Default Re: How are you doing at the tables (Poker Thread)

Played my hand correctly last Sunday but blew it overall in a 8/16 game.

A-7 off suit (I dumped the hand preflop)

2 players left

Flop comes A-A-6

Both players check

Turn was the case Ace

Bet & called by 2 remaining players

River rainbow deuce

Bet with no call. Winner exposed her hand. J-J

By throwing my hand away, I gave up 50% of the Jackpot.



(and no I never said a word) LOL

ouch!!!! but it was the right thing to do.

Hit one in Biloxi for 6k last year.

First hand, JJ. on a 1/2 nl (100-300 buy in, I'm in for 2)

Flop JJx, I check, one bet for 10, I call

Turn A, I check, other player checks.

River is a blank, I pot bet for 40, other guy ($500 stack) goes all in with Aces full. I instacall.

Guy is cussing till the other players tell him he just won $12k.

I'm a little confused! I assume that you are referring to a bad beat of some kind. If that's the case, every bad beat, that I have ever seen, requires that both cards in your hand must play. You would have had 4 Aces, however, only one card in your hand would play!

Kelly... that story my friend makes you want to play bad poker! LOL. I'm sure that was doh moment. Sorry to hear the session didn't go so well. I hope you didn't have your mind set on that Bad Beat jackpot.

Johnny, both of kelly's cards would have played on the board A A A 6 2. His 7 is the kicker for quad A's.

No! That's not the way it works in any casino I've ever played in, and I've been playing in them for over 40 years. Both cards must play, and not as a kicker! With 4 of a kind, you must have two of them in your hand! With any five card hand, it's obvious that both cards in your hand must be part of the actual winning hand.

Actually it is the way its played. In Gardena CA casinos anyways.

The quads would constitute 4 cards and the 7 (since it's higher than any other card on the board not already being played) becomes the kicker.
So, in actuality, both hole cards are playing for the 5 card hand.

Now I know every casino sets their own rules, but in Southern CA many card casinos have that ruling.

If you say that's the way it is in CA., I cannot dispute that. The last time I played in a Poker Room in CA., was over 15 years ago, and there were no bad beat or high hand jackpots back then.
