To Poker or not to Poker

Greetings from your resident blackjack dealer in Las Vegas, Nevada. I’m here to share some of the funniest poker quips with you folks right here in the 777 humor section. Break out the brandy, pop the champagne or pour the cranberry juice because poker my dear friends, is where it’s at.

I’ve often wondered how much poker gaming fun one can have. Well, as a blackjack dealer I’m a little out of my comfort zone, although I’m pretty competent at 7-card stud, Razz and Omaha. So the other day when my shift ended I mosey on over to the Texas Hold’em tables. Charlie is dealing like a champion and the players are ready to roll. Nothing like a great joke to get everybody going and Charlie is like jackpot gold in the humor department.

Warning: this is a poker guffaw of note so be advised

This 8 year-old kid comes home from his buddy’s house and walks in on his parents making love. “Hey pappy! What’cha doing to mama?”  The father looks up with sweat on his brow, “Playing poker Billy. Go on - run along now!” Satisfied, the kid runs up to see his sister Sally. He finds her door ajar and pokes his nose through. “Hey sis, what’cha doing in bed there?” he calls out. Sally is totally flustered as she too is making love to her boyfriend. “Get the heck outta here Lil’ Billy - I’m playing poker is what I’m doing!” Satisfied little Billy walks on over to his brother Eddy’s room. He finds Eddy playing with hisself on the bed. “Eddy what game you playin?” he asks. “I’m playing poker Billy!” exclaims Eddy. “…but I thought it takes at least 2 folks to play poker,” replies Billy. “Not if you have a good hand. Besides I’m pretty good at the 5-knuckle shuffle!” retorts Eddy.

Before I head out, I’d like to leave you guys with one more quality poker joke. They were flying left, right and center in the casino that night that I simply have to share them with you. It’s Saturday afternoon at the local park and two dog owners are going on about how smart their dogs are. “Well I had me a Great Dane. He was by far the smartest card-playing hound dog I ever seen. He was as skilled a poker pro as you could hope to find. Sadly I had to put him to sleep.” The other dog owner looks at him quizzically, “But why Sal? A dog like that is worth its weight in gold. Surely you could have made a mint off him!” Sal’s head dips slightly, “I had no choice. I caught him using marked cards.”
