Two couples were playing poker one
evening. John accidentally dropped
some cards on the floor. When he bent
down under the table to pick them
up, he noticed Bill's wife Sue wasn't
wearing any underwear under her dress!
Shocked by this, John, upon trying
to sit back up again, hit his head
on the table and emerged red-faced.
Later, John went to the kitchen to
get some refreshments. Bill's wife
followed and asked, "Did you see
anything that you liked under there?"
Surprised by her boldness, John courageously
admitted that, well indeed
he did.
She said, "Well, you can have
it, but it will cost you $500."
After taking a minute or two to assess
the financial and moral costs of
this offer, John confirms that he is
interested.
She tells him that since her husband
Bill works Friday afternoons and
John doesn't, John should be at her
house around 2PM Friday afternoon.
When Friday rolled around, John showed
up at Bill's house at 2PM sharp
and after paying Sue the agreed sum
of $500 they went to the bedroom
and closed their transaction, as agreed.
John quickly dressed and left. As usual,
Bill came home from work at 6 p.m.
and upon entering the house, asked
his wife abruptly.
"Did John come by the house this
afternoon?"
With a lump in her throat Sue answered
"Why, yes, he did stop by for a
few minutes this afternoon."
Her heart nearly skipped a beat when
her husband curtly asked, "And did
he give you $500?"
In terror she assumed that somehow
he had found out and after mustering
her best poker face, replied, "Well,
yes, in fact he did give me $500!
Bill, with a satisfied look on his
face, surprised his wife by saying,
"Good, I was hoping he did. John
came by the office this morning and
borrowed $500 from me. He promised
me he'd stop by our house this
afternoon on his way home and pay me
back."
Now THAT, my friends, is a poker player!
