News

The Race
Sure, the driver matters. If the car sputters every time you hit the gas, though, you're likely to finish last no matter how skilled you are. If the cards were cars, the Mach 5 let Speed down this week. Every time it looked like he had a chance to catch up, he paid the price for accelerating, which meant a big loss and the loser's trophy. Speed's big brother, Racer X (your Padre), finished first with the Dude not far behind in his Batmobile; they played well but also had some very good cards. A three dollar nitro derelict surge gave the Intimidator a positive finish. The driver matters, but sometimes the race conditions are too much to overcome. Then, it's time to prepare for the next stop on the circuit.

Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness
With seven regulars, a surprise guest from the Padre's past, and a "Free Me!" soundtrack on the deck, the right of all regulars to party was exercised. Choo-choo took first at eight up, so the Train keeps coming. Second place was a three way tie, thanks in part to the host's three dollar derelict win. A last place tie left two players twelve down, but Speed avoided taking home Mr. T with a better hand than Our Guest. Freeeeee biiiiiiiiirrrrrrdd!

Sweet Summer Night
The weather, like the company, was a real pleasure. The lone guest played slowly but increasingly competently; he was the only loser on the night at eleven down. Our two newest regulars played well and, despite a night with plenty of large pots, they both avoided a loss and finished even. Speed's five dollar would-be first place finish was undone by a two dollar derelict pot giving his big brother (your Padre) Racer-X the checkered flag. Jelly donuts and train tunes? You bet.

ChaRTqUaKe!!!
The seismic chart event transpired as predicted. The only two winners were the Dude, who finished second on the night and had a net thirty dollar gain on the formerly second place host, and Choo Choo, who finished first this week with a twenty-one dollar win. Her well-earned victory lifts her at last into positive on the chart. The two dollar derelict pot covered the two dollars the Counselor would have finished down, and the trophy, contested by Doc and Speed, each fourteen down, went to the good doctor. The pots were often very large, and the hands too good to fold were painful. Weather: gorgeous. Pterodactyls: one sighting. Music: All Budos Band.

Dat Spaceman Varmint Stold My Money!
To summarize, if it's entertainment you're after, the provocations you're looking for are "stold" or even "stolded." More importantly, if the Ray Gun has good cards, you'd better have great ones. Galactus was back and hungry this week: he was the only double-digit winner. The Counselor was the only double-digit loser and left with the trophy. Everyone else, including Speed, who collected a two dollar derelict pot, finished up or down eight dollars or less. The game was, after the pterodactyls settled, another beautiful night on the deck, and the wins by Ray Gun and Mitch reshaped the championship chart, teasing our most competitive year yet.
