The United States of Unconscious Gambling: I'm Over the Influence

Image
Free will or free won't- T exas Holdem Cowboy Card Junkies In the United States Of Unconscious gambling, poker without mon ey is an opinion; and opinions about poker are just shovels we use to dig our own graves: because if you are n ot playing poker but thin king about playing poker you are already dead. 24 Hour Casinos-I Don't Have Time For That "Get Rich Click" Everyone wants to go to heaven but nobod y wants to die. Poker Zombies who are playing 24/7 just do n’t like being here in the USA all the time.

I even have a supe...
