    Oliver just won $14,666 at a poker tournament. The recap includes gems like this:

    The next big hand of the day came on hand number 29. World renowned tournament reporter Oliver Tse raised to 9K from the button with 6d 6s. Jason Song moved all in behind him with pocket nines and the action was back onto Oliver. Oliver went into the tank for almost 6 minutes and eventually Jason called a clock on him. Tournament director at Caesars Paul Lord came over and counted down Oliver. After a minute had gone by Paul declared Oliver's hand dead and Jason took down a small pot. Only 3 hands later Oliver and Jason were at it again.

    Damn. I thought this was a thread about Broadway musicals based on Dickens novels.

    Don't start that talking
    I could talk all night
    My mind is sleepwalking
    While I'm putting the world to right

    Call careers information
    Have you got yourself an occupation?

    Oliver's army is here to stay
    Oliver's army are on their way
    And I would rather be anywhere else
    Than here today

    There was a checkpoint Charlie
    He didn't crack a smile
    But it's no laughing party
    When you've been on the murder mile

    Only takes one itchy trigger
    One more widow, one less white nigger

    Oliver's army is here to stay
    Oliver's army are on their way
    And I would rather be anywhere else
    Than here today

    Hong Kong is up for grabs
    London is full of Arabs
    We could be in Palestine
    Overrun by a Chinese line
    With the boys from the Mersey and the Thames and the Tyne

    But there's no danger
    It's a professional career
    Though it could be arranged
    With just a word in Mr. Churchill's ear

    If you're out of luck or out of work
    We could send you to Johannesburg


    Oliver's army is here to stay,
    Oliver's army are on their way,
    And I would rather be anywhere else
    Than here today,
    And I would rather be anywhere else
    Than here today,
    And I would rather be anywhere else
    Than here today,
    oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh ......
