That second one is so funny...Sometimes I see something like this, and I say "Does this player even know the hand rankings?".."Did they not know that they had the nuts?"...it really is perplexing...I'm just glad you didn't have to pay more BBs....craziness...

Lol that's a good one too. Not recognizing the stone cold mortal nuts is always vastly amusing to me.
