if i even step foot in a casino, just take $20 from me and slap my behind out the door again.
why should it be any different in poker?
last night, my father was in town, and at my sisters house we played texas hold 'em.
7 at the table, we are playing with 5¢ 10¢ 25¢ 50¢ $1 chips. small blind is 5¢ big is 10¢.
holding an ace of diamonds, and a 4 clubs, i see the flop. 3 diamonds, one being a 4. i got 2 reasons to stay alive.
slow play getting the pot up to 50¢ bets, then on the turn i get the 5th diamond. i slow play it to the river, then drop the $1 bet. with 4 diamonds showing, i know at least 1 of the others in (3 way action) has the flush too. turns out both others did, but i had the ace
i am the chip leader on the table, and doing allrighty.
within 1/2 hour i get beat on another flush, this time i got the king, but the other person has the ace. what are the odds of an ace flush 2 times in 20 minutes? lost a ton on that hand.
lose 3 10's to 3 queens next hand (1 queen showning from the flop)
lose a 7's and 2''s boat to 2's and kings boat next hand to go out of game (1 king showing on the river)
3 hands in a row i lose with: king high flush, 3 tens, and a full house.
