Poker, Poker!
The dealer bangs his fist
as he brings the table to order.
The fishes are there,
the sharks are there
as there are others!
The preliminary round
of betting begins,
and each player bets
or fold as he may
on the hole cards
that he is dealt.
The bets are admitted,
so are the calls,
and the dealer flops the cards…
the players may check,
call, bet, raise, or fold,
as they see the board.
The players argue, talk,
and wait for the turn
as they fill the pot,
and presenting their cards
they better bluff,
rather than not!
And when the river
card is turned
Its judgment time
and the pot shall
go to the nuts, or the bluff,
which the players decide.
But appeal you may not
as the dealer can’t help,
as the word is mum,
so bear with your loss,
unless there were cards
that he didn’t burn.
And that’s a hand
we play of poker
as we assume that
winning is the judge
and you’re playing
to win in a courtroom!
