5. New money?

Duuuude....when I'm next in the US, I'm at yours and I'm gonna drain your wallet dry.

Honestly, what do you Americans think us Brits do when we're at Uni? I'll tell you this, we sure as hell don't study Logic and Probability just for the grade.

10. I was going to say...

you must have one hell of a poker face to win with that hand.

[sniffa]

11. weLL to be fair

that pic was taken as we cashing in chips, and i finished deaLing out a deck of bLack jack. the stamps were used as tender by a pLayer who cLeaned out his waLLet trying to get back in BJ. it wasn't his night.

13. Bullshit.

Fun with a big group of people.

Con: The game takes forever.

[MichaelUK]

17. Blondie, as I really should have made clear by now

The best things take time. I mean, if it doens't last for a good hour, hour and a half (and we're talking minimum), then what's the point??

[BlondieK143]

22. That's true.

But the alcohol sometimes lengthens the affect.. err game. So I guess it just depends on your strategy and patience. :shrug:
