The Spiritualist

There was a young spiritualist from Avoca,
     Who was in a casino playing poker,
             He saw in the light
      That his cards looked just right,
   But unfortunately he ended up broker.

Very nice. I actually had to Google search Avoca to see where this place was. Love the humor, and thanks for sharing.
