i play hold em every saturday night with some friends... and just had the desire to share one of my hands with you all from last week. i almost made a mess of my pants when i saw the turn card {}
I've had 4 of a kind twice in one night. First 10s, then Aces several hands later. Still waiting on the Royal Flush. If you land one in a Casino, I hear they give you a hat.
I've had the royal flush twice, a 10-high straight flush once, and 3 or 4 four-of-a-kinds over the last year. It's always fun to get them, but more often then not, it's of no real use... you usually win bigger pots with ace high or a single pair!
how true. i was just really psyched. because i have been playing hold em for over 3 years and this is the first time i pulled four of a kind
Best hand i ever played was 4 of a kind... i had 4 jacks after the flop... i checked... no one raised... then turn i checked... so did everyone... river... i check everyone checks except for last person who raises pretty big... i go all in she calls i win it was very pretty hard keeping it in... worse 4 of the kind was... i got full house on flop and no one raised... 4 of the kind came on the turn... on the river i rasied 2 chips (minimum) and everyone folded PS clay... you are on post 420(0) he he he woohoooo (sorry)
...reminds me of an old Gomer Pyle episode. Some Poker hustler takes all Sgt. Carter's & Duke's money...Pyle tells the guy that everyone thinks he's a cheat & that no one wants to play him anymore. The Hustler then lets Pyle win a bunch & tells him it's all luck. The hustler's girlfriend is confused, the hustler sez it's a ploy to take everyone down in one big game. In the big game, everyone is dealt a 'pat hand'...the hustler has nothing & must draw 4(he is supposed to end up with 4 Aces). Pyle's 'pat hand' is 4 Kings. Everyone's money is in. Pyle keeps asking Carter if it's a good hand...Carter & Duke say an empahtic "Yes!". Pyle asks, "Is it the best hand"? They say "No"...and Pyle throws in the 4 Kings because with all that money in there, he wants the best. Carter starts yelling "He made a mistake" & the hustler agrees..."What kinda dope throws away 4 Kings"?!? Everyone then sees the next 4 off the deck = 4 Aces. Anyway...blah.
