3 of a Kind
I am long time lurker on the blue screen and moved over here with everyone else but rarely post. Sorry in advance, but I just needed somewhere to vent.
I type this with a heavy heart as my father-in-law died unexpectedly Tuesday night. Not only was he my father-in-law but he was the heart and soul of our home game. He would supply the table and location and I would supply the chips and cards. He loved playing poker and looked forward to hosting everyone at his house. He was always mad when he busted out but after a 15 minute breather he would come back in as happy as always. We loved playing with him and will miss him so much. In addition he was a great grandfather to my kids and I am not sure how we will fill that void. Still in shock frankly.
He had some great sayings that we always made fun of like: "You guys didn't beat me. The blinds beat me" He never liked losing and never liked putting his money in with a less than premium holding (or so we thought) so this was a funny one. He also thought that if a lot of Jacks or some other card were showing up on the board early than they were going to be hot that night and would play any hand with them in there. He was born in 1958 so he loved 5-8 suited.
RIP Robert Duane Dye - We will miss you.
