Ahhh, poker…...

So, last night finally got around to using the poker set I had purch-aced (hehe). After teaching the few others I would be playing against to play the game, apart from gadsby who appears to have a reasonably good knowledge of the game, we commenced!

Danni, probably the least experienced of us, was the first out (sorry chuck) but we'll put that one down to inexperience! And also maybe the fact Joey "the most over confident so confident shes obviously not bluffing or is she never mind I've won the pot poker player" Seager was helping her!

Jake stayed in there for a while, with his sunglasses, hat and scarf to preserve not only his poker face but his whole poker appearance. Unfortunately mine and Gadsbys skill saw through his sunglasses to his eyes, the route to any mans soul! He was next out.

Then it was me and Gadsby, and after a few hands got bored of the one-on-one due to the lack of money involved so Gadsby conceded as I had more chips by quite a long way.

All in all a good night, would have better if there was money involved!

Oh well, time for a curry and a pint in Leam, if i ever finish my maths work!!!!

Ok, just to put you scum supporters straight…...

Follow-up to I hate Man United SCUM!!!! from never judge a blog by its name.....

There have been some strange comments on my last entry about the Man Utd vs Arsenal game, someone even suggesting that Man Utd were a more successful team than Liverpool. Just to put them straight, here are the FACTS…..

League Champions
Liverpool – 18 times
Manchester United – 15 times

Second Division Champions
Liverpool – 4 times
Manchester United – 2 times

FA Cup Winners
Liverpool – 6 times
Manchester United – 10 times

League Cup Winners
Liverpool – 6 times
Manchester United – 1 time

Charity Shield Winners
Liverpool – 14 times
Manchester United – 11 times

European Cup Winners
Liverpool – 4 times
Manchester United – 3 times

UEFA Cup Winners
Liverpool – 3 times
Manchester United – Never won it

European Super Cup Winners
Liverpool – 2 times
Manchester United – 1 time

So sorry guys, the only competition you've won more times than us is the FA cup, and total honours is 57 – 43 in our favour, so even if you have been the better side in recent years, you've got a long way to go to catch us up.

Don't even bother posting any more comments about this, I'm writing on this blog to record my time at university, not to prove that Man Utd arent as all conquering as their fans (who don't seem to know anything about football) make out.
