Hi, gang. It's been a while. Did you miss me?
Previously antedated to 1906, with references to strip tunk and
*pajama poker" 1904.

I have found a reference to the exact phrase "Strip poker" that seems to
be from 1904.
(With apologies to the Tin Woodman)
Must I attend recitations ?
Why can't I cut when I choose?
Why is "strip poker" forbidden?
Why can't a man have his booze?

Google dated to 1904. We all know how unreliable Google dating is, but
this appears to be the top of the same page.
