wife.

    "I'll go tell him," says Gallagher.
