Why children and poker don't mix



At least not always. See the funny story here: http://nolimitdoc.blogspot.com/2010/07/high-altitude-mtt-training.html

I'm reminded of a scene from the delightful documentary "King of Kong." Steve Wiebe is videotaping himself in his garage as he attempts (successfully) to set the world record score for Donkey Kong, when he has this interaction with his little boy (who is offscreen):

Derek Wiebe: [Yelling] Daaad!
Steve Wiebe: [Playing Donkey Kong] Yes, Derek. What's wrong?
Derek Wiebe: [Upset and Angry] Wipe my butt!


(Image and dialogue both found at the IMDB page for the movie.)
