Local Poker Game Robbed...
I understand through the grapevine that there may have been an armed robbery of a local poker game. Details are somewhat sketchy and this post is not to solicit more information but to ask for those of you who are participating in local games to be very careful.
Good luck.
Good luck.

Top 8 "Stupid" Ways to Check Out
Eighth Place In Detroit , a 41-year-old man got stuck and drowned in two feet of water after squeezing head first through an 18-inch-wide sewer grate to retrieve his car keys.
Seventh Place A 49-year-old San Francisco stockbroker, who 'totally zoned when he ran,' accidentally, jogged off a 100-foot high cliff on his daily run.
Sixth Place While at the beach, Daniel Jones, 21, dug an 8 foot hole for protection from the wind and had been sitting in a beach chair at the bottom when it collapsed, burying him beneath 5 feet of sand. People on the beach used their hands and shovels trying to get him out but could not reach him. It took rescue workers using heavy equipment almost an hour to free him. Jones was pronounced dead at a hospital.
Fifth Place Santiago Alvarado, 24, was killed as he fell through the ceiling of a bicycle shop he was burglarizing. Death was caused when the long flashlight he had placed in his mouth to keep his hands free rammed into the base of his skull as he hit the floor.
Fourth Place Sylvester Briddell, Jr., 26, was killed as he won a bet with friends who said he would not put a revolver loaded with four bullets into his mouth and pull the trigger.
Third Place After stepping around a marked police patrol car parked at the front door, a man walked into H&J Leather & Firearms intent on robbing the store. The shop was full of customers and a uniformed officer was standing at the counter. Upon seeing the officer, the would-be robber announced a hold-up, and fired a few wild shots from a target pistol. The officer and a clerk promptly returned fire, and several customers also drew their guns and fired. Paramedics pronounced the robber dead at the scene. Crime sc ene investigators located 47 expended cartridge cases in the shop. The subsequent autopsy revealed 23 gunshot wounds. Ballistics identified rounds from 7 different weapons. No one else was hurt.
HONORABLE MENTION Paul Stiller, 47, and his wife Bonnie were bored just driving around at 2 A.M. so they lit a quarter stick of dynamite to toss out the window to see what would happen. Apparently they failed to notice the window was closed.
RUNNER UP Kerry Bingham had been drinking with several friends when one of them said they knew a person who had bungee-jumped from a local bridge in the middle of traffic. The conversation grew more heated and at least 10 men trooped along the walkway of the bridge at 4:30 AM. Upon arrival at the midpoint of the bridge they discovered that no one had brought a bungee rope. Bingham, who had continued drinking, volunteered and pointed out that a coil of lineman's cable, lay near by. They secured one end around Bingham's leg and then tied the other to the bridge. His fall lasted 40 feet before the cable tightened and tore his foot off at the ankle. He miraculously survived his fall into the icy water and was rescued by two nearby fishermen. Bingham's foot was never located.
AND THE WINNER IS... Zookeeper Friedrich Riesfeldt ( Paderborn, Germany ) fed his constipated elephant 22 doses of animal laxative and more than a bushel of berries, figs and prunes before the plugged-up pachyderm finally got relief. Investigators say ill-fated Friedrich, 46, was attempting to give the ailing elephant an olive oil enema when the relieved beast unloaded. The sheer force of the elephant's unexpected defecation knocked Mr. Riesfeldt to the ground where he struck his head on a rock as the elephant continued to evacuate 200 pounds of dung on top of him.
It seems to be just one of those freak accidents that proves... 'Shit happens'.

Saturday Night Juice...
Well, it was a juicy night at the Juice's Saturday.... We had two guys cash out early for a lot... did I say a lot? It was a lot -AND- there was still plenty of chips on the table. Akash made a couple of big hands right as he was cashing out... In one, the flop was 4x, 3x, 3x and I thought that I was slow-playing my 3's full of 4's boat and checked in early position and nobody raised. The turn was a King and I lead out with a $100 bet and the Juice raised it to $400. Akash raised it to $1,000 and I couldn't believe it but I folded. They got all their chips in on the river - Akash had Kings full and the Juice showed 4's full.... Wow! And that sure brought home for me that old saying about it is better to win a small pot than to lose a big one... Because if the Juice bets the flop, I insta-call and Akash -probably- goes away and the Juice ends up with a scooper. I wouldn't have definitely called and my low draw was counterfeited on the river.
I do believe that the big hand of the night came very late. There were three of us feeling froggy....
I held:
The flop was:
From early position, Bart lead out with $150 into about $200 pot. Eli quickly called and I called with top 2 and a gut shot.
The turn was pretty sweet....
Bart lead out with a $400 bet and Eli raised it to $1000. I thought for a moment about slow-playing it, but decided to hopefully push out any King with a higher boat draw... I had Bart covered and Eli had about $20-$30 more my $5200 re-raise.
Bart made a great lay-down and quickly folded his 10's full of Kings boat and Eli struggled for several minutes trying to determine if his Kings full of 6's was any good, before he made the call. The river was a brick and I scooped one of the largest pots of the night and one of the biggest for me in quite some time.
The river:
So.. let the suck outs begin!

Oh No, There Goes Tokyo…
…Go, go, Quadzilla! Yep, this lizard can swallow big boats with a single gulp, and he proved it again Tuesday night.
About, oh, 27 years ago (or so it seems) Charles had an operation on his, um, nether regions, and we’ve been hearing about the pain he’s in ever since. I’ve been telling him that it’s nothing compared to the pain he’ll be feeling at the poker table, but you how stubborn old people can be…
After a pretty juicy night of 5/10 NLO8 (Omaha High/Low – 8 or Better), the crowd thinned down to just three of us – Charles, Bill and me. When we get down to four or less we normally move to 5/10 Omaha (High Only). So that’s what we’re playing when I look down at 3-5-5-6 (suits are unimportant), and we see a flop of Q-5-4.
I like the flop, of course, as I have middle set and an open-end straight draw. Charles and I both have fairly deep stacks, and I have him covered. I not sure I remember the exact bet amounts, but I believe Charles raises the pot (already sweetened by a straddle) to $150. I raise to $400, and Charles moves in for an additional $1,300-1,400 or so.
You can bet your first-born child that the only thing Charles is doing this with is top set. If all I have is the one-outer fives, it's a pretty easy laydown. The open-end gives me an additional eight outs, however, so assuming he has queens, I’m pretty much right at a 2:1 dog. Normally these decisions, for me, are mostly driven by the math, and the $900 or so in the pot means I’m not getting the right price. Buuuuuut, I've been running really well lately - it’s been a good night and a great few months. I'm in the mood to gamble a bit, and I decide to give him some action and call. He immediately grimaces and says that he didn’t want a call.
He turns over something like Q-Q-10-9, and we strap ourselves in for a quick, exciting ride around the turn and down the river. The river ends up being a bit anticlimactic, as Mikey (our dealer) brings forth the intense pain on the turn in the form of the case 5! The river brings a harmless 10 (what, no case queen?!) and I rake in all of his chippies.
I must admit to being a bit disappointed, as initially Charles was too much in shock for the usual whining about how unlucky he is, how I must have been born with a horseshoe up my butt, etc. Hearing a losing player carp, bitch and groan is usually more rewarding to me than the money, and here I was about to lose out on the best part of sucking out on someone. He finally threw me a small bone, however, when he started sniveling about the one-outer. As I pointed out that it was a nine-outer, he threw out the instant classic “You keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better” and kept whining about the one-outer.
It wasn’t quite as classic as his line from a couple weeks ago, when the board showed a flush on the river, and he tried (unsuccessfully, surprisingly) to bluff at it with the “Nekkid queen.” The whole table was rolling on the floor, and he was looking around with that look like “What?” Charles scared us all when he told us a couple weeks ago that he was going to take a break from the game for a while. Charles, I’m glad you changed your mind, ‘cause I’d hate to have to go out and get another job!
See ya at the tables…

OK, OK... the other Boat! Well, it was a boat in the beginning...
The Turlinator is a guy that loves to, in my opinion, overplay pocket Aces in Omaha 8. I like to get them, but I can throw them away if the flop completely misses them or I get a read on someone that they flopped a monster against them. I tell you that to tell you when I took my hand:
and this flop hit....
and this flop hit....
and the Turlinator led out with a bet of $100. I could have just as easily put him on pocket Aces as for him to have a Queen. So when I slow-played my Kings-full boat to the turn...
I was having a little trouble actually deciding on whether the Turlinator had Queens full of Aces or Aces full of Queens ESPECIALLY when he led out almost immediately with a $250 bet. Since everyone folded, I wanted to let him try to run me out... although I had pretty much already decided that if he had Aces full, he was probably going to get paid. And remember, this is Omaha 8 so even if he had the Aces full boat, there were still some suck outs to be had.... the fourth King and of course, the royal flush....
But when the river came... I was almost expecting an the case-Ace, but it was the case King.
Turlinator checks to which I determined that there would be a charge to see the quads, so I bet $500 and after a short-period of time (we watched the third Pirates of the Caribbean and the first half of Gladiator while we were waiting for him to decide), he called. I turned over the bad news and he mucked his Queens-full boat. He whimpered a little, but Rick told him that he was behind the whole way which seemed to make him feel better.
Yep.. let the suck outs begin!

Flopped the Big Boat Twice...
Yeppirs... Saturday night with the Juice was pretty good to me for a change. I flopped the big boat twice and didn't lose to quads... you've got it to love when that happens. I'll tell you about the one which had the biggest pot....
It was pretty late and we were down to about 7 players at the usual $5/$10 No Limit Omaha 8 game with the Juice. Here's the way the cards landed....
I was in late position and I believe that Eli was first to act and Ronnie was sitting between between Eli and me. There was the normal $25 straddle and I believe that everyone was in this hand.
My hand:
The flop:
More normal poker players would get excited about flopping the top boat but recently it has meant to me that I was about to lose all my chips to quads. Yes, even the Juice has pointed out that I have a somewhat negative attitude of late.... I believe that if I ventured into a dark room, I would probably develop (you know, I'm so "negative")....
At any rate, there are a couple of checks and Eli bets about $90 or so, Ronnie smooth calls... Had Ronnie folded, I don't know what I would have done. I put Eli on at least 1 eight, but if Ronnie called that means he had an eight and maybe 2 eights and Eli might be betting with nothing. How's that for reading your opponent! So I give it a moment and I call.
The turn:
Again, most people wouldn't really be bothered by the queen, but my luck has been so bad recently that Eli might have been betting with an over-pair and hit his 2-outer. Again, he bets... this $300 and Ronnie calls. In retrospect, I should have slow-played one more card as it is very likely that Ronnie would have called Eli's bet on the river too, but I couldn't wait... I pushed all in for a little over $1100. Eli struggles with it for a moment and makes the call. Ronnie folds.
The River:
As it turned out, Eli and Ronnie were trying to make and eights-full-of-anything-boat and Eli did make 8's full of 3's on the river, but to no avail as my 10's full of 8's held up and I scooped a very nice pot.

That's Odd(s)....
First of all, if it's Omaha 8, the laws of mathematics go out the window depending on WHO you are sitting with at the table. There's just a couple of guys in the area that must perform oral sex on the leprechauns before and after every session because it is without question, they are the luckiest people on the planet.
So, my first rule for determining how many outs you have, if you are playing at the table with these guys, calculate the best and smartest out and GET OUT! If there is a card that will give them the NUT and you the second nut, it'll come. If you have the "dead" low with the two cards to come, you will be counterfeited into oblivion. If you do flop the nuts with a straight, their flush will come. If you flop the nut flush, they'll hit their shitty two pair to make a boat while trying to get the low or even better, they'll hit their one outer to make a straight flush. If you flop middle or bottom set, the boat will get there, but it'll be your demise. You'll flop a set of queens and they flop two pair Kings & Sevens and their King will pair.
So, go to the atm, don't play with the these pricks.... just take your money home and burn it in the fireplace.... not only will it warm the cockles of your heart, but just think about those jerks huddled in a small group, sweating their asses off, sucking out on each other.
Please... let the suck outs stop! LOL.
