Top Poker Hands

There a quite a number of articles of strip poker stories circulating on the internet, some of them written in truth while others just made up by people. However, one of the most fascinating stories I ever heard strip poker was being played in college.

There was one particular weekend where a few freshmen, including guys and girls were in one of the study rooms playing some card games. In order to spice things up, one of them suggested playing strip poker. As to be expected, the girls were a bit hesitant to play. But after some persuading by the guys, they agreed.

Midway through the game, they decided to change a stakes a little. Instead of strip poker, sexual favors will suffice for the rewards. Little they know that the rooms were equipped with CCTV. While they were heavily engaged in their game of poker and sex, the school authorities saw the mess going on in the study room and called the police to report the activities.

In a report by a police officer to the school, the police recounted the sight before him when he entered the study room: There was a young lady lying on the floor in front of a young man with her face deeply buried in his legs. So much for a fascinating story eh?

Hoyle Poker Rules was named after Edmond Hoyle, an authority in card games who wrote a book of rules and procedures on games. Edmond Hoyle was born in Yorkshire in 1672 and died in 1769. Not much was known of him before his death.

Poker was not invented until 150 years after Edmond Hoyle died. So what are Hoyle Poker Rules and why does it have to do with poker since Edmond Hoyle died 150 before poker was invented? Actually Hoyle has nothing to do with poker. It was in the 18th century when Edmond Hoyle published a book on gambling. In this book he describes about gaming and the rules and standards on a wide variety of games. Although in his book Edmond Hoyle did not describe poker, the rules of Hoyle were eventually evolved into poker.

Hoyle Poker Rules denote honesty and integrity. So whenever you heard people saying Hoyle Poker Rules, it merely demotes honesty and integrity in the game of Poker.
