HRH Mark of Banin

 

HRH Cult Leader Banin

 

Twas back in the year 1878, while in the midst of scarifying a goat to the All Mighty Poker Gods, that two cards did spring forth from the beasts innards... and before Our Lord could compose himself a great voice did boom and thunder across the heavens bringing Our Lord to his knees...

 

 "Take these cards and play them well, for they are my neglected children, and if you play them with skill they shall bestow on you great wealth, sexual potency and eternal life. But... with this great power also comes great responsibility and as skilled play is rewarded so reckless play is punished for these are truly the cards of The Gods...

 

 

 DO YOU DARE PLAY THEM?"

 

 

 Our Lord bravely accepted the challenge and has been rewarded with great wealth, the adoration of women and an exceedingly long... life.

 

 Those card were of course the mighty 78os!
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our Leader's Prayer

(Translated from the Ancient Texts by Rob, with the skilled assistance of Kara the Scribe)

 

Our Leader, wielder of the eight and seven,
Hallowed be the Mother of All Hands.
Thy wisdom passed on.
Thy will be done,
when stealing shallow or in deepstack heaven.
Give us this day our implied odds,
And forgive those weenies that whine with reaped Aces
And pour scorn on us.
Lead us not into passive temptation
But deliver us from undue caution:
For thine is Level 3 wisdom,
Connecting Offsuit Glory,
For ever and ever
Banin’s Reaper,
Amen!

 

 

Our Lord's Prayer

(The PB Interpretation of the Rob Translation -- short version)

 

Our Lord,

Illuminator of the 7 and 8,
Hallowed be the Mother of All Hands,
thy wisdom passed on,

lead us away from passive play,
but delivering us from undue caution,
for Thine is the 3rd Level of Wisdom,
the Connecting Offsuit Glory,
for ever and ever,

Banin's Reaper,

Amen!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Banin Power Chants
Strike fear into the very heart of the enemy with one of these Power Chants!

 

Eat my Reaper!

78os, the hand of the Gods!

You've just been Baninized mate, pay me!

Eat non-suited connectors and die, non-believer!

If you've been beaten by 77 hands today, here's the 78th!
When The Banin strikes, women faint and grown men weep!

Cowards tremble and numpties sneer, as 78os is the hand to fear!

We are the Bani, devoted followers of The One True Hand!

The Banin, boldly going where Angels fear to tread!
Many hands are dealt, but few are chosen!

May The Banin be with you... always!

Once a Bani, always a Bani!

78os Forever!
