Pocket Aces cracked by a dumb A** and the fight that broke out soon after last night I was at the casino and I was playing mu usual 1-2 no limit and I wasn't doing the greatest everytime I raised I would get no action so I get pocket aces and I just limped in knowing that the agressive players behind me would raise. Well one raised to 12 dollars and another called so I raised to 30 with my pocket aces and the original raiser got pissed and folded the other guy reraised and I know he was weak so he raises me to 60 and I reraise to 100 and he moves all in so I call and we both have about 175 each in the pot well I flip over my Aces and he doesn't show his he prefers to wait and I was right in knowing he was weak the flop comes up nothing but low cards and one heart the turn brings a jack of hearts and the river brings out yet another heart and he announces he has a flush with his A-7 of hearts...not only did I lose to a donkey( I wasn't too upset because it is poker and everything happens in poker even bad beats) but it was the comment he said as he was stacking the chips which was"You need to have a better hand than aces to play against me kid"...WTF a better hand I have aces it is the trash talking like that, that really pisses me off you won the hand you got lucky why do you need to gloat and be cocky when I made the right read that he was weak I put my money in with the best hand which is the only thing you can do in poker...I don't mind losing to bad beats I really don't but when you get lucky and give someone a bad beat why do people feel the need to gloat and talk trash??...Well I was going to quietly get up and leave from the table but then he kept talking trash so in the heat of the momment I offered the older man to step outside if he would like to continue the conversation and he then gets up into my face and pushes me well need less to say he was kicked out and was actually giving a ticket by the police for assault and has a month ban from the casino...Now I'm not saying that my comment was right because it wasn't and I know that but in the heat of the momment people say things you shouldn't say and that is also a part of poker as much as a bad beat is...I guess my point is if you put a bad beat on someone just stack your chips and play the next hand don't get cocky and gloat because the hand you won on will lose you more money than you will win in the long run |
