Last night UTG raises my BB. It gets folded to me and as he was a new player and we were separated by the dealer I stretched around to get a look at him. He looks me in the eye and says "I'm not stealing". I look at my cards and have 7,10o. As I'm folding I say "I know you're not". He shows me QQ. I couldn't believe it. Wouldn't he want some action with that hand!

or, no such thing as bad cards, only bad flops!

Favorite things to hear
"I missed"
"Good Call"

Most amusing/Favorite lines
"The pots too big...I raise"
"I was waiting till' the shuffle to check-raise you"
"I'm full...Hearts full of Spades"
"Whats he got? His favorite hand Queen-[censored]" (Guy took down three consecutive pots with Q7o, Q2o and Q9o)
"They'll never see this one coming" (said as a player was mock-sneaking the 9c2h out of the deck prior to a new dealer coming in)

Not related directly to poker but I thought it was funny. We were talking about lifestyles and whether poker players were lazy or something like that and a guy says about his best friend the poker player "He's so lazy he married a woman with 4 kids!". Well, myabe you had to be there but it made me laugh.

M2d's post reminds me of the time that Bob Morgan called me on my cell phone while in the middle of a hand. When I answered the phone, I said "hold on Bob, I'm in the middle of a hand" and he said "RAISE BABE". I put the phone on my lap, looked at my hand to find 2 Queens and I said "RAISE". Bob stayed on the line till the hand was over, and I told him that I raised and had indeed won the hand. He was delighted, of course. LGPG, Babe [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img]

At Mirage today, there was a guy with white hair who said something I've never heard before. He called a raise btf in one of the blinds and was heads up. When the flop came, he said: "I check, but if you bet, I raise" [img]/forums/images/icons/confused.gif[/img] His opponent obliged him and he then did in fact raise. On the turn, he said the same thing...."I check but if you bet I will raise". Once again, his opponent obliged him [img]/forums/images/icons/crazy.gif[/img] On the river, he just bet out and his opponent obliged his call without a word spoken. The white haired guy had top two and took down the pot. Can't say he didn't give fair warning. [img]/forums/images/icons/smirk.gif[/img] LGPG, Babe [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img]
