Wow.
I am over at a friend's house for a poker game. He and I are playing heads up .10/.20 limit.
We play for a while, and then I get up to use the bathroom or something. I come back and he has already dealt the cards - I have A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. The flop is Axx. I raise, he reraises, I call him down the rest of the way, he shows AA and takes the pot. Later, I am away from the table again. I return to an already dealt hand and have KK. Flop is AKx. We raise and reraise each other all the way down. The river is another A giving me KKKAA. He shows AA and takes the pot. Hmmm. Later, I need to use the bathroom again. I am curious about what hand I will find upon my return. I return to the table, he deals the cards, I have AKo. He raises. Hmmm. I contemplated folding just to see the look on his face, but decided I really wanted to see what was going to happen. I just called. Flop is K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. He checks, I check. Turn is a rag, he checks, I check. River is a rag, he bets, I call and show my AKo. Ready for this? He shows A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Now, here's the best part. He says "it's yours" as he sweeps his cards, my cards, and the board cards away. Me: "Look again" as I spread the cards back out. Him: "What?" Me: "Look at the board." Him: "Oh, I had a flush." Me: "Look again, dude." Comments? [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] |

He's a cheat [/ QUOTE ] Duh. [ QUOTE ] and you're a dope? [/ QUOTE ] It was .10/.20 limit. It was worth the $4 or whatever it was for me to find out how far he would take it. |

Did you say anything to this guy? [/ QUOTE ] Well, the way I played my AKo was partly so that he would know that I knew. I knew that he knew that I knew when he swept away his royal. I wanted to see what he would say or do. He acted like he didn't realize what he had, then he acted like he thought I was messing with him and that those weren't really what the board cards were. As I was leaving, I said something like "I learned a lot tonight about the way you play." |

Re: Wow.

And not calling him on it the first, second, or third time makes you ridiculously slow, ridiculously benevolent, or ridiculously trusting. I, on the other hand, would be ridiculously angry. -T |

I think you may want to go to the doctor and have your bladder checked.

[/ QUOTE ] Sounds good, but wouldn't be worth it IMO. [ QUOTE ] And not calling him on it the first, second, or third time makes you ridiculously slow, ridiculously benevolent, or ridiculously trusting. [/ QUOTE ] Ridiculously curious, perhaps. I wanted to see how far he would try to push it, and at .10/.20, I decided it was worth it for me to find out. [ QUOTE ] I, on the other hand, would be ridiculously angry. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, I'm irritated, though I'm more like "wtf?" than I am angry, given the facts that: - it's a friend of mine - it was obvious what he was doing - he did it repeatedly - it was frickin .10/.20 |
