something\'s awry: funny old lady
Pushed into 3-6 the other day. Blinds are posted, but something's awry.
UTG there's an old lady, real old with white hair. She's got $6 out in front, like a live straddle. I'm a bit confused. Old ladies don't straddle, but the $6 seems quite purposefully posted, and she seems quite content. I kinda tentatively look at her and ask "live straddle?" She says "yup, live straddle.". OK. Not something you see very often, but I've seen stranger things. So I deal the cards and several players call the $6. It comes around to the old lady (who hasn't yet looked at her cards) and she makes it $9 blind. Hmmmm. Now something's really awry. I do a quick double check, but there's still a white hired old lady sitting behind the $9. Finally I had to ask, "are you from california?" "Uh-huh" she says. That explains it! I'm still chuckling about it days later.

Re: something\'s awry: funny old lady
Because of the "corporate a$$-sucking jerkoffs phenomenon" I don't say where I deal. If I said where I dealt then everything I wrote would sound like it was in card player (where everything's always peachy, and even the biggest a-holes in the poker world are swell guys). That would be enough to gag a maggot on a gut pile.
