Default Howdy strangers

Have had no time for Poker in quite a while. But now I suddenly find myself unemployed. So, back again for the time being. No telling how long it will last this time around.

My first game back was less than auspicious. Thus my post here. I sit down at a 1/2 nl game in Biloxi, MS, during a visit to my dad. An Arab fellow sits down, and starts playing blind. Seriously. Just raises every time, every round, without looking at his cards. His neighbor says "what are you going to to if someone raises you all-in?"

"I call. I not pussy."

Next hand I get jj in the BB. He raises blind for the 20th time in a row (oh and his raises are 10 bb). I put him to the test and shove my $600. The whole table goes "ooooooooh!" He calls, doesn't turn over his hand until all 5 cards are up on the board:

2 6 9 Q 2

Then he slow rolls -- seven deuce offsuit.

That's not the bad beat, though. This is: I head to the ATM, hoping he'll be there all night. By the time I get back (5 minutes later, roughly), he's donked off 3k and left.

Poo.
