Re: turning a hand
[ QUOTE ]
I've often wanted to do it when I have aces, because they are usually the kiss of death. I'd be content with winning the small pre-flop pot.

I think I told this story once but it seems to kinda fit...
Playing NL and one guy has been sucked out on over and over. He's frustrated and is on his 3rd buy-in. So the flop comes out on a hand where he's first to act and he's got like $200 left. There's $80 in the pot and 4 players saw the flop. He says "sorry, but I have a theory and I have to test it" and he turns face up something like JJ on a JT6 flop and announces "all-in". Fold, fold, CALL! Turn and river come out and the player who called triumphantly turns over the flush draw or straight draw that he hit. JJ shakes his head, says "yep, that's what I thought", and walks away.
Don't be surprised if you turn AA face up as you announce "all-in" and get called. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
