JJ on the button, and the UTG shows a effing big tell…. (1 Viewer)

1) I'm assuming your son is an adult and that is wife is also an adult and is 7 months pregnant. The alternative is that your son (age undetermined) got a 7 year old girl pregnant, but at least he married her and made an honest toddler out of her.

2) What are papers of intent (I'm actually asking, no joke in serious thread, I don't know what this is)?

3) Plus breath aid!

i thought you were an attorney
 
Since your opponents are super strong players, your best line here is to do a slow roll, face up in front of the player to your immediate left. Make it look like the other guy is still in the hand and that he has JJ. Then, pretend you're him and make it seem like he said call with his JJ. You may have to practice throwing your voice first though. It works best when well executed. I can recommend a few YouTube videos for you if you're interested. Just let me know. Anyhow, give that a shot next time...
 
@bergs I am just getting over a nasty cough, but you just made it ten times worse and I couldn't breath :-)

@bonesnjnts hope everything works out for you mate. Like @stocky and bergs said, what was the notice of intent and your son about? Did that affect how you thought of the hand? Serious enquiry mate. :-)
 
I'm confused. You're playing against skilled players. 2 of them limp-fold pre flop to a small raise, and the third donk bets the flop less than 1/2 pot.

You have jacks, the board has 2 overs. You're behind. Just fold. You don't need to read the tell. These players are not that tricky.

really. can’t I have fun and play the game in my head?

rob…such a buzz killer
 
okay—in our game we each have a show—once a night
if you guess right, you get another

so i wanted to play cards—after he bets 6 i raise to 15 and he goes all in.
i fold but i want to see his cards.
yes, if i thought of this earlier, i would have folded much sooner, but i was under the influence.
i fold.
i ask for the show.
i get it right.
i offer to show my hand for 15 bucks.
there are no takers.

and i know his tell.

the problem will be to remember what it is.

I'm playing a game in my head. It's called "Mod Invaders" and it involves being a moderator in a tiny spacecraft capable of wheeling about quickly and firing these tiny pixelated rockets into horribly created and difficult to read threads.

It gets too expensive to pay the girls for multiple shows?

OK, in that case I'll take a short haired blonde with big boobs and glasses. Like Jenny McCarthy but with 30 more IQ points. OK, 50 more.

Good! Because if you came here to create succinct and relevant threads, you're much better off just playing cards

Just have him read this thread, wait 17 minutes till he's still understanding what the flop was and passes out, and then flip them over....

This might be the first poker strategy thread on the Internet created by someone on bath salts.

If you played in our game and "asked for the show", you'd get alot more than you came for (figuratively speaking, I assume).

- Courage would show you his plans for the world's largest portable propane heater, designed to save people stranded above the Death Zone on the side of Everest, which is
incidentally where I wish I was right now in reading this thread.

- Harley would do a little dance, make a little lo--well, he'd do a little dance, at least.

- Guinness would straight up show you his wanker

- I'd pretty much do what I'm doing right here but I'd be talking instead of typing

Close thread and never post again and I'll give you $14?

Definitely close thread now, right?

For fuck's sake, now is it time to close thread??

That's not the fucking problem. The problem is that the way you post, I need to use a goddamn German Enigma machine to figure out what in the name of fucking hell is going on. This is like DoD level cryptography. IS THIS NOOKER?! IS THAT YOU NOOKER YOU SNEAKY LITTLE FUCKER?!
 
I was hoping that Mojo was like the Loch Ness Monster, like one of a kind, something that evolution had forgotten in a moment of dynamic haste, like my glasses in a bar, now uniquely gone, never to be seen from (or with) again)...but now it's obvious that Mojo has others. And these others are going to post. With one consonant. In every thread. Forcing you to try to decipher their posts like we're fucking Sherlock Homes or something. Fanfriggintastic.

the game is .25/.50
everyone thinks they are great players, and honestly, except for a couple of guys, they are right

i came to the game late—about 45 min late and already the usual short stacks are short and the ballers are smirking

What kind of chips were you using? The reason I ask is because I pulled out my el cheapo Ace King suited chips this evening, and I can easily stack 50+ chips (I stopped at 50, could have been a lot more, I'll test them properly next time).

Granted these are the only chips Ive owned, so I have nothing to compare them against, but I really like them, a lot. If they had inlays with denoms, they would be perfect and I wouldnt think of spending more $$$. These chips are great bang for your buck, but their downfall IMO is no denom.

Anyone ever tried stickers on these types of chips? Without the inlay, does the sticker just add height and feel cheap? I guess you wouldnt be able to stack them as high anymore with a sticker and it would probably catch on your fingernail etc?

Anyway, just curious. I really like these chips but need denoms.

So who won the hand?
 
I wish I could stick my this thread so I can come back to it next time I get JJ and some guy is eye balling me.

So much valuable strategy I don't think I will be able to apply it all at once.

I am dealing. I have JJ
UTG- is a solid reg. he can bluff, but his tendency is to play his strong hands to the end, and and sometimes he can fool me. I like to watch everything these days. the cards matter but not as much as every little nuance in the game. the joy is finding and learning about each person at the game. some games i just watch one player the entire night and see what they do.

so…

UTG limps, there are 2 more limpets and it comes to me on the button.

I raise to $3.

I like tea and limpets
