Hard to believe Tex Guinan didn’t come up with that.
Stealing an apple?
If you have to sin, you might as well be original.
If one accepts that there is sin then surely each and every sin must have been original once.
I’m sure the Pope disagrees with Elvis on this one. I’m sticking with Elvis.
A little context?
I know what you’re doin’.
I know where you’ve been.
I know where, but I don’t care,
‘Cause there’s no such thing as an original sin.
Yes, and that’s the whole point.
Theologically, of course, that’s not what ‘original’ means. But Tom Lehrer provided a richer context in ‘Vatican Rag’ (while also misuing the adjective):
Get in line in that processional
Step into that small confessional
There a cat who’s got religion’ll
Tell you if your sin’s original:
If it’s not, then play it safer,
Drink the wine and chew the wafer:
2 – 4 – 6 – 8
Time to transubstantiate!
My sins are so unoriginal
I have all the self loathing of a wolf in sheep’s clothing
In this carnival of carnivores
Heaven help me
—Billy Bragg, “Accident Waiting to Happen”
Of course, it’s clear that Bragg messed up what he intended to say: “sheep in *wolf’s* clothing.”
Asal mula web Judi Poker Online Mengelokkan dipercaya di Dunia.
Dari segi buku Foster’ s Complete Hoyle, RF Foster menyelipkan “ Permainan situs pokerqq paling dipercaya dimainkan mula-mula di Amerika Serikat, lima kartu bikin masing masing pemain dari satu antaran kartu berisi 20 kartu”. Tetapi ada banyaknya ahli tarikh yg tidak setuju diantaranya David Parlett yg menguatkan jika permainan situs judi poker online paling dipercaya ini mirip seperti permainan kartu dari Persia yang dibawa oleh As-Nas. Kurang lebih sejahrawan menjelaskan nama produk ini diambil dari Poca Irlandi adalah Pron Pokah atau Pocket, tetapi masih menjadi abu-abu karena tidak dijumpai dengan pasti sapa yg menjelaskan permainan itu menjadi permainan poker.
Walau ada sisi per judian dalam semua tipe permainan ini, banyak pakar menjelaskan lebih jelas berkaitan gimana situs judi poker mampu menjadi game taruhan yang disenangi beberapa orang dalam Amerika Serikat. Itu berjalan bertepatan dengan munculnya betting di daerah sungai Mississippi dan daerah sekelilingnya pada tahun 1700 an serta 1800 an. Pada saat itu mungkin serius tampil terdapatnya keserupaan antara poker masa lalu dengan modern poker online tidak hanya pada trick berspekulasi tetapi sampai ke pikiran di tempat. Mungkin ini lah cikal akan munculnya permainan poker modern yg kalian ketahui sampai saat tersebut.
Riwayat awal timbulnya situs judi poker paling dipercaya Di dalam graha judi, salon sampai kapal-kapal yg siapkan arena betting yg ada didaerah setengah Mississippi, mereka terkadang bermain cukup hanya manfaatkan 1 dek yg beberapa 20 kartu (seperti permainan as-nas). Game itu terkadang dimainkan langsung tidak dengan diundi, langsung menang, punya putaran taruhan, dapat meningkatkan perhitungan taruhan seperi game as-nas.
Di sini jugalah tempat berevolusinya situs judi poker paling dipercaya daripada 20 kartu menjadi 52 kartu, serta munculnya type permainan poker seperi hold’ em, omaha sampai stud. Herannya orang melihat bila poker stud jadi poker pertama dan classic yang telah dimainkan lebih daripada 200 tahun.
Diakhir tahun 1800 an sajian Poker Online mulai disematkan lagi ketentuan baru diantaranya straight dan flush serta beberapa type tipe yang lain lain seperti tipe poker low ball, wild cards, community cards of one mode dan lainnya.
