6 Beginners Luck

Who's the new guy?

Who's the new girl?

Brand new deck, brand new face

Walking in with nervous eyes

Looking for an empty chair

Someone asks, you've played before?

A little smile

Not really

The whole table grins

Perfect, sit right here

One player explains the blinds

Another explains the buttons

Three people explain different rules

Now everyone's confused

Relax, take a breath

Nobody was born knowing poker

Tonight, we're all teachers

Students and terrible actors

Trying not to bluff with our eyebrows

Here's to beginner's luck

Sometimes that's enough

No fancy strategy

No poker degree

Just a smile, a lucky card

And suddenly

You're stealing every pot

Lucky, lucky, lucky

Beginner's luck

One player calculates pot odds

Expected value

Table position

Combinate oryx

Another player says

I like the queen

She's pretty

And wins

The mathematician needs another coffee

Someone folds the best hand

Thinking they already lost

Someone calls

With absolute garbage

And somehow

The river performs another miracle

Everybody screams

No way!

Poker is funny

It rewards confidence

Punishes confidence

Rewards patience

Punishes patience

Makes geniuses look silly

Makes beginners look brilliant

At least

For one beautiful evening

First hand

Second hand

Third hand

Who's counting anymore?

Don't overthink

Trust your feelings

Maybe

Maybe

Maybe

Maybe
