On Vacation

Permanent Linkby Cricket_Fire on Thu Aug 03, 2006 10:37 am GMT

For the past 2 weeks I've been away on vacation (from Ontario, first we went to Maggyville, North Carolina, then Louisville, Kentucky, then Cave City, Kentucky). It was a 14 hour drive to NC, then we've been doing a whole lot of driving in between (probably another 14 hours driving through the mountains/highways). In this time I've read a bunch of poker books (Theory of Poker, Phsychology of Poker, Caro's Book of Tells, and skimmed through Proffessional Poker). I've got a few more books at home I've yet to read, so hopefully all this studying will pay off.

I'll be home from vacation in a couple days, so we'll see if it's helped my poker :p



P.S.
I bought 2 decks of antique cards from a general store in some hick town, the lady behind the desk said they're easily over 150 years old

Any chance of having the face cards/jokers scanned so we can see those cards? Think they would be intresting to see...

Not sure how to use a scanner, but I'll take some pics later tonight. I'll also take a couple pics of my basment. Had it redone into a cardroom haha (it was getting disgusting, so thought poker would be a cool theme, red & grey walls, w/ cards going down them)

Just throwing the link to the thread where you posted those images for others (click me). They're pretty sweet :)



Also, I sent an email to the manufacturer with those images, just to see if they can provide a little history of them, maybe get you the dates. Don't know if I'll get a responce or not, but maybe.

Reading and driving must be against the law? I think just reading may be against the law in Kentucky!



As for the cards... Ebay



Vyni if this is the link for the pics... http://www.thpblog.com/viewtopic.p%20hp?t=18909 ... It's broken.
You don't understand! I'm not an empty seat anymore. I'm different!
