Poker Article from today's Glabe and Mail

One other thing: I enjoy the detailed description of poker that they offer up.... "Poker is a card game in which players bet they hold the highest-ranking hand, at times by bluffing."

I should have mentioned that in my DVD. That, and just that. Over and over again.

I don't get it. I kind of thought that bluffing was something else.

I might have edited that out.
