Re: The Worst Strategy You\'ve Overheard at a Table
I played about 20 hours of $4/$8 this weekend so I heard some real gems.
- After a 42o SB hand wins a big pot with 2 pr the dealer says, "That just proves that $4/$8 is all luck. There is no skill what-so-ever in limit poker." One pretty sharp guy next to the dealer laughed and said he believed there was definitely skill involved and starting hand selection would be the first place to start. The dealer concedes and says "Well whatever, I guess there might be some skill involved but no more than 5% at most. Trust me I deal, so I see how much luck is involved. No limit....well that's skill."
- I over heard a great conversation between 3 people at the table about how poker is 100% luck BUT craps is all about the odds and can easily be beaten if you know the numbers. Sharp dressed 30ish guy says his buddies "know all the dice odds" and never loose because "they have an advantage over the house". He's going to get them to teach him the odds pretty soon. I hope he doesn't give up poker! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
