theomen 0 Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 couldn't wait to post these today me and a couple friends were hanging out at the bar with all of our wifes. were going to go home and get a small cash game going, but all the (drunk) wifes wanted to play too, so we agreed to just play for fun - handed out equal chip stacks to everyone.So my wife - who knows absolutely NOTHING about poker, can't stand it when I watch it on TV, doesn't even know when or whether she needs to check, bet, call, raise, etc..has absolutely no interest in poker whatsoever (I'm not even sure at this point that she even knows the poker hand ranks) - comes up with these gems tonight:all games were 5/10 total of 6 at the table ****2nd hand of the nightI have K, 4flop A, k, 7all fold except me and my wifedont' remember turn or river - not importantafter calling my 50, 75 and 150 rasies on flop turn and river (i'm thinking she has no idea what she even has at this point...)turns over her A,K and says "I'm not afraid of you" that got a good laugh - at my expense - as I'm the resident "gambler" of the bunch***wife is in again heads up against my boss - who basically plays just about anything and raises constantly, so you really never have a good idea of what he has. cards come 3, 7, j, k, 4wife bets every hand through the turn prety good (50-100) and boss calls every bet.Wife checks the river - boss, slightly puzzled at this point also checks. Wife turns over pocket 2's. Boss turns over a 9,7. I look at my wife - "that probably wasn't the best play on that one..." W: "why?" Me: "well - any of those cards in someone's hand beats you cause they pair it up."W: "I was bluffing"Me and boss at the same time, laughing: "If you were bluffing, you might have wanted to actually bet the river then instead of checking, cause that kind of hints that you actually don't have anythign that good."***Wife heads up against my boss again:Wife calls BB, limps into flop and turn for about 50. Nothing real exciting on the board, only one face card, no stright or flush draws. nothing paired. Boss raises each time (anywhere from 100-200) and she calls each time. Wife then bets 10 on the river. Boss (utterly baffeld at this point) just calls. Wife flips over pocket aces. Everyone is like man you gotta BET THAT!! She says "he might've had two pair" I thought about it for a second, and the boss' bet patterns, and realized she was actually pretty much right....even if the dime wasn't the best play at the end of that...***my favorite of the night: Wife is dealing, accidentally deals to guy to my right who she took out on an all in call last hand. Guy (moving card to me): No, no, don't deal me in. I don't have any chips left.Wife: Oh - that's right, you're "all out"that got a big round of laughs***At end of the night, when we decided to quit, wife was second in chips out of the six of us (I was first). Have to say I was just a little surprised. She says to me on the drive home "I might be playing a little bit closer attention than you think when you're playing or watching those shows..."She caught some good cards which helped alot, but she also just played really conservatively and bet only when she was pretty sure she had something really good. No one here was exactly a true "poker player" but I have to say I was pretty surprised considering I didn't even expect my wife to actually know the poker hand rankings. All in all, a really fun night. all for play money and all in good fun - so please don't bag on my play Link to post Share on other sites

aadams_22 3 Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 Playing at B&M over the weekend. 3/6 game on kill (now 6/12 this hand) I have QQ utg, raise, get called in 2 places. Flop 2 6 9 rainbow. Bet, one drops, other calls. Turn 4. I bet, get called. River K. I bet--get raised! Old lady by the way--somewhere between 90-125 years old. I look at her and shes just smiling, so I call. She turns up K2o!!"You called a 12 bet and called me down with that?!?"She goes "Son, I've been playing this game alot longer than you, and seen way too many younguns (yes, younguns) try to bluff people." you would think that if she was in fact playing the game much longer than you then she would have realized that you weren't bluffing her.

NOFX_PUNK 0 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 I get dealt AA one from the button in 10 man SnG with 6 left. There's a 4xBB raise UTG and I make it 8xBBs to go, the BB comes over the top making it 20xBBs to go. The initial raiser gets out of the way and I push all in for about 35 more BBs. The BB says 'I bet you've got aces but I have to call, I'm pot committed now.' (He has about another 40BBs in his stack as we r both big stacks.) He shows QQ and spikes a Q on the flop. He then changes his mind and says, I knew it, I just knew it, I had a feeling, but that's poker! Lol Link to post Share on other sites

pbwl11 0 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Lady sitting on my right today playing 3/6 always limps in with AA/KK/AK etc no matter what position she's in. When I'm out of a hand, she's showing me what she has as she's getting beat up down and sideways by 10 7o/Ax suited, etc.I finally ask her why she doesn't raise with the power cards, she says "I don't want to scare people out so I'll make more money."oookkaayy....A few hands later, she actually raises utg. The entire table folds. She flips her pocket Aces, throws me a look and says "See!! I won a whole 4 bucks!! That's why I'm not raising anymore!" I know I shouldn't be tapping the tank, but she was a sweet lady and I felt sorry for her. :icon_biggrin:On another note, I'd like to wish this thread a happy 10 month anniversary. It's been going on since March. Like a bad rash, it just won't go away. May it have many more! Link to post Share on other sites
XXEddie 0 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 my head hurts over this one...how the hell can you be bluffing when you can an all-in betthat's like wiping your_ass before you take a crapi thinks its because if they call they for someone think if the other person has no hand theyll just fold and forfeit their chipsfrom a home game a while backsuper-agro dude with i pod and ear plugs first kncoks out the guy who was probably the best one there when the board was AKKA and the agro guy had KK and the other dude had an Athen I raise with AQ he re-raise, I move allin, he calls with A2o (he was pot stuck)flop; xxxturn 2he stands up and shouts "I AM ON FIRE"what pissed me off was that he was so agro he got like 75% of the chips with 5 left.....then blinded his way off and ended up in 3rdthe other thing that pissed me off about him was him and his 2 friends said they have never played but it was obvious they have, which in my opinion, is a ****ed up thing to do in a 30 dollar buy in home game Link to post Share on other sites

Dubey 1,035 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 1-2 NL Live the other day.I get AK offsuit on button, 7 limpers before me, I raise to 20 to thin the field (standard pf raise is 15 in this game), guy in small blind calls, folds around to guy in middle position who pushes all-in for 60. I'd been playing with this guy for a couple hours, i knew he was steaming, and I could generally tell that his hand wasn't particularly strong. I also know that unless the guy in the small blind is trapping, he couldn't possibly call an all-in push from me with a hand that he doesn't reraise me with initially. So, I push all-in for $192 to isolate against the short stack, the guy thinks forever, and finally says "I have to call" and flips over AQ clubs. Fine, short stack flips over KQ offsuit, perfect.Anyway, guy with AQ ends up making his flush on the river. Player across the table says "great call man", and the guy with AQ nods in acknowledgement, and replies "yup, that's the advantage of playing the flush"it gets better... I normally don't smack talk donkeys, but I was in a particularly bad mood. I said, "it wasn't a great call, it was a terrible call, you put all your money in as a significant underdog", to which he replied, "uhhhh, AQ suited against AK UNsuited?..." I finished his sentence for him..., "is a huge underdog" Link to post Share on other sites
