The old rock got angry at me (aka \"You called with a GUTSHOT??!?\")
I was playing my 8/16 casino game around here. I've been pretty cold card wise, and I pick up J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T:heart in the BB (9 handed). The Old Rock (who happens to be a prop player) raises UTG, 4 cold callers, SB calls, I call. Flop comes AK4r, he bets, 4 callers, I call. Turn brings a brick, he bets, 3 callers, I call. River brings my Q giving me the nuts. I check, he bets, 2 callers, I raise, he calls, 2 callers. He turns over AA and I show my nuts.
After I take down the pot, he looks at the board and my cards. "You called me with a GUTSHOT? A GUTSHOT!?!? I can understand an open ended but a GUTSHOT?" Needless to say he looks disgusted and I guess I feel a little bad but it was a huge pot and I was happy. So I said "I got lucky" and continued stacking my chips. After that point he would pay special attention to everything I did. He even isolated me once or twice when I raised in MP...and essentially raised the stakes of the game. He started playing back at me...and although I ended the day up a ton, I was making less money in the end when he started to play back at me, and it sucked. WTF was I supposed to do? Fold when I was getting like 20:1 on my call to the nuts? |

I just don't understand these guys. I'm sure he's a winner since the games are so incredibly terrible live...but seriously, if he ever folds his GUTSHOT!?!? getting 20:1 that says a lot.

Tell him "I'm sorry, I just sorta learned from T.V.". That will make him happy.

I love when the rocks sit in with the young guns at the MGM 4-8, 6-12, and 10-20 games. Makes for some good times in the box... I've seen rocks/older players get on the table, and while waiting for the BB to post, they witness all the "live straddles", 3, 4, and 5 betting with trash, etc... and they get right up from the table without even playing a hand... Then I'll joke to the players "now look what you did...you scared the [censored] out of that guy!" Usually brings a laugh to the group...

"I got lucky," is the perfect response. Act humble and contrite. Be aware that he may then be "out" for you and adjust accordingly.

When he starts to give you [censored] move to his left and start straddling his blind.
