Play poker with the voice of Apu tonight
Attention all you aspiring Chris Moneymakers and fanatical Simpsons geeks: Hank Azaria is looking for people to join his poker game tonight at his joint in SoHo, according to the New York Post. So get your spot while you can.
HANK Azaria is hosting a poker party tonight at his SoHo pad. How do we know? We were forwarded the following e-mail from the actor’s assistant, Illana Manaster: “I have seven spots for poker on Thursday night at Hank Azaria’s place in SoHo. The game is no limit, $500 buy-in. I will happily reserve spots for the first seven people who get back to me. The game will start around 8:30.” Others who were cc’d the e-mail included actor/producer Fisher Stevens, chef Bobby Flay and nightlife power player Scott Sartiano.
“Oh no, Hank, you didn’t lose. You’ve got the uh… royal sampler.”

I go to Hank Azaria’s Poker game, a transcript:
Jeff: (in Dr. Nick voice) Hi Everybody!
Hank: Not bad not bad, take a seat. It’s good to have you here.
Fisher Stevens: Alright buddy, it’s $500. – here’s your chips
Jeff: (Apu) Thank you, come again
Hank: Yikes! I like your Hank better, or maybe you should stick to your day job. – (deals)
Jeff: (Comic book guy) Worst. Hand. Ever
Hank: Dude, that’s enough, seriously. I can’t take a whole game of this.
Jeff: (Wiggum) What? What?….this better be about Pizza.
Hank: Fuck you.
Jeff: (Lou) Whatdja say Chief?
Hank: It’s not funny, fuck you.
Jeff: (Moe) Watch out, I’ll give you the old fork in the eye!
Hank: Give him back his money before I beat the shit out of him
Jeff: (Carl) Eh Jeff’s okay, he makes mistakes, but you know, that’s why they put erasers on pencils.
Hank: Get the fuck out of here….
Jeff: (Lenny) Hey Hank, you can’t talk to Carl Carlson like that….like I once said to a cop…YOU’RE driving under the influence….of being a jerk!
Hank: I don’t even do Lenny!

Shit, that second Hank line should read “I like your Apu better”. You know….to make sense.
