Location: Lucky Chances
Stakes $9/$18
Players: Loose, but aggressive and some tricky. Probably not the best game.
I'm in MP and have my cards in my hand as the dealer hands them out. I never look at them before it's my turn. There's a Korean in the big blind and the dealer motions for him to do something, but he's checking out his cards and not listening to what the dealer is saying. He tries to put out 6 $3 chips in an attempt to raise as he thinks he's UTG, but actually he's last to act and didn't put out his big blind yet! The dealer just wanted him to put out his blind. Anyway, everyone picks up on this and folds to me. I look down in my hole cards:
A /images/graemlins/spade.gifJ /images/graemlins/club.gif
I muck it quite happily as it is a hand I'd normally come in with a raise for. /images/graemlins/cool.gif
Anyhow, he wins the small blind of $2 ($1 goes to the jackpot) and the next hand ensues /images/graemlins/smirk.gif.
Either it was the biggest blunder he could make or the best defense to blind stealing ever conceived.
