Poker Game

Six guys are playing poker when Smith loses $500 on a single hand，clutches his chest and drops dead at the table．Showing respect for their fallen comrade，the other five complete their playing time standing up．

Roberts looks around and asks，“Now，who is going to tell the wife？”

They draw straws．Rippington，who is always a loser，picks the short one．

They tell him to be discreet，be gentle，and don’t make a bad situation any worse than it is．

“Gentlemen！Discreet？I’m the most discreet man you will ever meet．Discretion is my middle name．Leave it to me．”

Rippington walks over to the Smith house，knocks on the door．The wife answers，and asks what he wants．

Rippington says，“Your husband just lost $500 playing cards．”

She hollers，“TELL HIM TO DROP DEAD！”

Rippington says，“I’ll tell him．”

纸牌游戏

有六个人正在玩纸牌，当史密斯一盘输了500美元后，突然紧抓着胸口，死在桌边。为了表示对逝去战友的尊敬，剩下的五人站着完成了余下的牌局。

罗伯特向四下看了看，问道：“现在谁去告诉他妻子呢？”

他们就抽签决定由谁去。瑞平顿一贯手气不好，这次也不例外，抽到了那支倒霉的签。

伙伴们告诉他要小心谨慎，温文尔雅，不要把事态搞得太糟。

“先生们！小心谨慎？我会是你们这辈子见过的最小心谨慎的人。我的别名就叫‘小心谨慎’，把这事交给我吧。”

瑞平顿来到史密斯家，敲了敲门，史密斯夫人出来开门，问他来干什么。

瑞平顿说：“你丈夫刚才玩牌时输了500美元。”

她大吼道：“告诉他让他去死吧！”

瑞平顿说：“我这就去告诉他。”
