ITALIAN POKER CLUB


Seven retired Italian Floridian fellows were playing poker in the condo clubhouse when Vinny loses $500 on a single hand, clutches his chest, and drops dead at the table.
Showing respect for their fallen comrade, the other six continue playing, but standing up.
At the end of the game, Tony looks around and asks, "So, who's gonna' tell his wife?"
They cut the cards. Joey picks the low card and has to carry the news.
They tell him to be discreet, be gentle, don't make a bad situation any worse.
"Discreet? I'm the most discreet person you'll ever meet. Discretion is my middle name. Leave it to me!"
So, Joey goes over to the Vinny's condo and knocks on the door.
The wife answers through the door and asks what he wants? Joey declares: "Your husband just lost $500 in a poker game and is afraid to come home."
"Tell him to drop dead!" yells the wife.
"I'll go tell him." says Joey.
