Poker Schmoker

Don't you draw the Queen of Diamonds, boy, she'll beat you if she's able. You know, the Queen of Hearts is always your best bet. - The Eagles, Desperado


Now would be a good time to introduce everyone to my brother.

Dearest Ko,
One-on-one showdown tonight, Went ‘all in’ with a Jack-King advantage over a Jack-10. The 10 appeared on The River!! What are the odds?!! And then there were the two 5’s, the 3rd appearing on the river as well. It’s a blue moon here in Sydney.

Something like 2%. That lucky bastard! I went in with snowmen but got beaten by 8-10 suited last night.

Ah yes. Snowmen made an appearance here too. In all fairness, we all had our moments. Full houses did it for me tonight. First time attempting no-limit, Last Man Standing. FUN.

Expensive, no? I suppose it wasn’t in ₤ so it would have been less painful.

Potentially, yes. But we only did $2 bets. Some of us are still STUDENTS. I told them you discovered my ‘tell’, (& that I have one). I felt scrutinized after that.
I also realize I commentate too much. I think I got that from you.

Use it to your advantage. Patience young Lin-akin. One cannot be a jedi in a day.

Yes Master Leong-Kenobi. Jedi is good. Rich jedi is better!

My best bit of poker advice are in the lyrics of this song. Love Koki
"You got to know when to hold 'em.... Know when to fold 'em..... Know when to walk away...... Know when to run......You can't count your money.....when you're sitting at the table.......there'll be time enough for counting......when the dealings done." Kenny Rogers
