    in honour of the OP, I have taken the liberty of FYP


    Enough of your monkey business.....

    A guy at the 300 event reraised me (or 3 bet me if yer a chimp) and I asked him if he had a big pair....He told me I will have to pay
    to find out, I folded and threw him over 50 cents...then he turned over AA and said, how dya like them Bananas, I laughed a lot.........previous night in the SE NL cash game, some crazy Indian player kept raising the pot with rubbish saying, 300 bananas etc whilst raising. into a 100 pot...he paid off very well, felt a bit guilty though as his play was being applauded by all to make him reload...didn't rest too well with me tbh. as it was like stealing.....he hit bigtime though agianst some of the regulars.....for some reason I enjoyed this.

    I think this chimping is catching on though.


    When I go bust from a tourny now the tune., 'YES we have no bananas' fills me brains......


    sht none of this rhymes...

    forthe lad who won the dream package
    was the centre of such moral attackage
    the indignant moralisers typed and bleated
    one lone gunman aimed and bam! unseated
    the moral high ground the immaculate brave had rapidly taken
    i prefer the foothills where we can be naive and mistaken.

    for the gamblor who is getting worser
    did he get better or is he still cursed.

    TPTK and CRAI by a RETARD
    FYP hope he sucked out that river card.

    for new posters who need help with their strategy
    but fear sarcasm and ridicule by analogy
    a newbie safe zone has just been set up
    where theory and hands can be discussed
    this place makes good sense to me
    its what this poisonous ****ing boards ought to be

    eminem eh

    actually sounds good in rap thanks!!


  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I dunno why, just when I read it I noticed it was written in rap format. Nice mix of iambic pentameter and some off beat trochaic stuff. Just made me smile.

    When Gary found out he would lose it
    He manned up, and just faced the music,
    He neither cried nor gave out,
    or even let out a shout,
    just rued the day he did press submit!

    Hollament's humour to some, might be edgy,
    taken, like a hamburger would to a veggie
    then He slagged Rooney dives hand history
    for what reason, to dan, is a mystery
    but,at least he's not British like Reggie!

    I won't be at the ol desk for the rest of the day so here are the results.


    Ive changed my mind 3 times on this...... thanks for the entertainment folks.

    the winners are

    1 DVD fan : 50 dollar from me

    joint 2nd.
    2 Eagle eye and KAyroo : 30 dollar each from Doc

    3 others not even mentioned could easily have won but I went with the poem that was the nearest to the OP request...plus it was very good. ....... William Money nearly came in and stole it at the end.....with a cool unintentional rap.


    So DVD fan, please PM me your stars user id and I'll send over the 50 dollar...
    the poems
    DVD fan

    With gambing blood in my veins,
    I tried my hand at holdem,
    This led me to the poker forum,
    Where i realised i couldnt fold them.

    Then i read alot and asked advice,
    And i posted till my fingers bled,
    I slowly began to improve alot,
    As i lolled out loud at the Cardshark Thread.

    Then came some patchy times,
    when BCB and Llyod got nippy,
    And if you thought that was bad,
    then see the thread: Golly vs Trippie.

    So i built myself a bankroll,
    And i took the advice on board,
    And i move through the levels,
    As the celtic tiger roared.

    Then the americans done Afganistan,
    And soon after hit Iraq,
    But Flushdraw folded a set of 2's
    To the lol's and Quack Quack Quack.

    After some ups and downs i realised,
    That in poker i could make a living,
    Some months on, all i can say,
    Is who the fcuk was i kidding.

    The worlds a cruel place i say,
    When we think about young Brandi,
    Everyones a hypocryte now,
    But at the time it was fine and dandy.

    So 100k in one hundered days,
    caught the forums imagination,
    But the rumours are that Finding Nemo,
    Has since gone into administration.

    And with the celtic tiger slain,
    And the $$$ crashing fast,
    And the good old tribeca days,
    Are now long in the past.

    Then the Rag2rar controversy,
    Do they realise what theyve done,
    Were all or none responsible?
    Certainly nobody will feel theyve won!

    So were here today still smiling,
    Cant change the past nor peoples ways,
    for all the troubles boards has brought,
    Its given back more funny days.

    KAYROO
    War of the Words
    I walk through my day as a person,
    I study or play cards or work,
    I then sit before my computer,
    My very own internet jerk.

    A warrior armed with a keyboard
    I slay cyber creeps by the tonne.
    I comment on threads with no purpose,
    I annoy Big City Banker for fun.

    Then, lo! Up ahead I see danger,
    A thread which divides us all round.
    Where some will cry "Havoc!" and let slip;
    Dogs of the moral high ground.

    So battle it rages around me.
    I fear that I shall not survive.
    Resigned to my fate to return
    To the players that play only live.

    The Mods, they struggle to bind us
    As slurs slip forth from our hands.
    But blood has been spilt on the keyboards
    Lines have been drawn in the sand.

    Then the smoke clears and all seems so quiet.
    Carpel tunnel the only outcome.
    But next comes the dread and the fear,
    Next comes recrimination.

    Fingers are pointed though needless.
    Statements are made off the bat.
    Friendships are tested to breaking
    Things now we may soon regret.

    So now that we stand disunited
    What is this forum to do?
    Move on and ignore all our tensions?
    Or start posting on two plus two?

    Tomorrow's a day where redemption
    May sit hand in hand with our hopes.
    I know now the battle is over,
    This forum is able to cope.

    So let us all stand now and promise,
    As we never have yet done before.
    That the next time a battle here rages,
    We all shall just pick on Devore.


    Eagle eye

    Too much has happened to put it all here
    We had good beats and bad ones and stories of beer
    We'll start off with yuletired who started this thread
    He played well in the irish open before going card dead

    Then theres El Stuntman whose quite sharp with a pen
    He loves mojo and poker and a steak now and then
    Then theres Rag2gar who climbed the worlds biggest hill
    only to get knocked backed down by some jealous pill(ock)

    The tv saw a few boardsies make apprearances about poker
    Hectorjelly on Prime Time was a tad mediocre
    And bigcitybanker, who analysed the days action
    he came across very well and was a welcome distraction

    from that eejid of a commentator, i don't know his name
    but his commentary came across as terribly lame
    and then there was smurph on the tv table
    showing us all that her game was not just a fable

    r4ad started a thread which was going down well
    until hectorjelly decided to put him through hell
    They argued back and forth, like warlords they battled
    At times it appeared that one of them was rattled

    But it went on much longer than we did expect
    Until somehow they decided not to be so direct
    And stopped the war of touranments versus cash
    I don't how it stopped, maybe they chilled out on hash

    On then to LuckyLloyd who's always in trouble
    He declared paddy power was nothing but rubble
    and declared that their tournament he would not make
    but reports have suggested that he did partake

    From what i remember julian thew was in heaven
    when he called Lloyd's allin who revealed 9 7
    the cards were dealt and his kj did hold
    as Lloyd hit the rail without any gold

    To Vegas goes Connie after winning one of the sats
    on stars i believe, and to him its congrats
    nicnicnic has been quiet so far this year
    but before its over there'll be something to hear

    I could go on about more but I've enough
    of trying to rhyme up this boardsies stuff
    So for now good luck I hope it goes well
    for everyone but the rat who will end up in hell

    Just so they are all in the one place
