"The most common mistake in history is underestimating your opponent; it happens at the poker table all the time."

If my camera was working I would post a picture of us playing with these cool new see/through invisible cards I found today. But it doesn't, so instead I will tell you a story from our first hand.
Raven is easily distracted at times can will sometimes take her time laying down her cards. This is somewhat understandable seeing that she is just learning to play and she likes to be careful as well. Duncan is waiting with undetectable impatience for her to show her cards and I sense that he is pretty sure he has the winning hand. He encourages her to show us by saying "what do you have in your hand Raven?
She looks at them again with moderate indifference (gently fuelling Duncan's optimism) and as she lays them down she says
"I only have three of a kind and a pair..."
Amidst my laughter Duncan throws in his cards, muttering something indistinguishable. I have to laugh, I can't help myself.
