You do see the weirdest things typed into the ChatBox during Poker Tourneys.

If you see any oddball ones, Post them here please. I'm going to try & make notes of ones I see & Post them daily.

Here's tonight's offering, from a Tourney I played this evening.

This guy was sitting very deep, triple average I think. He said.....

"I'm not playing here again, I'm going back to (another Online CardRoom),  they have better River Cards there".

And he was serious.

    Do the river cards on the other site have a gold inlay or are they diamond encrusted?
    I think that SkyPoker should consider better river cards too.
    Personally, I'd like to see animated picture cards on the river.

    Awww what a shame for him. I know the anguish of seeing that river card come down and it's JUST A PLAIN OLD CARD like the rest of them. It realy should appear with fireworks or something, kind of like a Grand Finale to the board :)

    The initiation ceremony isn't a pleasant experience though if you want in on the club. May I suggest that in preparation you visit your local library and take as many books as you can relating to 'steam power through the ages' Also ensure you are wearing clean underwear at all times in case you get the call.

    I'd describe them as more cartoon-like than lifelike, but one imagines children would find them interesting.

    I work on trains and so have been expecting the call and promotion straight up to gold member level.

    Thanks for the tip about clean underwear, that will be a lot harder to find.

    Whilst waiting to join a lively cash table yesterday, I noticed a rather fruity exchange between two players that went thus:

    Player 1: I bet you're an internet geek. Do you even know what a girl is?

    Player 2: Lol! Yep. Had one on Monday!

    Player 1: Your sister doesn't count. 

    As you'd expect... It kicked off a little after that.

    Actually, whilst I'm wandering down Amnesia Avenue, to remember creative insults...

    Many years ago, some Sports TV bigwigs apparently tried to spice up the Cricket coverage. Their idea, was to place microphones around the pitch to pick up exchanges between players, and discussions about strategy. The plan backfired and all they picked up, was abuse.

    I forget the players' names, but one such exchange involved a new batsman about to take the crease, when a devious wicket-keeper attempted to put him off his stoke:

    Wicket-Keeper: “Oi, how come you're so fat?”

    Batsman: “Because your Mum gives me a biscuit every time I frot with her”.

    Please note: as this is a friendly (ish) forum, I have slightly amended the language so as to avoid offence.

    I think that one is apocryphal and has been attributed to several players.
    Shane Warne is generally quoted, though.

    The classic retort is from Winston Churchill to Lady Astor (I think - Tikay was there so he will know)

    Churchill was walking through the House of Lords after having a few too many drinks. Lady Astor stopped him and said ''Sir, you are drunk'' Quick as a flash Churchill replied ''Yes Madam and you are ugly, but tomorrow, I will be sober''
