another poker story, liz..just to bug you

in reference to my post, "you want them to make that call" when i flopped three kings with ace kicker and lost to a king/ten offsuit when they filled on river. the very next day i lost when i raised with kings and caught one on flop and lost to runner runner flush. the reason i bring this up is that yesterday i was down about 80 dollars in a 1-2 game and changed seats and took the big blind immediately. it is called by two people prior to the button who raises to 18 dollars. I look down and see my favorite hand, ACES both black. i take the bet up to 45 dollars and only the button calls. the flop is Kc, Kh, Qc. I check and he checks. At this point i figure he has AK because he was fairly short stacked and probably would have come back over the top with kings or queens. the turn is the Jc, I check and he goes all in for his last 100 dollars or so which is about what i have and I call figuring that any club, any ace or any ten (the club ten would give me a royal) would win and lo and behold, a club comes and i win the pot and from there i can't seem to lose for the rest of the evening and carry a couple of racks of reds to the cashier later on. moral of story: what goes around, comes around. another moral; you better bet 'em out when you can...if he had gone all in on the flop i would have thrown them away.

(hey liz, it is another poker story)

anyway, tomorrow i head back east for the weekend in providence rhode island and then atlantic city, tropicana. since my traveling computer is on blink, probably won't post any until i get back a week from this coming monday. but then again, you never know.

i cannot recommend the article in rolling stone about goldman sachs highly enough. read it!!!
