Re: The Worst Strategy You\'ve Overheard at a Table
Drunkern 2/4 at Gold Coast (the only kind of 2/4 at Gold Coast)
I raise preflop with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], bet the two-[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] jack-high flop, bet the blank turn, and bet when I river a king. Middle-aged woman (who didn't completely suck) calls me down the whole way with JT for one pair. I table my hand and she rolls her eyes and lets out an audible disgusted groan.
Her: ...bluffing the whole way and caught it on the river.
Me: I had the flush draw, too.
Her: Yeah, but you had nothing until the river.
Then came the real gem.
"You'll always lose money betting when you don't even have a pair yet."
For those of you who want to scream "Don't teach the fish," I submit that they can't be taught poker. That's why they're fish. Duh.
