It might well be true that I'm the world's worst bluffer, at Poker, & evidence mounts by the day.

At a good-humoured Luton-G last night, I Raised Pre, bet every street, both of us with decent stacks still behind, & I got called by someone holding - & I can't be arsed to work it out exactly - the 80th nuts.

Can you beat that?

The Board came A-3-T-T-A.

I was called by 8-8.

Does anyone know what "nuts" that is, precisely?

Erm.... 21st I think. Did you have  by any chance?

33rd "nuts" according to my calculations.

31st nuts?

Ignoring suits:

Ax = 13
Tx = 12
KK
QQ
JJ
99
33

= 30, and so 88 is the 31st?

Bugger - the 88 is forfeited by the Tens.  So there are a lot more...

I'd included quads x 2

but yes I forgot Kx, Qx, Jx, 9x

so thats 30+10 (already got KK, K10,AK)+ 10 (already got AQ, 10Q, QQ)+10+10

70th nuts

Yup, several of our finest poker brains were not within shouting distance of the correct answer. Wowzer.
