TABLE OF CONTENTS
On Thanksgiving Day, when I was 9,
I saw sleet for the first time in my life; it
was a rare sighting for a native Texan.
Sitting around the dinner table at a
friend's house, with mashed potatoes
and turkey in my belly, I learned the
difference between a flush and a full
house and how to keep a straight face
during a bluff.
I don't know if my poker face would help me in front of a computer screen I've never tried — but the online poker fiends in Jayplay's feature know how to give their opponents a run for their money.
Check out the online poker story on page 8, and visit www.partypoker. com. Maybe I'll be there, exercising the poker stare I've perfected over the last 13 years.
