And just to carry the silliness further, if you make the 4 AK hands offsuit instead of suited, and add 4 QJ offsuit hands, then 74o becomes a HUGE favorite at 63% in a 9-handed game and the AK hands become 13:1 dogs while the QJ's are almost 50:1 dogs.

I have no point here. Just love silly stats.

A lady out at Red Rock checked behind on the river and turned over the Floosh Royale.

I said: "Ma'am, at what point did you think your hand was no good?"

I couldn't help myself.

This was in a 2/4 limit home game a few years ago...

Me: How's the game?
Friend: Seems fine... that guy over there is playing jack or better.
Me: Oh so don't pop him unless I've got the goods?
Friend: No the card Jack and any other card or better
Me: ...

Noone ever reraised me, and this guy called me all the way down with KJ and then berated me for betting on the end because "The only hand that calls is one that beats you." Guess he failed to notice that he did call me with second pair.

Not the worst I ever heard,

No not the worst, but possibly the most ironic so far.

Donk: I've been waiting all day to trap you.
Me: GJ you're awesome at winning coinflips.
Donk: LOL! I was a 55-45 favorite man.
Me: Big deal, 55-45 might as well be 50-50.
Donk: Haha, I'm laughing because you think 55-45 is the same as a 50-50.

LOL at Trapaments.

Sometimes you have to do that because of jackpots.

2/4 Table...

River was checked to me, 4 handed, everyone missed their draws, me included. I fired with 9 high and everyone folded. I flipped over my busted straight. Older guy across the table:

"That's how these kids play today. They bet when they think everyone else has nothing.

Is this a level? Who's going to fold to a river bet here with a jackpot-eligible hand?

A woman this weekend played almost every hand and stated that it wasn't the hole cards that mattered, it was the flop. She said this constantly and reiterated that any two cards were good cards until the flop. She also said Hold 'Em was 80% luck and 20% skill.
