Part -1

    George, the dealer, handed out the cards. James and Richard made the small and big blind bets, respectively. Pre-flop betting began.
    "Raise" said Michael, putting in a nickel.
    "Call." said George.
    "Call." said James.
    "Raise." said Richard, as he bet a dime.
    The flop was a king of diamonds, a 7 of clubs, and a queen of hearts.
    "I have no idea what is going on." said Mary, as she watched the footage from the drone.
    "Just keep watching." replied Ben.
    "Check." said James.
    "Check." said Richard.
    "Bet." said Michael, putting in three cents.
    "Call."
    "Call."
    "Raise." said Richard, putting in two dimes.
    The turn was an ace of hearts.
    "Check."
    George looked at his cards. A 10 of clubs and an 8 of spades. I could still get lucky with the river... but is it worth twenty cents? Probably not.
    "Fold." said George.
    "I still have no idea what's happening." said Mary.
    "Call." said Richard.
    "Call."
    "Call." said Michael.
    The river was a 2 of clubs.
    James looked at his cards. A 6 of diamonds and a 2 of diamonds. No more cards are coming, and I've got the second worst possible hand in the bag. Oh, snap.
    "Fold." said James.
    "Raise." said Richard, betting a quarter.
    Michael looked at his cards. Two aces. Darn it, a pair of ones! What good is that? Especially against Richard, the master poker player! I don't stand a chance!
    Not knowing he could make a three-of-a-kind out of aces using the community cards, and also unaware that aces were better than a king, he said "Fold."
    Ben burst into laughter. "HAHAHAHAHAHAhahahaha...HAHAHAHAHAhahahaha..."
    "What's so funny?" inquired Mary.
    Ben just couldn't control himself. "HAHAhaha...HAHAhahaha..."
    "Are you okay?"
    "hahaha...HAhahaha...hahaha...haha...haa...I'm done."
    "Took you long enough. Now please explain why you laughed so hard you cried."
    "I could, but we'd be here for awhile."
    "Never mind, then."
