Funny homegame story



Posted Sat Jan 17, 2004 11:28 am GMT by snoogins47
Hey all... so, i'm getting a regular smallish stakes homegame going, and thursday was the first night.

About 6 of us, .10 .25 blinds (to introduce some people to the game, we're going to raise them) and NL.

I was playing, in the end, heads up with my brother. Board had 3 7s, and some higher random cards.

I throw out the first big move I've made all night. Representing the 7 with a fairly large bet because I put him on pairing something else up.

He's debating a call for all of 2 seconds, and this fish that was with us (the third seven was on the river) decides to chime in with "God dammit, I definitely folded a f*cking winner"

My bro laughs, mucks, and says "Im gonna be classy"


Just thought you would all appreciate that.

I didn't jump the guy, I just ended up taking all his money on two big hands ;P

Why get rid of him when he's a regular donater? Hehe.

I'll bet ya'll got similar stories, considering this isn't the first time this has happened. The timing was impeccable though, not 2 seconds after I throw out my bet hehe.

just make up some house rules and this wont happen i lost 50 bucks on a hand before because of some dick doing something stupid while dealing. one of the rules should be no talking about your hand so this dosent happen again

If the someone messed up the deal it should be a re-deal, not at your expense.
