i think i peed myself laughing so hard

The late Dick Harmon mentioned a story about an Old Rich Guy pwning another young punk at Augusta National . Story goes, they were playing a low limit poker game and young "new money " punk is irritated at the small stakes and expresses this to all. "Old" Money asks the young punk what is his net worth is. Young punk says 10 million, old man than replies, "you wanna flip a coin for it?" Young punk than shuts the **** up. Dick harmon never mentioned on the radio if he was scared to gamble or he backed out after he saw that Teddy "Iceman" was going to do the coin flipping.

post 132 tells it better imo

Ups

very funny stories... can't believe i missed this post

saw something like this at Commerce 10-20nl a while back - seat 7 has 25K in all chips (mostly white 100s), seat 8 has about two-three racks of brown stacked up tall and to the left side kind of hidden from s7's perspective- has 2-3 bundles of 5K each.

hand comes down SB(s7) v BB(s8) - all fold to the blinds, dealer asks if the SB if he would like to chop, SB answers by raising to 100, BB calls, flop comes J95, bet and a call, turn is another 5, goes check check, river is a K for J955K board, SB bets like 500 and the BB thinks and raises to 2K, SB instantly says "All in" and the BB goes in to the tank and ends up calling the all in, SB shows 2-5 for trips, and the big blind shows Q-T for the straight, SB cuts off about 3K thinking that would cover the all in, when the old man sorta slow rolls the other 15K and says "Shoulda chopped." Dude is like mega pissed at the dealer and starts flipping out, the dealer tried to make the pot right but the guy was so livid he wouldn't hand over any more money - the floor ended up coming over and making him pay up, but like 5-6 hands went by before the sitch was resolved

the moral here: play 10-20nl at the Commerce

That guy is a true G

I heard this story where there was this rich guy at a poker table and bragging about how rich he was, and an even richer guy says that he will flip a coin for his entire net worth. Thus humiliated, the rich guy slinks away, and everyone else has a good chortle at his expense

THE WYNN has no max buy in
Bella has a 200 max on 2-5 which made me short and lost 2 buy ins, went to 5-10 with 2k and made 11 thousand......i coulnt get off the felt in 2-5, thanks bella but your buy ins suck.....

pretty sure this is an old poker myth, Micheal Weisenburg has a cool version of this in one of his Cardplayer columns, where the hero Curly catches on to the deck being rigged to deal up a A-2-3-4-5 over A-2-3-4-6 lowball jackpot

dealt a pat wheel, Curly builds up a huge sidepot which he wins without a showdown, then the cheater (who was all in) tables a 6-4 knowing Curly is about to roll over a wheel for a jackpot, only to see Curly throw it in the muck telling the cheater "....that's good...", negating the 30K bad beat jackpot

they are called girlfriends, they get you drinks and sandwiches when u can't get up from your desk long enough to make corned beef and pastrami on sourdough

Your second sentence cracked me up.

That's ****ing awesome.

Standard

Or just not drink bailey's.

Awesome story!

I wish this would happen to every d-bag who can't keep his moulth shut and take dead money. Some people will just never learn, I bet he was out talking trash on another fish the next day.

haha I can't believe I never noticed this thread before. I am going to have to read the whole thing. Should this type of thing be allowed at a casino?

Say assCLOWN...I hate looking at the stars...

Anyone have links to the other Rekrul threads? I remember there being a few awesome ones.

lmao

2-5 and 1-3 games at the Wynn now have a cap

I enjoyed this post.*







*you can too, but you have to read the entire thread.

I did too.

Its always funny to imagine the story never stopping. Like the 100 mil texas guy is bragging to a bunch of broke tourney players, then the 6 billion net worth aussie offers to flip him for his role, then some dubai oil prince walks over and offers to flip for $6 billion then Bill Gates bursts through the wall and offers the prince to flip for $18 billion then Warren Buffet comes from under the table and asks Bill Gates to flip for $45 billion and shuts everyone up

it works better if you imagine the process starting at a 1/2nl game where some guy sits with a 1k brick to impress people.
