qechvam vIparHa'. Perhaps you'd also summarize the discussion in
English, speculating on what makes a good curse and how the rules,
scoring, and betting work.
Speaking of your good ideas, did anyone at qep'a' besides me get to
play with your terrific magnetic syllables? I wanted to have more fun
with them but the time went so fast. I'm going to make some for myself
and put them on the fridge. It's a great way to play with vocabulary
and affixes.

/tlhIngan/ isn't a verb/adjective in Klingon, so to say "a Klingon
heart" you need to say /tlhIngan tIq/ "heart of a Klingon" or
"Klingon's heart."
And yes, a possible rejoinder is, /balDaq Dapol'a'?/
