Default Re: Home Game - Argument gets started

This is a tough spot because to give the $10 back would be somewhat admitting that they are right, so what I would do is say listen, that's not how poker works, you can't protest a result days later, but since you are still learning and new to the game, here's your $10 back, and I'd prefer if you didn't bring the big bleeding vagina to future games.


It's sad and disgusting how money effects certain people, but that's reality. Some people just can't play poker for money without pulling something like this, or holding a grudge, or something worse like trying to cheat next time.

Exactly my thoughts. By giving her the money back, you're basically saying that other people can try to pull of stuff like this in the future with you, or that you indead tried to steal the pot from her.

Also, I find it hard to believe that you can totally misread a hand like this in a heads-up situation. If you go all-in at any point before the river, you certainly know your odds and your outs, so you know what cards are good for win/loss/chop that can still come. If you had gone all-in at river - with in your case the nuts - she should be pretty foolish to "misread" her KK as KJ since any jack gives broadway. Maybe another example, like a chop pot with two pair and kicker on board, maybe, but not this...
