Some Lessons Need To Be Unlearned
Once again, Our Guest, the Martian, dramatically overplayed his hands. As predicted, his run of improbably good cards returned to the mean but left him expecting big wins. He seemed off all night, misreading results and bleeding chips, quiet but nonetheless a good sport. The guest chute deployed successfully for every other player but one, the hosting Cyclops, who ground back from ten on—but not quite to even. So, while the host finished two down, Our Guest's 26 dollar loss financed the single digit wins of every other player at the table. The Dude, about to begin a six week absence from the game, finished first this week at seven up. Mitch Barnes and Choo-choo, both of whom played remarkably well, tied for second place after Choo-choo doubled her three dollar victory with a derelict win. The evening deck was so pleasant that even Speed "The Straight Man" was singing and nodding along to the country music mix. posted by Padre 2 days ago

Small Game. Good Game. Chute Deployed.
Left with just four regulars and a single guest as a parachute, Game 26 of 2026 was a good one. The single parachute deployed—accounting for all but a dollar of his competitors' profits, while the chute itself suffered surprisingly little damage. Mitch Barnes played very well and finished first at six up. Our Guest, though, rocketed to Mars with another night of great cards, only to give it all back—and more. He made the trophy irrelevant despite a dollar boost from the derelict pot. Still, no one playing finished more than six up or eight down on a night with plenty of play and a twangy guitar music mix. posted by Padre 9 days ago

A Table Full of Regulars: Eight is Great
Your Padre returned to host eight regulars on the deck, and the evening was very entertaining. Pots were big. Play was strong. The finish was close. Doctor Doom slipped ahead of Galactus with a two dollar derelict score that made the good doctor the night's big winner at six up. On the other end, Rocket, our Choo-choo, lost a derelict tie-breaker to Aquaman. She'll host Mr. T for the week. Not even a spectacularly bloody Red River hand could spoil the closeness of the finish. 2026 continues to be beautifully competitive. posted by Padre 16 days ago

Dude: "We jumped the shark!"
[Per the Dude:] It was a balmy night at the 19th hole and five made [it] to play the game we love. Rico made sure the trophy was present by throwing it on the back of his Harley and driving it to [Speed's]. Forgetting the name of Henway, the Doctor called it Cunningham creating a gameless name. The Dude suggested Cunningham is a variant of Henway, only four cards rolled up leaving the last card in each pile down and making it a declaration game. We tried it out and the results were surprising much like Henway. It was a tight night with lots of pots. The Dude prevailed the big winner at only five up, and the Mohican parachute deployed at only six down leaving the trophy in limbo for the week. The Mohican [Our Guest] also won the $1 derelict hand. Mitch took care of his wood before the night started so he was carefree and relaxed. Looking forward to having our absent regulars back next week! In case you were wondering, Swallows are native to Oregon and Sparrows are invasive.

Derelict [Our Guest]
Trophy [Not Applicable]

Two Chutes. One Splat.
Per Dude: There were two chutes deployed last night, but only one opened leaving carnage among the regulars! The big winner of the night was the Martian [Our Guest] with his first win ever! His two dollar derelict catapulted him over Speed for the top spot by a dollar. Speed was the only regular to finish in the positive. The good doctor finished even, which technically, is not a loss or a win. Our hero, the hose operator, graciously took home the trophy. posted by Padre 30 days ago
