Amusing Story
I'm playing 1/2 hold'em at Hard Rock in Florida. This total beginner sits down with about $20 and announces to the table that we all need to "help him figure this game out." On the first hand, the flop comes K 8 3 rainbow. Someone bets and the beginner is the only caller. The turn pairs the 8. Again, a bet and he calls. The river is a 4, with no flush possible on the board. Before the other player even has a chance to bet, the beginner flips over his cards, a 52s, and looks at the dealer to see if he won. The dealer says "Sorry buddy, one more round of betting" as his opponent throws a final bet into the pot almost as a joke. Surprisingly, the guy starts pondering a call!
This guy is sitting here with the worst possible hand and is seriously considering a call. I can't help myself: "What do you think he has, man?" The opponent shoots me a glare and I shut up, but even the dealer tells him: "Man, you better fold that hand." After another 10 seconds, the beginner reluctantly throws his $2 in the pot, and the table erupts in laughter. Maybe this isn't the right forum for the story, but I thought it was notable, worth sharing.

Re: Amusing Story
Sorry, it's hard to read my post, but the river was a 4. so he was playin 88K54 as his final hand, the worst hand possible. I guess he was hoping for a chop....

Re: Amusing Story
Know what's more amusing? I held QJ on AKT flop. Turn J, river Q. That's way more amusing than this story.

how many BB did this guy drop over the night? My guess is about 10. I can't see him sticking around after the first round of ridicule [/ QUOTE ] or likely ever playing again damn don't tap the aquarium, or in this case don't take a sledgehammer to it
