Poker Night Farce at Nimrod Club Ends with Aborted Wager
A chaotic late night poker session at the New Year meeting of the HE Thompson Street Poker Club devolves into slapstick. Reverend Thankful Smith, Professor Brick, and guests spar over bets while Williams heckles, debts, and finally vanishes with the pot amid a long stream of dialect, laughter, and sleep. The tableau ends with Smith snoring, Williams missing funds, and the clock ticking away three hours.
