The Natural Seven Present Lady Luck

A Natural Seven is a “seven-card straight flush with no joker” in seven-card stud poker and is the highest ranked hand. When you hold this hand, Lady Luck should take no further part in the proceedings, although her long legs may prove a distraction. And there’s no luck involved in the creation of this TVD “Collaboration Special” compilation. The Seven in this case are members of this special Crew who came up with a rare selection of picks for this particular offering. I hope you appreciate the efforts of newbies billymac, Pobre' Rich, soulsider and sister DustyRose, as well as old hands ScavenJah, RossyBoy and G Man. From the sublime opener from Ronnie Walker through to Johnny Flamingo's farewell, there's just no way you can fold when there's such a jackpot to be won. So just roll up your sleeves, pull down your eye-shade, pour a large bourbon and settle in for a long evening.
