Winchester. Responds to Winston, Winnie, Win, Chester, Chessie.

Or rename a child to Smith, and call the dog Wesson.

Or get another dog and name one Smith and the other Wesson.

Actually, don't do that. I'm going to do that with my hunting dog and lapdog.

Damn, I wanted to say that.

Continuing with the theme, there's:
Springfield
Savage
Mossberg
Browning
Mauser

Names like Armalite and SIG Sauer are too complicated for a young dog to learn.

The best gun dog I ever owned was a Gordon Setter named Parker. Gun dogs named after guns just somehow seems fine to me. Notwithstanding pope's recent nomination.

I'm really quite sad that nobody got my Archer reference... or that everyone who got it thought it wasn't funny.

I was obviously thinking in a lower tier.

How about a blast from the past?
Schofield
Buntline
Bisley

Or, since I live close to Tombstone, Wyatt.

Preflop, 20-40.

After an EP raise, action gets to a man who has been slurping coronas and talking about his taco truck business.

"Sixteen tacos!" the man cries. He moves two stacks of four chips out, reaches back and pushes a third stack out, again saying "sixteen tacos!"

EP calls out a string raise.

And this is when we learned that "sixteen tacos" does not qualify as verbal declaration of a raise in Renton, WA.

Naming a stud dog 'Duchess' reminded me of the Johnny Cash song, 'A Boy Named Sue.'

If it was a 4 bet, would that work since it would be 16 chips?

The burning question: Is $3.75 a fair price for a taco truck taco?

They have these gourmet taco trucks now where you can get kimchi tacos or Kobe beef tacos, I'm pretty sure those are $3.75.

But not for a regular taco.

We came so close to having a $3.50 taco. That would've been epic.

Next time you play 8/16 yell out "FOUR POINT SIX TACOS!" and see if it gets back to 2+2.

Also if you open your own casino, spread a 14/28 LHE game with $3.50 chips.

That guy is kind of pricey.

The kogi tacos are only $2.50/taco
http://kogibbq.com/taqueria/

These guys charge $1.25/taco.

Must be the new wall tax.

OK: I open MP w/ A-Ko and declare '4.6 TACOS!' That froze everything for a moment and then everyone folded. Dealer looks at me w/ the old

and I say it's an internet joke. Later I opened the button w/ Q

and declare the same '4.6 TACOS!' which apparently just angered both blinds into calling (lol, FE at 8-16). Flop Q-7-3 and SB c/r's me, BB folds. Turn x and SB bets and I decide that declaring 'PLUS 4.6 TACOS MORE!' would be a douche move and just say 'raise' and ended up beating his A-Qo.

Doubt that this taco betting strategy gets legs.

Heh. I read somewhere once that the price of McDonalds Big Mac was an indicator of the varying countries economic strength. Perhaps I can bet in Big Macs.
