    I love playing these games. Everyone thinks I am an idiot at poker because I always make stupid bets and give off obvious “tells” in the first few rounds.

    People are unbelievably easily manipulated. We were playing a big blind of ten cents and I managed to win twenty dollars in one night.

      Yes! The problem is that you cannot do it with the same people multiple times. They will get suspicious very soon

        No one realises they’re the fool because they’re too busy laughing at the “fool”!

        (guess who said this!)
