    SBR POKER HAIKU... Describe your SBR experience....

    Of all poetic forms, haiku stands as one of the most elegant and immediate – a rare combination that creates an aura of mystery and artistry. This creative ambrosia, combined with an exotic history embedded in the courts and hillsides of Japan, has made haiku globally popular for the past century.
    With the challenge of precisely conveying a natural movement as a universal moment in three lines and 17 or fewer syllables, it is easy to see why Western poets like W.H. Auden, Jack Kerouac, Gary Snyder, Jorge Luis Borges, Billy Collins, Allen Ginsberg, e.e. cummings, Ezra Pound, Joanne Kyger, Anne Waldman, Richard Wright, and Sonia Sanchez fell in love with haiku.

    (Yeah, The Donk came up with the shit above.... not....)

    nevertheless, given the fun we had at Seeweed's expense coming up with "Seeweed Haiku" in another thread, I decided to start one in the SBR Poker Community, to enable all SBR poker players to express themselves and to sum up their SBR poker playing experiences in this unique form of 5-7-5 syllable poetry......

    My personal submission:

    Big hand dealt to Donk
    Ahead when the chips go in
    Runner Runner NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Donkey on my right.
    Shoves ace rag verse Waves Big Slick.
    P. O's stack in sight.

    Showdown, P. O's sick.
    True story, happened last night.
    Bye bye, went the dick.

    It has come to light.
    Waves chose to slow roll the prick.
    Suggest playing tight.

    P. O. wants a fight.
    I will entertain the hick.
    Hit with all my might.

    the lack of proper HAIKU FORMAT, 5-7-5 syllables, is becoming a bit annoying......

    STEP UR GAME UP.....

    An sbr classic re: the site's best cash game player:

    Must roll over points
    Soul is read by Biter fast
    No pizza tonight

    note the 5-7-5.....

    Donkey calls all in.
    Flush draw chase, his stack in sight.
    Another Waves win.
    True story, happened last night.

    In addition to my Haiku's following perfect 5-7-5 format, I bust out rhymes for your reading pleasure as well.
