I want to give thanks to NoSnow for helping on this story.
At the end of School Pete yells "Hey Joey, don't forget about the poker game at your house this Friday.
"Ok shit, it is this Friday; I will have to remind my Dad and Mom.I think they are entertaining Friday also. Who all is coming this week?"
"Well it will be Chris, Tim, Mark, and Dave. He is home from college for a week or two" said Pete.
"Oh man you know my Mom don't like him. She thinks he is rude and she don't like the way he treats his girlfriends.I better let her know ahead of time."
Pete looked at me and said "You better let me know if we can still come over tonight."
"Ok I'll give you a call."
During dinner I reminded my parents that it was my turn to host the poker game this Friday and who all was going to be there.
Mom said "I don't like that Dave. He thinks he's God gift to everything plus he always wins. He is just an ass hole.I don't know if I even want him in our home."
I replied "Maybe he's grown-up? He has been away at college for 6 months, plus his luck has to change."
Dad jumped in "Its' ok for the guys to come on over, even Dave.Remember we'll also be entertaining so you guys will have to be in the basement."
Mom said "Ok, I will try and be nice.We'll see what happens."
I called Pete and told him the game was on but we'll have to set up and play in the basement.He said he was ok with it.I also told him to let Dave know to behave.
Friday evening, right around six o'clock all of my friends that were playing arrived. My parent's friends were showing up around 7:00.
Dave asked "What are the game rules? It has been a year since I've played."
"It's 50 dollars to buy-in and you can't leave the area to get more money.In this case the basement."
Dave said "Cool. Hey guys I brought four cameras. They run off this controller.I can turn them off and on, and change the angle, even get close ups, while we play the game sitting here at the table. If you don't mind I like to check them out to make sure they work tonight."
We all agreed that it wouldn't be a problem. So Dave put them around the room.When he was done he told us he could view the whole basement. Then Dave asked me "Your mom still doesn't like me does she?"
I said "What makes you say that?"
"Oh, just the way she looked at me when I came in."
I said "Yeah, you're right, so you need to either be nice around her or just stay away from her."
I guess I should tell you a little bit about the guys.We all played football and that is how we became friends. Pete is 18 and a real nice guy. Mark's nick name is 'Nuts' and that should explain him.He also knows how to cheat at dealing.He can make sure to give the right cards to any person he wants to win. Chris is 18 and is a little rude and crude. Tim is the youngest; he just turned 18 and is on the shy side. He took Dave's place when he went to college.Dave is the oldest at 19; he was a year ahead of us but still hung around with us. He does think he is the greatest thing that ever walked on earth and is VERY lucky. He seems to win at everything he does. I am, well, I would say I am a good football player and I go with the flow, if you know what I mean.
"Who is the banker tonight?" asked one of the guys.
Chris said he would be it. "Cool" Dave said as he ran a test on his cameras.He had all of us state our names and ages for the test.
"Ok, let's start playing."
After about an hour of playing my mother came down to the basement with her friend Sue, you could hear a pin drop.Now all of the guys think my mom is an attractive woman. From time to time they call her a MILF.Mom was looking really good tonight in her dress.Sue was just as attractive as my Mom.So I gave them both a run down on the game and introduce them to the guys.
"Who's winning?" Mom asked. I told her that Dave was.
She looked at Dave and said "You know you're just lucky and it will change."
He looked at her and said "It is skill, all skill."
She turned around and left with Sue close behind her.You could hear her telling Sue how she just didn't like Dave.
I said "We can hear you." She looked at me and continued to walk up the stairs.
Chris looked around the table and said "I sure would like to see them two naked."We all smiled and went back to the game.
My parent's friends left around 11.Dad and mom came into the basement to check on the game.I gave them both another run down on the game, "Pete and Tim have lost all their money and were just watching the game. It looked like Dave was going to be the big winner tonight."
Mom said "Someone needs to teach Dave a lesson."
Dave looked at my mom and said "I think you had too much to drink already tonight."
Mom said "I can hold my wine."
Then Dave asked if she was going to be the one to teach him this lesson.This just pissed my mom off and she said "Yes I think I will."
"It isn't as easy as it looks," Dad replied. "These kids play online these days and they have been playing regularly for years."
Mom just looked at my dad and then asked "What are the rules."I told mom the rules then asked Mom and Dad if they wanted to play.Dad said he was in. Mom said she was in but needed to get her purse.When she got back Dad had already got his chips and Mom sat down.She gave her money to Chris and he passed her some chips.
After about an hour my Dad lost his money and said he was going to bed.Mark asked if he wanted to buy in again. He said "No way, you guys are too lucky tonight."
He looked at Dave and told him you're the better man tonight."We all laughed.He looked at Mom and asked if she was done.She looked at him and said "No, I'm going to teach these guys who the better player." We all knew she meant Dave.
Dad took me aside and said "Don'tgang up on you Mother."
"Dad, we would never gang up on her," I replied innocently.
"You know what I mean. Just don't let you and the other guys gun for her to push her out of the game."
"Alright dad, we'll keep it cool. But she wants to teach Dave a lesson so I think it will be a long night as long as she can hold her own."
"Well you just keep an eye out and don't let the game get out of control."
"Ok dad."
He went upstairs to bed and I went back to the game.
After Dad left, my Mom said "The rest of the night just call me Mary. No need to be formal at the poker table." While shuffling the cards she said "Joey could you get me a glass of wine."
