What the Gray Mouser Can Teach You About Holdem


  Never as popular as Tolkien or Howard, Fritz Leiber nonetheless created one of the most memorable pairs of fantasy adventurers to ever cross the pages of literature. Fafhrd, the tall barbarian we'll leave alone for now and instead focus on his smaller, darker companion, the Gray Mouser. The Gray Mouser is the most successful independent thief in all of Lankhmar, an adventurer who has explored the farthest corners of the world as well as its deepest depths.



  The Gray Mouser isn't the strong half of the pair, instead, he relies on skills, wits, and cunning. The very things one must rely on when playing Holdem. He is also just a mortal in a world where gods, demons and great sorcerers play games with the lives of men, but that does not stop him from from taking what he wants from the world.



  You should learn from the Mouser. You should learn to rely on your skills and wits, secure in the knowledge that they are all you need to face down even the toughest and most wily of opponents. Remember that the mighty can be fooled and fallen by the meek. You should never question your ability to perform at the Holdem table, but always strive to improve that ability. Have the Mouser's confidence and wits, and you can take down any game.
