Happy 4th of July

I love the fourth of July -- admittedly, mainly because its a chance for a day off filled with barbeque and fireworks... with a significant chance of a little home poker game with friends at the end of the evening. What could be better? And in my opinion, poker is just as American as apple pie or baseball -- it's one of our great national pastimes. Read more about the U.S. and poker with these articles, and have a great fourth!
