I got invited by a friend to join a poker game tonite. I am not the best nor the worst at the game, but all night long I kept losing... $20 bills after $20... I was down by already $60 and just tried to hang in there so I could eventually break it even. There were about 11 people at the table, and we were playing that type of poker where you hold 2 cards and try to match them with 5 cards on the table.

On that particular hand, the first 3 cards that we drawn were Queen, Jack and 8 of Diamond. All of sudden everyone was trying to buy a flush and bet like crazy, at all round. There was like 200 on the table already when the 5th card drawn is another Diamond. Two of the players started to bet all their money... all in. about 50 each person... one of them was holding the ace of diamond and the other one the king of diamond. I just called... flipped a 10 and 9 of diamond, raffled 300 and kicked two players out.

Oh this is some addicting shit...
but at the end, my girl friend ended up losing all the money I won =(

 

uh, 11ppl at a table? how many decks you playin with.

 

texas holdum > *

 

only one...

why? everyone holds 2 cards, 5 cards on the table, and 3 burned... wahh... don't tell me you only have 32 cards per deck!

 

eh, normally we limit to 8players / table. too much confusion w/more. and we dont normally play no-limit.. 2/4 or 3/6 is sufficient. or no limit w/buy in, not straight money.

 

oh wait... you were playing texas holdum... ....

 

i thought the hold 'em flop was only 3cards, not the 5cards he was talkin bout.

 

you had a straight flush on the flop and you just called the whole way?
man you could have gotten more money out of that, especially the guy with the ack-diamond....but then if they were raising eachother then its cool....ohh well's i wish i could ever get a hand like that

 

in holdum there is 5 cards onm the table.. but max hand is 5 cards with yer 2... so its best 5 out of 7

 

oh yah, ur right. its too late :happysad: the flop is 3, then theres two cards after that.
