It's great when you've been talking to someone for a while about the game and realize that they think you're talking about blackjack.

On my last visit to Vegas i was sitting in a low buyin NL game. I was chatting a little with the guy next to me to pass the time. As i leave i mention to him how slow live poker seems when you compare it to playing 6 tables online. I also mention something along the lines of it (online poker) also not being so frustrating to play if you're down because you're seeing so many hands. He then replies that he knows what I mean, because he always wins when he plays multiple hands of blackjack.

I like to tell these people about 6K pots. They really flip it. For the high stakes players it could be even more fun!

Douche: what's the most you've ever won?
Durr: you mean in like 30 seconds? 100K.
