Make Mine Mike

Poker follow-up:

The weekly game didn’t happen last night. Even if it had, I wouldn’t have been able to attend because I’ve been really sick. Before the game got canceled, though, the guys at work were giving me shit, saying I was chickening out, afraid I’d lose it all on the first hand again.

I explained that I was sitting out for their sake -- did they want me handling the deck and spreading my germs...?

“Yeah, right, Mike,” one of them said. “Last time you only touched two cards.”
