Stars support is awesome - Poker Beats Brags and Variance

But clearly not the smartest.

Me:

I'm close to Supernova, but need motivation to get there. Any chance you could write me a motivational haiku to get me back to the tables? Thank you.

Stars:

Hello Daniel,

Thank you for your email.

Everyone can win aces,
winning seven deuce, however
is much more funny

If that does not motivate you enough, we are always happy to oblige with
more inspirational materials.

Good luck future SuperNova!

Regards,

Zandi D

[ ] haiku

I will update when Zandi hits me back.

Wow, Zandi is a quick one.

Stars:

Hello Daniel,

Thank you for your email

What do you mean by [ ] haiku?

Do not worry, we are currently producing a better one.

Me:

Zandi,

I can not really explain in words what [ ] haiku means. Perhaps an example will better demonstrate the empty checkbox.

[ ] I can win flips vs. shortstacks
[x] your haiku was incorrectly formatted

Thank you for all the help.

Lol... zandi comes up just a bit short again... (and i'm not sure about the first one. Smile is a 1 or 2 syllable word?)

Hello Daniel,

Thank you for information.

You are correct and I can only apologize, blaming only myself for being a
non-native speaker of English.

My friendly Welsh coworker suggests:

your aces got cracked
but the poker gods smile now
you get quads next hand

And I have made another:

pocket aces, great
deuce deuce deuce flop, enemy has one
****ing hell doomswitch

I do apologize, again, for my ignorance.

Regards,

Zandi D

in other news, confirmation of stars doomswitch???

yet again, amazing....
wow, there support should be the model for every company everywhere,

Though I must say if his Haiku's are true they aren't very inspirational towards grinding out Supernova, they are about getting your aces cracked

EDIT: I think the first is 5,7,5 if gods is one

Guys, how are you pronouncing Gods and Smiles if you think they have more than one syllable?

Also, she's coming on to you with that last one.

stars support is the nuts, thats for sure. seems like a great company to work for, if support-people dealing with complains day in day out, still seem to have fun.
