Little Johnny had just turned six and much to his parents' chagrin, had never
spoken.
Johnny's Grandpa, a well-known local poker player, was sympathetic to Johnny's
plight, and would
take Johnny with him whenever possible.
One regular bonding between grandpa and grandson was at the Elk's Club Saturday
night straight
poker game. Johnny would sit on Grandpa's lap and faithfully watch as Grandpa
regularly cleaned
out the town council members, local attorneys and judges.
One Saturday night, Grandpa's cards were running bad. Nothing was working. For
the first time, it
looked like Grandpa's famous winning streak was about to come to an end. Towards
the end of the
evening, furious at his run of bad luck, Grandpa folded and threw his cards on
the pot in disgust.
Johnny looked up at his grandpa and said, “You shouldn't have folded, Grandpa.”
Grandpa was stunned. “Johnny, you're six years old, and these are the first
words you've ever
spoken!”
Johnny looked at Grandpa and said, “Well, up 'til now, you've been playing just
fine.”
