So I visited the father's side of my family...

Because my youngest brother celebrated his 9th birthday.

And I was invited into their little poker game.

(geek info: Its just a nickle&dime poker game playing the norwegian classic 5-card draw, NL 200 bet stacked game with 1/2 bet ante and 2 rounds of betting).

So anyways I'm not in the hand when my father exposes his hand by accident in the 2nd round of betting, showing a pair of aces.

The pot is 'big' and my kid brother raises my father all-in, who then folds and then he proudly shows his own hand, a pair of kings. My father (who is a horrible poker player) asks why he did that whereupon my brother answers 'It was the only way I could win the hand'

Nine years old!

Needless to say I was proud beyond words ! :D

Lol, I love how people do that. This guy always does that in my tourny. Yesterday when dealing his ace was exposed but he chose to keep it. I ended up winning a big pot with a pair of 2's against his ace high :p
