Dream Poker Game Part 1

Ah, Poker...

It's one of two things that every guy thinks he knows how to do.  The other, of course, is boxing...and perceived prowess in that is a topic for another sermon.

Poker, the safer and more accessible of the two, has become a ritual of sorts amongst dudes.  It's hard to say why, maybe it's because Poker's a relatively benign way to prove one's manhood to others, or just a proxy for much-maligned male bonding. 

But such deep, provocative questions really have no place on my blog, especially now that the school year's over.  So I propose a simpler question:  If you had the chance to invite anyone at all to your house/bar of choice/fictional playboy club for an all-night rock'em sock'em Texas Hold'em throwdown, who would it be and why?

For me, this is a toughie.  Do I go with people who would play the best game, the biggest celebs, the most powerful people....Or just a mish-mash or personalities that would lead to the biggest train wreck?

Decisions, decisions.

Call me crazy, but I pick option three....
