Barry K
Hi I'm Barry. I'm English, but I've since emigrated to Réunion Island where I now live. I enjoy a variety of activities mostly sport. I'm a Spurs fan of long standing. I always attempt to answer questions without looking at other peoples replies. That way you know you are getting my opinion on things. Hopefully you will find me sincere in my answers, although sometimes a silly question will invite a silly answer.

I was playing Texas Hold'em with three of my young nephews and neices last week. I was teaching them some of the rules. At aged 7, 7, and 5 you have to keep things simple. i shuffled and dealt the cards. I received K d Qd. I raised 3x big blind and the kids did the same (because Uncle Barry did), the flop came down. Ad 3c Jd. I checked and the kids did the same (because Uncle Barry did), the turn was 9s. I checked and the kids did the same (because Uncle Barry did) The river was .....10 d. I went all in and the kids did the same (because Uncle Barry did). I obviously won, and took all the chips. My 5 year old neice started crying, and the two nephews started arguing that I couldn't take the chips because they were theirs. Ho hum.
