The great thing about people who have played in very limited home games all their lives, especially if they have played quite often and have the arrogance of youth thrown in, is that they can be so very wrong about poker and yet be convinced that they are so very right. I once had a ten minute argument with a guy over whether a flush beats a straight. I finally hunted around for a pack of cards with the little "ranks of poker hands" card, and he still didn't buy it. A few weeks later I showed him a copy of Hoyle's with the poker basics. He accepted that most of the world played poker that way. He still thought he was right.
