I can't believe how quickly this great post has devolved...or maybe I can.

Anyway, great job SharkBait. Hopefully you'll get further next time so you can write more. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

nit (noun): a person who gets upset over stupid poker minutiae such as people not calling three of a kind by the "proper" set/trips nomenclature. probably kills the action of good games by talking about pot odds, 2+2, and explaining "domination" to people after taking a beat.

No, no, no. You've got it wrong. That's an anal-retentive moron. A nit is The egg or young of a parasitic insect, such as a louse. I realize these are much the same thing, but surely any experienced poker player wouldn't make this noob mistake when speaking. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I'll be sure to "correct" Daniel's poker grammar next time.

Thanks for reading all.

River card is a T. Well isn't that nice. Quad tens, the nuts. I try to figure out how much I can get from him.

That may have been the worst card in the deck for you (except another 3).

Sklansky has used the word "trips" before to describe two in your hand and one on the board, so I don't think it's a gigantic deal if someone uses them interchangeably.

[/ QUOTE ]

there is nothing incorrect about using trips that way. trips is the more general term. sets are a subset of trips.

that's the equivalent of saying that since all spades are black, all black cards are spades.
