Bert and Ernie are sitting in the living room, and Bert is playing the Sunday Million on Pokerstars on his laptop.

Ernie : Bert?
Bert : Yes Ernie?
Ernie : We've got to go shopping tomorrow Bert.
Bert : Yes I know Ernie.
Ernie : What time are we going shopping Bert?
Bert : Whatever time we're ready Ernie.
Ernie : Bert?
Bert : Yes Ernie?
Ernie : What time will that be Bert?
Bert : I don't know Ernie. Ernie, I'm on the bubble of the final table, and I might just win a few thousand dollars, so can you just give me a bit of peace.
Ernie: Sorry Bert.....Bert?
Bert : *Sigh* Yes Ernie?
Ernie : I didn't mean to interrupt you Bert, I didn't realise you were playing poker. I'll be quiet now Bert.
Bert : Thank you Ernie.

*Ernie starts whistling*

Bert : Ernie. Is there any chance you could stop whistling Ernie?
Ernie : Whistling Bert?
Bert : Yes, you're whistling Ernie.
Ernie : Was I Bert? Sorry Bert.
Bert : No problem Ernie.
Ernie : Are you winning Bert?
Bert : I'm doing OK.
Ernie : Can I watch you Bert?
Bert : Yes, as long as you are quiet.
Ernie : I'll be quiet Bert.
...
...
Ernie : Are you sure you wanted to fold that seven and nine Bert?
Bert : Yes Ernie - I am sure.
Ernie : But it would have won the hand Bert.
Bert : I know that now Ernie, but in the situation it was a good fold.
Ernie : Whatever you say Ernie. You're the boss. But I wouldn't have folded them.
Bert : And you wouldn't last very long playing Ernie.
Ernie : But I would have more chips than you have now Bert, because the seven nine would have doubled up Bert.
Bert : But you can't play any hand pre-flop Ernie.
Ernie : I wouldn't play any hand Bert, just the ones that double up Bert.
Bert : OK ERNIE.
...
...
Ernie : Oooh Oooh A pair of Aces Bert.
Bert : I'm going to push now Ernie.
Ernie : Are you sure you want to do that Bert?

*Bert goes all in and is called by a player holding seven nine.
The seven nine sucks out and Bert is out.

Ernie : I told you seven nine was good didn't I Bert?

Bert headbutts the laptop continuously.....
