I had a hand like that once - except I folded.

Blinds 10/20, I have 1600, I fold K 2 off suit to a 20 call.

Flop: K K K.

I think we can loosen up on the gambling mentioning now.

We will be working fairly heavily with a casino if it goes ahead, so we will wear what we wear.

Just no mentioning of Full Tilt or anything that promotes gambling or betting, talking about results or experiences is fine. But saying sign up to this site and I will give you a bonus will not be tolerated.

What do you think Mods?

I posted here just so I can find out what Nicole is playing and how much she looks to cash?

Blinds 10/20, I have 1600, I fold K 2 off suit to a 20 call.

Flop: K K K.


i was playing online the other day (play money of course)

i got dealt K4 off suit, on the BB.

flop comes 2 K K, turn K and i win a decent pot

2 hands later, i get dealt K4 again on the button this time, and i am massive chip leader, so i call.

flop comes 2 K K, turn K AGAIN

i thought there was some sort of glitch, and the same hand was going again! but the river was different, and i had a couple of all-inners this time, and ended up smashing the tourney because of it.

since i have never got a sf in holdem (got one in omaha once), that was the maddest couple of hands i have been dealt.

Playing at micro tables I have had quads 2 hands in a row. Kings and then 5's.

Interestingly Pocket 5's is my most valuable (couldn't think of the right word) hand.

When I first read this thread I thought torch was playing npl somewhere and posting via a mobile or something. :oops:

Funny you should mention that, I had one last night. Dealt QJ suited, call a 700 preflop raise (I know, I know), flop 10, 9, 2, all my suit, I push all in, two callers, turn gives me the K of spades for the straight flush.

That's pretty lucky though, hitting quads, twice, in 3 hands. What's the odds on something like that?
