Season kicked off yesterday with New Orleans opening with a hard fought victory against Brett Favre and the Vikings. Should be another great year of NFL football coming up, and hopefully some money to be made. Season predictions and opening game thoughts to follow. |
| Awesome, awesome live hand | 2010 09 02 07:47 pm |
Was playing 1/3 today and witnessed one of the greatest hands ever. Maybe it's tl;dr I probably can't do it justice, but I'll give it a go. It's a bit back and forward ... but honestly it could be the best hand ever. On the river the board reads 53KK3 The first player bets $40. The 2nd player makes it $150 all in. The 1st player turns to the dealer and says "Ok, so it's $150". P2 assumed this was a call and turned up his 55. The first player indicates that he hasn't called yet. P2 starts to take the chips back and jokes "ah I let you off lightly" P1 says "I haven't folded yet, I have 3 kings" turns his obv winning hand over, and then asks the dealer if his 3 kings beats the other guys three 5s (obv the dealer can't answer him), so P1 has his Kx, and P2 has his lower full house turned face up. This is where it get's interesting. P2 says "look man I'm doing you a favour and reaches to grab P1s cards and muck them for him. P1 starts going crazy asking why 3 x 5s beats his 3 x Ks. At this point he still hasn't announced call so the dealer can't exactly step in, and the rest of the table remains silent. By this stage the entire table is wondering WTF is going on, but can't say anything, and it has literally taken like 5 minutes by this point. Finally P1 stares at the board for a few minutes, realises he has won and calls. P2 starts laughing his head off telling him what a stupid call it is because his 55 has a full house. Finally the dealer points out to P2 that P1 infact wins the hand and mucks the 5s full. Now P2 starts going crazy saying he had the winning hand and grabs his money AND P1's money and tries to walk away. Finally the floor step in, and resolves the situation, but it was the most ridiculous / hilarious / mind boggling hand I've ever witnessed. |
| Anyone have experience in round robin betting ?? | 2010 07 02 01:59 am |
I was just trying some things on pinnacle tonight, and came across round robin betting, and I thought it lends itself pretty well to a shortened NRL round where there is value created by Origin players being out. For those unfamiliar with this type of bet, lets say you think the Tigers, Dogs, Roosters, Warriors and Dragons win this weekend. You can put $10 on each of those results into every other result INDIVIDUALLY. So it would look like this (with a hypothetical $10 bet on every result) I've never really thought about placing one of these bets before, and at first glance I think they are probably pretty bad, but any thoughts ??
