Doug Polk finding out his flight’s pilot was a member of the high-stakes pro’s own Upswing Poker lab was a nice coincidence and led to some decent poker funnies on Twitter yesterday – fans jumping at the chance to land the best joke.

Nicely played sir, but a bit of an ‘in joke’, as was Keith Machin’s effort, which for those who have watched a Polk video will be instantly recognisable…
Philip Woods scooped the first ‘one-liner’ with this witty effort…
The jokes kept coming, some better than others, but these two made the grade…
…although we’ll give the last word to this funny but slightly worrying thought…
