Misfortune continues to deal hard-luck former slugger Jose Canseco a bad hand.

Canseco said on Twitter Friday night that he was playing cards at poker tournament in Las Vegas Friday when his badly injured middle finger on his left hand fell off.

The confessed steroid cheat accidentally shot himself in the hand last month while cleaning his gun at home. Doctors attempted to save it, apparently without success.

At least no one said “I’ll see that finger and raise you a hand.”

When he lost the hand, he gave his opponent the finger.

I’ve had BAD DAYS, but never lost an appendage. I suspect that Jose knows enough to keep the REAL REASON under wraps, as that could really cause have a life-changing impact on him.

But hopefully he gets some help...virtually every state now has a gambling hotline.

I figured his opponent might have broken it off after getting the bird.

No, gotta be a joke. Unless he thinks it's like a space age version of the Silver Comet?

Lots of fastballs to the head or something.

I’m guessing that ‘I was cleaning my gun and it went off’ once again really means ‘I was doing something stupid with it that I don’t want to publicly admit’.

Once again.
