A baby is higher EV than $330.

For sure. A healthy baby's organs can fetch up to $50,000 on the black market.

Is that in 1954 dollars?

Sorry, you're right. I fixed my post.

Babies are -EV. If you don't believe me, ask my dad.

No, a player thinking he has a tough decision in a FREEROLL would be a degenerate.

$300 still a lot of money to some of us.

$300 is nothing compared to the $100's of thousands it costs to raise a child to 18

This is why you should not go with your wife to a casino. Always complaining.

If the wife was that close to labor, its bad enough he was in a pokerroom. She can have liftoff at any time so as a husband he needs to be ready to take her to the hospital on que. Plus the sheer fact she was that close to labor and in a casino also is a bad sign.

We were wondering the same thing because you aren't supposed to fly during the third trimester. Apparently she was very early and her water just broke while she was standing 4 feet from us. She looked very uncomfortable and I felt very bad for her. The guy kept coming over to kiss her on the cheek saying it will be OK, then looking at his holecards, folding, then running around to ask for the staff's help.

In the pre-cellphone days, I was carrying a rented beeper when my wife was due.

When that beeper went off to announce the imminent delivery of our second child, I was in a $4-8 game at the Luxor. Decided to play until my blind came around. Won a huge pot UTG. Told the dealer to deal around me, and started racking up.

Someone asked, "You're gonna leave right after winning that huge pot?"

"Yup. Gotta go, my wife's having a baby."

Everyone laughed.

"No, really, my wife really is having a baby."

They didn't believe me. They were convinced I was pulling the old hit and run.

You don't know my wife. When she says, "Time to go to the hospital," you're lucky if you see crowning within 24 hours.
