My wife Elif and I have been friends with the couple next door, Dave and Figen, for about 6 years. Dave and I are both Americans, and work for the same company, and our wives are both Turkish which is how our friendship started. We do the normal friendship things that couples do, that is go out drinking on Saturday, go on picnics when the weather is nice, an...
Becky woke up and rolled over to look at the clock. '2:30 a.m. - where's Jim? He should be done with his poker game by now.' Becky's live in boyfriend Jim played a weekly game of poker with his friends- usually at their apartment since they had a pretty nice poker table. Becky didn't mind his weekly gathering as she knew it meant a lot to him to be able to...
With the intent of introducing other people to our game, and hopes that they will share their stories for us to read, we decided to post the rules for our "Clothing Bank" rules for friendly poker. Read through the next paragraph with your friends (new or old) before deciding this 'story' isn't for you and don't give a face to other people's disappointment b...
This is a short one. Flash length. Yeah, I know I just did a poker-themed story. What can I say? They both came to me while I was playing online poker. Disclaimer: As you read this story, keep in mind that I try to include something for everyone, and some people are always looking for mistakes. So, if you find any errors, please remember that they are there...
Laureline came back from the fitness center. When she started, her friends told her that after a while fitness would be fun. That had never happened, but at least she had stopped actively disliking it, now it was just boring. Unfortunately it was a necessary evil with her lifestyle - the many hours in front of the computer, the long nights at the poker table...
"Oh, come on Mike. I promise I won't get in the way." Mike looked at his wife. They had just got out of bed and were dressing, preparing for another long day at work. "Look, Kate sweetheart, it's a poker night. That means no girls! Anyway, I though you usually went to a movie or something with your friend Ruth?" "Ruth's on vacation and I've nothing else t...
With nothing to do and being silly they decided to play strip poker. Her friends told her that they had played before and that it was fun. There were three girls and three boys so the mix was even. It was a different version of strip poker than she had heard of. Normally the loser removes and article of clothing, but here clothes were used like chips. If you...
I was playing poker online against a couple of friends. We were playing for real money, and were down to just me and Steve, as Jason had gone bust. We were teleconferencing so we could trash talk each other while we played, so when there was a knock at the door, I told them I'd just be a minute. I opened the door, and it was Rachel. She was wearing a baseba...
There are a few poker terms used throughout the story, and if you have no understanding of them, or experience with them, you can look on the net for an explanation of each one. There aren't that many; poker is not the primary purpose of the story. Regardless, you may want to check out the reference to Jennifer Tilly though..... Note -- there is reference t...
It started, innocently enough. My husband and a close friend had talked about doing a all day poker, March-madness get together. Having been married to him for nearly 10 years, I'd grown accustomed to the idea of college basketball and the back seat that I'd inevitably take in March.
