Kids playing poker

So - If you read my previous post you will know that my hubby, kids and I just got back from a cruise to Mexico. Well, while we were on the cruise, our oldest son, who is 16, got to hang out at this teen club, O2, onboard our Carnival funship Ecstacy.

Upon reading the activities sheet for that week, we saw that the club was doing a teen Texas Hold'em tournament and convinced our kiddo that he should play. Since he's been playing poker/blackjack for about 10 yrs (yes i taught him at the ripe ol' age of 5) he's getting pretty darn good.

Well, needless to say, as hubby and I were walking back to our cabin to get ready to dinner, the kiddo comes strolling down the hall, trophy in hand. He says, "Hey, I won the hold'em tourney." And in unison hubby and I say, "I'm not suprised." So now, big D (as i will refer to our oldest son from now on) has a lovely plastic trophy of our ship to treasure forever! And of course, he has now experienced that thrill of victory!
