Some rules of poker



Posted Fri Apr 07, 2006 9:33 am GMT by JewishPete
1.) Pocket 3's are the absolute best starting hand...This hand will hit a set on the flop 97% of the time against the 4 callers in front holding AA, KK, QQ and JJ respectively...unless of course, YOU are holding the pocket 3's

2.) It is mutually understood that, as poker players, when we are dealt KK in late position with two callers that the flop will show atleast 2 aces, every time.

3.) As a Hold em' player, you recognize that when you hold JJ with 3 others in the pot, that the board will ALWAYS come out the same way...the obvious QKA

4.) If you are lucky enough to hold a suited AK your board will 90% of the time, display 4,5,6,7, 9

5.) 7-2o is obviously superior to Pocket Aces in every situation (again, as long as you have the pocket aces)

Any two random cards i.e. T6o will invariably catch a 4-straight or 4-flush on the board to crack your AA.

If you flop a straight, your opponent will have two pair and boat on the turn or river.

Those are the two that I can think of at the moment.

Another...if you have 44 and the flop is 4 6 J, someone else will be holding 66.

Oh no wait...you both missed one.

If your playing AA or KK in a tourney and push you will get called by a 102o which will then catch 2 more 10s and one more 2 for a boat. Unless you hold the 102o. Then the person playing it will say something stupid like I always play a Doyle and win with it. It is the best starting hand in poker.

Heres one...
You are holding AA and raise PF. You are called by somone holding 47o, and QJ suited. WHO WILL WIN THE POT?.................................................
Thats correct!! Great job!! You know your bad beats! 47o will indeed piss on the flush draw and crap on your aces by the river with a FULL HOUSE!!!
Thank you for playimg please collect your prize at the door!!!!

If you're all-in preflop with AA and your opponent has KK the board will come K x x A K.

If at the bubble in a tourney you get dealt AA and push, big stack will call with any two cards and will catch at least two pair and you will be bubble boy.
