The best game: the poker


.I saw in an other blog someone who make an article about poker. I think have had this idea since many time but I never had courage to make it. As I play it sometimes during the weeks in lisieux.

Poker is a card game you practise with several players using a set of fifty-two cards and chips. Most often the players use the chips to represent the money they are playing. There is several differents rules. The most played is the hold'em. I would like to introduce you this kind of poker. At the begining all the players receive two downcards as their personal hand ( called holecards), after they saw these there is a round of betting. This round is over when the player have the same number of chips in front of them.Three boardcards are turned simultaneously (called the flop) and another round of betting occurs. In fact the player payd to see the card.The next two boardcards are turned oneby one, with a round of betting after each card. The player bet because they hope the will have the best five-card combination from among the board and his personal cards. A player win if any body have more than him. The combination order is :

-high card
-pair
-two pairs
-three of a kind
-straight
-flush
-full house-four of a kind
-straight flush
-royal flush
I hope this small explication could do you will play, maybe with me, during the week. I forgot to say you if you play with me you will lose because I win every time....

The best french serie : Plus belle la vie (of course)


Many people will disagree, saying the actors are bad players, the stories are unrealistic, and this is no worth following this serie every night because we know what's going to happen next. However, the fact is that the channel gets more than three million viewers at each broadcast. And this figure shows I'm not the only one who likes Plus belle la vie (PBLV).

20:20 pm, after having diner, the news on all the other channels, I can't help myslef watching PBLV. No need to think too hard, I spend twenty-five minutes watching the Mistral inabitants' life. I've known them for a couple of years now : Rolland, the owner of the popular bar, Mélanie, the waitress, Nathan the teenager...

The actors will never be stars of cinema, because they can't play as well as Morgan Freeman, but I don't even notice the mistakes they make anymore.
The scenarists will never receive any price, because the stories aren't original, but I really care about what's going on in Rudy's life or in Blanche's family even if they don't have super powers.

French people like PBLV, because they can identify themselves with the characters. (I look like Rudy << I dont' t think that but people said that)). And, the most important moment is the end. It's always so surprising, I have to watch the following episode...

PBLV is also a moment when families or friends are together to talk about what's going to happen.

Message for emile et victor: I will be to play to poker with you only if I can watch PBLV

The best in the music: David Guetta, Sniper, Bob Marley



For me David Guetta is the best DJ in the world. His best known song are “The world is mine”, “Love don’t let me go”, “Love is gone” and “Baby when the light".


I think he’s the best, and one day i’ll go to see him at Ibiza. I’ve sawn him twice and it was the best night in my life (except a little problem). Each time, a friend mine drove us to the party, so that I could really enjoy the night. I was about to see him again this summer at Cannes but there was a small incident (not my fault this time) so I didn’t.

He’ll mix on December 7th at “Les Planches” and i think about going overthere.

Sniper is the best french rap band who has ever sang. It’s composed by 3 artists : El tunisino, Aketo and blacko. They come from the Val d’Oise.

This band is like no other because all their lyrics mean somehting and are well thought.

They have made many albums, but my favorite are : the first on “Du rire au larme” made in 2001, the second one, called “Gravé dans la roche”, which has been the more successful, The songs were about the israëlo-palestin conflict. And i liked also the last one “Trait pour trait”. Because of it, the band was in trouble with the Justice with the songs “La France” and “Jeteurs de pierres”. Nicolas Sarkozy called them antisemists because of the last one.

Sniper is the band i’ve the most listened to in my childhood, and it’s my favorite one !

Bob Marley was a Jamaican singer, songwriter, guitarist, and activist. He is the most widely known performer of reggae music. A faithful Rastafarian, Marley is regarded by many as a prophet of the religion.

Bob Marley is best known for his reggae songs, which include the hits "I Shot the Sheriff", "No Woman, No Cry", "Three Little Birds", "Exodus", "Could You Be Loved", "Jammin'", "Redemption Song", and "One Love". His posthumous compilation album Legend(1984) is the best-selling reggae album ever, with sales of more than 12 million copies.




The best film: Lucky Number Slevin



This is a film made by Paul McGuigan, which was realised in June 2006. Many famous actors play in it such as Bruce Willis, Josh Hartnett, Morgan Freeman, Lucy Liu or Mickael Runbenfeld.

I am not going to tell the story of the film, otherwise you would have no reason to see it, but I will tell you what I thought about it.

This film is great. It's not like american movies with the usual killers and the totally unreal stunts. The story is original, and the suspense is there until the end. All the details are well done, references until the choice of actors. I admire such films which are, nowadays, becoming increasingly rare. That is, a true scenario concrete, a dream cast and a realisation control. Slevin is not to be missed!

I warn you, however, that since this is a good senario, the story really begins in the second part of the film. So, be patient.

The best players: Zizou and Ronaldinho



Ronaldinho: For me, this is the best player still active Aathough not currently in form. I am a fan of him since he played with Paris Saint Germain although it was often substitute. I know him since 1997 when he won the World Cup under-17 years with brazil and the copa america won in 1999 with the team first.
In 2001, he arrived in Paris where I saw him play twice: once in a friendly match aigainst Caen and once at the Parc Des Princes against Troyes and he took a match extraordinary lay and did earn his team 4-2 then she lost 2-0 at the half.
In 2002, Brazil won the World Cup in particular thanks to him and Ronaldo. In 2003, he signed with FC Barcelona and its first year in a big club, he was elected player of the year before the consecration in 2005 and he became a ball of gold. He also won the Champions League against arsenal in 2006. As I said, for me it is the best player in the world…… since zizou retired
