jd, admiral, tw, and pg decided right off the bat that spike's claim about missing the game to be with his relatives was fishy. most people try to get away from their relatives. jd brought soy nuts and said he was going to eat local food. the admiral brought manna. tw brought the intention to learn Portuguese. pg brought a new deck of cards, which were shuffled by the admiral and then re-shuffled by tw at least seven times. the admiral mentioned that spike was a good preacher. pg tried to keep notes on the games but got confused. everybody folded in mexican poker. tw insisted that the pot be split in a tie of full houses during criss cross. the admiral and pg debated what spike's salary might be, $60K or $30K or less. bill moyer's tv special "buying the war" was analyzed, during which time pg lost track of the game. the players decided spike has lovely daughters. in one spectacular faux pas, pg dealt a game of mexico and then promptly conflated the rules of black mariah and mexico to think he couldn't lose, but he did. spike can't vote. jd dealt best flush and folded. someone noted that spike is bald. pg once again played mexico and thought he had a chance against the admiral, but didn't. tw explained the logic of it to deaf ears. pg dealt pineapple and forgot to burn a card so he burned two the next time. spike's wife won't let him eat bananas because they have too much testosterone. jd immediately gave up bananas, too. tw dropped a lot of chips on the floor. pg's watch, held together by a hot glue gun, broke. pg cleaned up on a round of omaha, saving him from once again being the night's top loser. everyone decided spike was probably the shortest. tw explained how his oranges came from israel, egypt, chile, uzbekistan and bangaladesh. jd volunteered to hold next week's game at his house, since pg has to be with his relatives supposedly. the anarchy round turned out to be a battle of the homosexual royalty. pg won, although jd appeared to be offended (although he may have been upset by losing). jd refused to take the booby prize, so tw and the admiral split it up. the fate of next week's booby prize is in the air. maybe spike should bring it.
