Finish the limerick

I was feelin’ silly and thought this could be fun.

Here are a few limericks for y’all. And to keep it interesting, you folks add the final line. Here’s an example…

 I shoved all my chips in, pre-flop,
 and ignored all the folks who said, "STOP!"
 Between the turn and the river
 I started to quiver  
 "Hey! He took all my chips, call a cop!"
  1. In a tourney, I sat at the table
    and wondered if I was able
    to win more than I lose
    and to still own my shoes… (your turn to finish the poem)

  2. “Ante up!” cried the dealer, at first.
    Then she dealt out the flop in a burst.
    I had hoped to see Aces
    but there in their places… (yep, your turn again)

  3. I studied and practiced and played
    and was awfully sure I had paid
    all my dues to get good
    but I sat there like wood… (your turn)

Have fun, y’all.

I guess this isn’t exactly what you are asking for, but thought it was a good place to put it anyway. It didn’t originate with me, just picked it up from a customer who used to recite it at the poker table on occasion.

I lost my first wife over poker and my second left cuz of blackjack.
I go thru women like a train on a fast track.

Some men sing and some men dance. I’ve always loved a game of chance.

I’ll play any game that you can name, on any day you want to play, for any amount that you can count.
I have played for silver, gold, diamonds and jewels. It’s called gambling. the sport of fools.

But now barefoot, I know “rigged” is no fable.

Ante up!" cried the dealer, at first.

Were some rags that were proof I was cursed.

I studied and practiced and played

As each hand of the donkey’s was made.

Double’n my efforts, I was amazed
I’d bet into the hand, only to be raised.
Blind after blind, hope’n for a hand
My chipstack stuck, like its in sand.
All this leaving me, tired and dazed.

Day after day, we come back and play
only to to end up in that 'ole “shove & pray”.
Why do we do it, over and over ?
Cause we all, have a :four_leaf_clover:
So you tell me, what do you have to say ?

A Replay player who’s named Sarah
is more fun than Hanna-Barbera
but when she sits at the felt
and all the hands have been dealt
she shows so much skill it will scare ya

“Ante up!” cried the dealer, at first.

ace duey offsuit, please get me a nurse

There sits a Guru, with the power of the Sun
You want to be at his table, its loads of fun.
He’ll confuse and confound you
and even buy the drinks too.
When u sober up, you realize he Won.
