Poker In The Garden--very Interesting


Recommended Posts

12.55pm yesterday, the weather was good, the sun was shining, the birds were singing.Ron and me were sitting in the garden waiting for Ted and Jim Smith.They were a couple of Scottish goons in charge of the protection racket up here, they had been forced into playing in the game of their lives, the game which should we win would mean us taking over their jobs. And jobs worth £5 million a year.Ron sat opposite me, we were wearing matching suits, Hugo Boss of course, and our trilby hats. Ron was puffing on a cigar and drinking from a big bottle of Brandy, I was smoking a Benson and swigging lager.I saw a movement out of the corner of my eye, I looked round and there they stood."Alright Jocks?" I sneered, "Wanna drink?""Aye, Whisky Kray, and no ice" Jim saidI got up to get them it, winking at Ron who sat staring at them, making them scared and uncomfortable.I brought a litre bottle of Glenmorangie back and 2 glasses and sat down."Ok Jocks, you know the stakes, we each have 2000 in chips, blinds start at 25/50, they double every 20 minutes, any questions?" I asked"No Kray, no funny business, lets see the cards" Jim saidI showed them all the sealed packs we`d had made up and they seemed satisfied."Pick a pack you nonce" I saidHe picked the 3rd one, I got rid of the cellophane and dealt them out.Our system of marking was a very subtle mark on the back, the closer the mark to the top right corner the higher the value in cards.After the first few hands Ron got to be dealer, he dealt them out and I saw he dealt Ted Smith a pocket pair, marks in the bottom left, so a pair of 2s.I was dealt Jh9h by Ron, with my bb posted I was ready to call Teds raise and see what developed.Sure enough Ted said "Raise to 200", Ron folded, Jim folded I called.Flop was a dream for me 9hAd4s. I checked and Ted said "700""Big bet Jock, you caught that ace?" I saidHe just stared, so I started with my act, "I`ll call to keep you honest" I saidRon dealt the turn card 4c.I checked again and Ted said "All in", I called immediately showing my cards."Jesus Christ Kray, you fish, call with that rubbish" shouted Ted and he rolled over his 2s.Ron dealt the river Ks and it was down to 3.I could see Jim was starting to sweat, the game wasn`t going good for him now."Oh dear lads, looks like you won`t have a business soon" Ron saidI leant back in my chair and laughed heartily at this, "Good one bruv, what a pair of stupid Jocks" I said.Blinds went up to the next level and Jim was starting to shake at the next pair of cards he got dealt, he picked them up quick from the table but not quick enough to hide from me that he had been dealt Queens.I was in the BB again with K2 off suit, lets see what happens this time I thought.Jim decided to try and trap with his Queens and just called my blind, Ron called and I checked.Jim dealt the cards 6c2s2c. Oh dear Jim this isn`t looking good I was thinking.Ron checked, I checked, Jim nearly shouted "Make it 500"Ron folded quickly and I looked Jim up and down, I could see the sweat pouring down his fat face, also his eyebrows were twitching."You bluffing Smith?" I asked, "Well I`ll call"Jim dealt the next card 2h.I checked again, Jim shouted "All in, you better fold Kray"I laughed and sat back in my chair, I was having fun at slowrolling this big ponce.After a minute I said "Well I guess I best call" and rolled over my quads.Jim swore and showed his worthless full house, the river was dealt and I sat back and winked at Ron.By now the Smith brothers were shaking and on the edge of tears."Its an easy game ain`t it bruv?" I said to Ron"Yeah bruv deffo" he replied"Oh you two" I said to Jim and Ted, they looked at me with teary eyes, "We`ll be round friday to take your lists, don`t try anything on or you`ll be flying off the Forth Bridge on saturday"I grabbed my beer glass and took a swig, "Yeah Ron" I said, "We now own Scotland"....
