ESP — it's a jellyroll

Now watching: SNL reruns

Well I am absolutely giddy. I got my cool new poker chips in the mail and all is well. I'm scheduled to hook up with trip and danny later and get some hold 'em action on. Woo. If only that basketball game wasn't there to slow me down. Oh well.

The title of this post is taken from Doyle Brunson's Super System, a book on poker written in the 70s and considered by many to be poker's bible. ANyway Brunson is a World Series of Poker champ, who practically helped invent the modern game. As he grew up in the steamy underbelly of Texas gambling, he has a particular vocabulary that amuses me. I'm now intent on working the term "jellyroll" into my every day usage.
