My friends and I play NL holdem tournaments at home a lot. The stakes are so small, you see a lot of stuff that would never happen in a 'real' game. Not just terrible play, but also people taunting eachother, talking about their cards while the hand is being played, etc. Mostly just everyone trying to have a good time.
Anyway, in this hand I'm in the SB with 44. It's folded to the Button who has a very small stack. Only 4 or 5 times the BB. I have the largest stack, the BB's stack is about a third of mine. The button just limps in. I raise all in. BB folds. The Button thinks and thinks. I kind of want him to call, so I offer to show him one of my cards. Of course he says that's fine. I turn over 4d. He thinks for another couple of seconds and... MUCKS!
I asked what I would have had to show him in order for him to call. He said a 2 and everyone had a good laugh.
Anyone else got any funny stories?
