Tony looked at his new cards, a pair of sevens, a jack, a two, and an eight. Keeping the pair, he discarded the other three cards. The three cards he picked up were useless, and he hoped to himself that the pair would be enough.
"Okay, so what has everyone got?" Tony asked, putting his own cards down where everyone could see him. "Pair of sevens. Bev?"
Bev placed down a pair of Jacks, with a smile.
Denise put down three fours, and then Heath put down his pair of sixes.
"Damn..." Heath said as he unceremoniously kicked off his shoes and socks. "Thank god for shoes." he said with a grin, folloewed by an answering laugh from the other three.
"Alright, pass the cards here, honey." Denise said, taking them from Tony. Tony looked across to Bev, realising with a little shock, and a little excitement, she did not seem to care about Denise's flirting. Bev's eyes were too busy roving over Heath.
"Okay, here they come..." Denise said after a brief shuffle. |
