This week in poker
We had many poker games this week :) It was SO MUCH FUN! Ok so Friday nights game consisted of: You-can't-take-my-pinkies, Guess-who-forgot-to-ante-up? , You're-not-doing-that-right and You-should-be-a-dealer (yup that's me!). We played a few different versions of poker this time from Texas Hold'em to Chicago to Fiery Cross. Let's just say that You're-not-doing-that-right is only good at playing Texas Hold'em! We played Chicago for a few hands and she lost ALL HER CHIPS! In a stroke of kindness- You-can't-take-my-pinkies actually gave her some chips! Can you believe it!!?? But in the end You're-not-doing-that-right lost all her chips, again- and You-can't-take-my-pinkies had to go home. Guess-who-forgot-to-ante-up? was doing fantastic. She had stacks of chips left and when we counted out...Surpassed even me! I was playing pretty good..I had my original stack of chips, and was playing off my winnings for a few hours :) Even Resident-Advisor congratulated me! So that was Friday.
On Saturday we had a surprise visitor from Kitchener arrive :) She's been wanting to play for a while. We divvy up the chips, and get crackin' right after dinner! Players tonight were: Guess-who-forgot-to-ante-up?, You-can't-take-my-pinkies, Resident-Advisor, the new girl who's name is Closet-poker-shark and me, You-should-be-a-dealer. We played Chicago, Fiery Cross, Texas Hold'em (and Indian Sign- which I'll comment on later)!! Well- Closet-poker-shark tried to act like she didn't know what she was doing- Resident-Advisor would help her out every few hands- and then she started slamming down flushes and straights like there was no tomorrow. It was full house here and three of a kinds there! I was starting to think that her and Resident-Advisor were in cahoots (is that how you spell that?) Especially after this one round where we were betting like $20 and $35 PER ROUND we all had like $120 in the pot for this one hand...and Closet-poker-shark and Guess-who-forgot-to-ante-up? shared the win. I wanted to cry! You-can't-take-my-pinkies left after that round...she actually was crying!! Ahh-don't-bug-me and Snacks-a-lot had to take her home to comfort her! We played for another couple of hours till it was well past midnight and just Closet-poker-shark and I were left. That's when the real fun began- we started to play Indian Sign. We made the opening ante $2 and before we even got our card, we started betting blind. The pot was at a minimum of $20 for each hand. Wins were evenly distributed for the first part, then they started to lean heavily my way, let's just say, by the time we ended the game..I had ALL the chips :) Oh ya...Victory for me :) That was Saturday.
Sunday we only had time for a few hours of play! After the marathon we had going this week, it was such a tease! Closet-poker-shark and I started with some Indian Sign, where she must have learned some mystical powers in her sleep, because she wiped me clean. Then we reset the chips when You-can't-take-my-pinkies arrived and tried to teach her how to play, but she's way too analytical to play that game. She can't bet blind- she just thinks it's stupid! Closet-poker-shark and I were having quite the laugh trying to convince her to raise the blind. You-should-be-the-dealer was out pretty damn fast (almost embarrassingly so!) and I watched the other two play for a bit. You-can't-take-my-pinkies lost. BIG TIME! So big in fact that she owed Closet-poker-shark just over $200. Proof is in the picture ;)
