Tarzan Playing Poker
After several years of keeping peace in the jungle, Tarzan was tired and
needed a rest. He took his monkey companion, Cheetah, and they headed to Las Vegas for a
much-needed vacation. Soon he found himself in a Texas Hold'em poker tournament. After a
couple of hours of play Tarzan's chip stack was getting low and he knew he had to make
a move. Then came his opportunity. He looked down at his hole cards and saw pocket aces.
"All in," he announced and was called by one opponent.
They turned up their cards. His opponent showed a pair of jacks and was horrified to
see that Tarzan had him dominated with his aces. The flop came with three low cards, and no
straight or flush possibilities. The turn brought a similar card, but on the river, a third
jack was turned up.
"Looks like you're finished," Tarzan's opponent gloated as he raked in Tarzan's chips.
Tarzan grabbed Cheetah and sat him up on the table where his chip stack had been.
"Not yet," said Tarzan. "I've still got a chimp and a chair."
