Re: He called you with Jack high? Post it in here! (Designated NC Thr
2/4 live in AC. This guy sits down at the table, maybe his first hand.
Board on the river:
2TK2A
The new guy and a conservative player get into a raising war. Keep in mind, this is 2/4. By the time they get up to about $30 per person, the new guy says, "If you've got the boat..." and raises again.
They get up to around $50 per person. At this point, the new guy is getting confused about the raising, having to ask how much it is to raise. Everyone at the table is laughing. Had the dealer allowed it, the new guy would have just pushed all his chips in to circumvent the raise-raise action. Finally, new guy calls, which he later says is only because everyone was laughing at him so he figured something was up, and he was getting confused with all the raising.
Conservative guy, obviously, shows 22 for quads. New guy shows QJ for the nut straight. He justifies himself by saying, "I was new to the table. I thought maybe he was just trying to make a move on the new guy." Quads never entered his mind. "I was thinking, 'What, did he call with K2?'"
The rest of the night was spent laughing about that hand. Every new person that sat down: "Be careful! At this table, straights beat four-of-a-kind." 4-flush on the board, "I'm not worried, I've got a straight." Good times... good times.
