Pocker Religion

Thursday, Jan 4, 2007

My father was and still is obsessed with pocker religion, going to church at least three times per week. Mind you, that I was inside Binion's Horseshoe 12-15 hours a day for six straight weeks, which gave me a very unique window into the depths to which humanity falls, when driven to extremes. I may have even made it on this online pocker forum years ago. He is built for the event (thin and wiry), and he's got youth on his side. "Which do you want first?"

Red Penny, her online pocker gun tracking left and right, screams, "Down! "So," I tell her, "the good news is that the poisoned punch bowl is located in the Pocker Room." "Nice hand," Pete commented, "Even nicer trap."

Especially Kings. Of course, second online pocker place is significantly more than third and first is significantly more than second. I don't ever remember seeing a standard set of playing cards at home. So, not all straights are equal, and in fact, the best card you can hold is an inside online pocker rank when both extreme ends of the straight are already online pocker present. You're thirsty. I had Melissa Hayden, who I had read extensively about to my immediate left and Jack Keller two more seats further to my left. Is there a way you can get the call and not be raised if he's made three Aces.

I called thinking he had at best 1 big pair, while I had a chance to catch a wrap around straight draw or flush draw or two pair, fairly inexpensively. Now she was telling me how bad it was that I went to Evansville. So today was my last online pocker tournament event at the WPO. I won't get into a discussion about how big a factor luck is in our every day lives, but certainly luck plays a major role in poker.

She looks and smiles. The World Heavyweight Championship Of Online Pocker's Final Table was held last Saturday night in the 15,000-seat Majestic Arena. You will frequently hear something like, "Take the pot. The only tournament I went deep in was the HORSE event, which is Hold-em, Omaha 8, Razz, Stud, and Stud. This can happen because someone is simply seeing too many flops or possibly because you think that he also suspects the initial raiser to be doing so without premium hands. Now the flop comes Th 8h 4s. I want you to think about that, because it underscores a powerful point. The drink orders go clockwise by the seat number and are written in shorthand. I was really pumped. You play good."
