Was playing at a home game tourney couple days ago, and had QJ. Flop came Q J T. Me and one aother guy, bet call, turn is a Q. We both get it all in and he has AK. River is a J, I win!!!

Guy next to me: Hey that deck doesn't look right count it.

Guy who counts it: There are 64 cards in here wtf!!! including 6Q's and 6J's. Moral of the story, count the deck before you start to play.

Flame away.

I would reccomend doing what cardrooms do. When you put a deck away, sort it in new card order. Whenever, you bring a new deck into play, spread it face up, to make sure all the cards are there (and no extras [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]), then spread it face down to check the backs for marks. Most cardroom dealers will also count the stub after they deal the river card.
