There are plastic chips which you can get for a cheaper price, but if you want to go all out with your present, choose the poker chips made of clay and ceramic.

Gary Joerres, a retired restaurant owner, missed the Derby Lane Poker Room during the shutdown caused by the coronavirus. The St. Petersburg resident is a regular at the Texas hold ’em tables at the Poker Room, which opened with a limited capacity May 20. Joerres, 69, plays about five days a week and has for 15 years or more. His tip for not going broke, he says, is to limit the amount you’re willing to lose. Joerres said he likes Derby Lane’s measures against the virus, including checking the temperature of everyone, requiring masks and restricting the number of players at tables.

So you’re happy to see the place again.

Exactly … We didn’t think it would be two months. We thought maybe it would be 10 days or two weeks. We knew it was serious, but we never knew it was this serious.

Did you get up any games with friends at home during the shutdown?

Nobody really wanted to get out and about and get together like that. It’s something you’ve got to be very serious about. There’s still a lot of people dying; we definitely don’t want to be one of them. We can always play cards. We don’t want to rush into it.

Is this a hobby, or is this the way you make a living?

Oh, no, I’m not a professional. I just like to have fun.

What’s the best hand you’ve ever had?

A royal flush (the highest hand) … How many times? In spades, twice, but I’ve had other royal flushes. I had clubs, hearts – matter-of-fact I’ve had all four of them already ... I just had a straight flush a little while ago, a nine, 10, jack, queen and king of clubs.

What is largest pot you’ve ever had?

The largest one? It was that spade royal thing – about three grand.

How long do you stay?

If I’m having a good time, I’ll play four, five, six hours. If I’m not having a good time, I’ll get up and leave in an hour and a half … Just not my day. Why stay and give money away?

(Interviewed another day.) I stayed almost seven hours today … didn’t have to reach into my pocket once. I was quite happy …

How much did you win?

Almost a thousand.

Your system is to fold hands that you don’t have confidence in.

You could play every hand, but you could, like, just give money away. A bad hand you don’t play. But people do. Believe me, I saw them today.

When you hit something like a $1,000 day, do you go celebrate at Bern’s Steak House?

I go out for a steak, but maybe not to Bern’s. That’s (near) downtown Tampa. I live the opposite way.

Does wearing a mask help with the poker face?

I’d have to say definitely. The poker face would definitely (be helped) with the mask. … Some people walk in with that, and I’ve been playing with them for years, and I go, “Is that you?’’ It really covers everything up but the eyes.

Can you tell by looking at fellow players’ expressions whether they have a good or bad hand?

Sometimes you can’t; sometimes you can. Some people have a little give-away. You’ve just got to watch them a little bit. And some people are really good at it and don’t give anything away.

How are you at it?

I try to be steady. Like I mentioned earlier – that big royal flush, you don’t get up and get excited. You just try to keep that way all the time.

What is your usual game pot?

It could be 20 bucks sometimes. Sometimes it could be 200 bucks (if) you get some aggressive players at the table.

How much does it cost to get in the game?

The $1-$2 (ante) game – $60.

You say you feel comfortable playing now because of Derby Lane’s precautions?

Very much. That’s what I like. Also, they have cashiers that run around and take care of dealers with change and get people stuff. And when they’re not busy, they’ve got a towel and a spray bottle in their hands, wiping things down. Someone gets up from a chair, they wipe down the chair and the table in front of them before the next player sits down. I like that a lot.

Kharn Lambert is one of more than 90 people being held in quarantine in the UK over coronavirus fears.

Mr Lambert, who was teaching in Wuhan, has been staying at the Arrowe Park Hospital in the Wirral for the past week.

Here, he tells of his experiences in isolation.

The end is in sight. Thursday 13 February will be the 'release' date.

No, this is not prison - this is quarantine.

However, living inside a fenced off area makes it seem somewhat like prison.

This week has been a mixture of emotions: relief to be home and away from the dangers of Wuhan, but also a sense of sadness at leaving so many friends behind.

It has been a real emotional roller-coaster. Nevertheless, we have tried to keep spirits high to help time pass faster.

With a week gone and the days seeming like years, we are suddenly a week away from going home and the likelihood of anyone having the virus is decreasing day by day.

The mood has changed.

People are more willing to come out of their rooms and interact with each other.

A few of the 'inmates' are planning to have their second poker match, and as Lady Gaga sang, they 'can't read my, can't read my, no [they] can't read my poker face'.

I must admit I lost £60 on the first night - but all in the name of fun.

To keep us further entertained, I have decided to write and host a quiz on Sunday evening.

Hopefully that will separate the strong from the weak, or at least give us an indication as to how boredom has affected our intelligence - that would make an interesting study.

I should also mention how fantastic the staff here at Arrowe Park Hospital have been from the moment we arrived on Friday evening.

There are no words to express the admiration we have for these heroes who have been pulled from their regular day-to-day posts to help deal with the situation and make us feel as comfortable possible under the circumstances.

Saying thank you doesn't seem to do it justice.

Then we have the people of the Wirral who have all pulled together to offer support.

The amount of stuff they have donated is insane (in a good way).

From knitting material to hand-written notes and cards, each and every item has truly touched the hearts of those in here and has brought many a tear, as well as huge joy.

Words cannot express how grateful we are to them.

The love and compassion shown towards us from people on the Wirral and the wider community has been nothing less than amazing and we cannot wait to meet some of them when we get out of here.

As for my personal feelings, it's hard to describe what I'm really feeling.

Maybe if they, the Chinese authorities, had listened rather than trying to cover things up, we wouldn't be in this situation now.

In the coming months, China is going to have to answer a lot of difficult questions.

For a country like China, this is going to be unprecedented.

This is far from over and the only way for China to regain its credibility is to start being more open to the international community.
