Title: So I find a pair of Kings....... Post by: tikay on January 20, 2007, 12:13:55 PM ....on the floor, behind the dealers chair! This was on Day One of the £500 at Luton, there were, incredibly, the Ks Kd on the floor, face up, behind the dealers chair, between Tables 6 & 7. Play on both tables was immediately stopped, the cards counted (BOTH Tables were using the same coloured deck), & play eventually resumed, but not before a fair bit of moaning & groaning from guys that had played AK & missed. What an extraordinary thing! Assuming there was no skullduggery involved, a quite remarkable thing that it should be a pair of Kings, too. Title: Re: So I find a pair of Kings.......

Yes, from the "other table" (i.e., not mine) thankfully. Title: Re: So I find a pair of Kings.......

Post by: Snatiramas on January 20, 2007, 09:33:37 PM I think that might be how I managed to crack Kings twice in one days poker..........Always good to know that they have no outs when you go in with your 10's or AK suited. In fairness I was low stacked at the time but not quite as low stacked as I was when I cracked the 10's wit 8,6 off at the start of day 2. The flop comes 4,7,5.............ah it is lovely to be blessed

Title: Re: So I find a pair of Kings....... Post by: Rod Paradise on January 21, 2007, 02:54:23 PM With this, and Horneris getting robbed of £35 in Leeds(?) with the thief allowed back in, I think Flushy's opinion on poker clubs not being as reliable as casinos is looking a bit more flimsy.

Post by: ariston on January 21, 2007, 04:31:10 PM how the hell did you manage to spot them is what I'm wondering, you struggle to see past the end of your nose usually. Maybe it was just a miss read and you thought someone had dropped a £20 or £50 and you were shocked to find KK sitting down there.

No, I can see things that are a long way off, it's just things that are close I can't see. If I wanna read a newspaper without my glasses, I put the paper on the floor & stand on a chair.

Yes, the situation obviously called for a strong laydown. Sometimes by the river your big pair is so far behind that the only place for them is right under the table. We've all done it... |
