“he’s dealing off the bottom of the deck!” “you calling me a cheater, what the heck? you better be quick with your gun, or in a minute you’ll be done.” “my mistake, it’s not worth risking my neck!”

I would think so. I have never played cards, so I don't know anything about it except what I have seen on TV, and it reads like a real cheater that is playing that game. Thanks for dropping by and commenting on my poem of the day. Sara K

I have never played Poker nor many card games... used to play a little at college for fun.. you have created a unique scene here, I wonder what inspired this one...

I was checking the T.V. for some old programs to record. I happened upon a western. Poker game in a saloon, the gunslinger was cheating, but no one wanted to die by calling him on it. LOL Every once in a while, I try a Limerick. I used to be very funny, and it was easy, but now I'm a bit more mature and they are more of a challenge for me. Thanks for the comment, my friend. Bill

This is such a fun read and so well written with creative rhymes, setting a scene that is worth reading about , as some situations can often lead to fun outcomes, although it can be also scary to Be in such situations. I love the deck and heck rhyme the most, clever, pleasure reading this.
