Poker and inexplicable situations
It is quite often difficult to believe that few people can follow you with nothing but it is certainly truer on Internet. When you play poker on Internet, most of the time you are disappointed and you don’t believe that people can call you with these kinds of cards. I will tell you some stories which happen on online poker website and when it happen to you, you are quite pissed off.
Peter is a poker player on internet and he doesn’t play at any other game than cash game. The other day, he was playing at a table of 8 players, a current tournament in poker, you just need to find some people they are playing and you can play poker with them. Anyway, the dealer serves the cards; Peter received a King and a 10 same suit (heart). Peter raised. The other players called and the last one raise 20 Euros more. For Peter, this attitude is quite stupid and he knows that the player is a beginner. Anyway, everyone called so; it was no point to do it. The flop
7- K- 3
Everyone check and it is peter’s turn! He decides to go all in. Everyone folded except the beginner. Peter is not worry and said that the beginner will fold. But, unfortunately, the player is calling him, a pot of 2000 Euros. The cards are turned and the other player as an Ace and a 2. Of course, the beginner player won and Peter is completely mad. He asked him why he played with nothing, the other player said because he just wanted. Peter couldn’t believe it. Peter was so pissed off after that, and he hate form now, to play poker online on the French website because most of the players play like that and do not know the rules of poker.
A lot of complaints about online poker, it is the fact that a lot of players think that at the beginning, they have a lot of good hands, when they start to play but after a while the cards are not so goods and if you credit your account you get quickly a better game. A lot of players think that the online poker is rigged and don’t believe in it anymore.
Other case: A player received an ace and a king with different suit; she raised. Five others players called her. The flop appeared
Ace (heart) – queen (heart) – 10 (club)
She raised again and 3 others players called her. She suspected someone to get the straight.
Ace (heart)- queen (heart)- 10 (club) + ace (club)
She said in her mind that why not but preferred to check; someone raised again. She called but she knew that someone got a straight. So, it left 3 players.
Ace (heart)- queen (heart)- 10 (club) + ace (club) + 3 (heart)
She folds the others players kept raising.
player 1: he has a straight Jack+ king
Player2: he has a flush jack and 4 of heart
Player 3: he has a full house: Ace + queen
Me, I have a three of the kind.
Have you seen that before?
