Play 3 Card Poker Instead of Jogging

Since I discovered that the fishermen on the pier play 3 card poker while waiting for the fish to bite, I have been going 'jogging' much more often than before. My wife thinks it is great that I am getting so much 'exercise', but little does she know. The fishermen began to play 3 card poker a few weeks ago to pass the time while fishing and I used to walk past and see them. Then I began watching and learning the basics of how to play 3 card poker...and then they invited me to join them. Well, that was a mistake. I became hooked. I love the game, I simply love to play 3 card poker


My exercise routine has not all gone totally out the window. I do get some exercise while I play 3 card poker. Mostly its when I run very fast to the pier in order to get there in time for the game, and that I do not miss out on any good hands. The other exercise I get is helping the fishermen with their fishing. Those who are too busy while they play 3 card poker to watch their fishing rods - I come to the rescue if its not my turn to play poker. All in all we spend a good couple of hours together on the pier - fresh air, good laughs and some exercise.
