Texas Ho-Ho-Holdem

When Santa played poker with Grinch He knew that if he gave an inch The vile Grinch-like mind Thinks one of a kind A card hand that wins in a pinch Though Santa was quick on his feet None of his elves were deadbeat cheats Grinch yelled, “Sakes alive I win with a five.” So Santa got up from his seat And said, “Grinchy, though you’re my friend, This card game has come to an end. Coz no five of hearts, Nor your lack of heart, Are prized hands, even in pretend.”
