Put on yer poker face, January 2012

[smo]

Target sent :shocked2: :redface: :shake:

I sent my target in. When Jethro grades it he will understand why I don't go to Vegas! :wink:

The "dealing" starts Wednesday evening. I'll "deal" out one card, face up, to each participant every night until Sunday. We'll see who has Lady Luck ridin' on their shoulder, and who loses their shirt.
Remember now, each player gets his cards from his own "deck". Two or more players can end up with the exact same card. And all the "decks" are stacked exactly the same. Where they get "cut" makes all the difference.

Durn, I goofed around and missed this contest too.

An ace, :grin: of spades, hot dog. I'll put in a hundred to get things started.
