I've been workin' on this one for awhile with a shoestring budget, the lyrics have been in my brain for many years and the words have undergone many alterations and adjustments to keep pace with current poker culture. I'd like to thank the various people who brainstormed ideas with me and helped come up with pieces of this song. Hope you guys get a laugh out of this, and if you see me around be sure to say hello.

Kind of tough to say when one can see how much work was put into making it, but I have to be honest and score it 2 out of 10, and the two is only because the sound, picture and filming quality was decent. I didn't laugh at any point and had to force myself to carry on watching after about 2 minutes as it was quite boring.

Perhaps I'm not the target audience though, so maybe it is much better than I think it is.

Sorry

I appreciate the feedback! I think comedy is one of those things that resonates with someone or doesn't, or its just shitty and isn't funny, but I gave it a whirl.

It was weird to see you put so much work into it but just speak the lyrics monotone.

Yeah this definitely my biggest criticism of myself in this. The original plan was to auto tune it somehow because I can’t sing worth a damn, so I thought speaking slower/cleaner would make it easier to do that process. But as it stands it’s just like me talking monotone. Could always try it again.

Great work, as soon as I heard, "if you had one gut shot..." I burst out laughing!

Your rapping skill is pretty weak and I think it could have been significantly improved upon with a bit more practice and commitment, but I have to commend you for the concept, the writing, and general execution.

It's a nice idea, good effort, execution didn't make the grade.

I miss srslysirious. Like, listen to him doing a parody cover of an Eminem song:

I mean this is the nicest possible way... I've seen beheading videos that were easier to get through

You're right, this is definitely the gold standard.

I found it more fun with the lyrics monotone. It fits the "so bad it's good" theme with dad jokes.

Stopped when the "you had one gutshot" line hit. Hard to think anything more cringe than someone trying to make poker related jokes.
