As Summer ends, vacations wrap up, we get the kids back to school and football season starts, We all seem to find ourselves looking for a more ways to get in some poker.

Whether its a $1-$2 cash game or a WSOP Circuit event, the action keeps us all coming back in hopes of the heater of all heaters.

I though it would be nice to take a closer look at some of our local players. People that sit with us at a game once a month or so and some that we play with 4-5 times a week.

Now being conscious of peoples feeling and the obvious notion that some would like to remain anonymous I will use only first names, nicknames and last names that are popular like Miller and Smith(but you'll know how I'm referring to).

With all walks of life at these games it makes for a fun time for most and a great time when one of them gets angry. We all know the 1/2 dozen guys that are dipshits when they lose.


A few years back I attempted to find animated characters that looked like some of our fellow poker players. I'm ready to give this another try. Lets see how well I can match a cartoon with a poker player you may know.


Scott. This is how he looks with AA or when he cracks AA.







 
Jay. Explanation not needed.









Our pissed off dealer...PUSH THE DAMN CARDS IN SO I CAN REACH! I NEED MORE WHITE CHIPS! MY ASS IS SWEATY. WHY IS DAVE SO GOOD LOOKING!











Tough call here but based on their play I'd go with Max and Anthony. In either order.











Shortbus Stan says "sucksouts make me So Angry"












MC - The host - with no dates since mid 80's, sexuality must be questioned













Yours truly











Cal and Sammy always seem to going out to the car for something medicinal.



Now while some of you did not make it this time around I am always looking for my next subjects. So whether your a sub par lawyer, Car salesman or an IT guy keep in mind that my I'm always taking notes and working on my next blog entry.
