Good one Mark! A subtitle like "let the unacceptable candidates worry about that.:

As mentioned in the March LC thread, I started my dealing career in the bar poker league last night.

Went pretty well. A couple errors, nothing huge. Need to slow down a beat.

There's a tradition when the flop is all one rank, there's free shots from the bar. for people at the table who want one I guess they are (not great) kamikazes--don't know, not a mixed-drink person, never tried.

Managed to throw three eights up there, so accomplished that if nothing else.

It was a fun time, on the schedule again tonight.

Did you get any extra tip love for triggering the round of drinks?
04-28-2023 , 12:37 PM
Did not. Do not mind at all.

Just a hand or two before, I'd mentioned while shuffling that I hadn't even come close to dealing a "shots" flop. Ding ding ding!

Next up is to give someone a monte carlo hand (quads or better, both hole cards must play, PP for quads). Did deal quads on that hand, someone had the other 8, so nearly a two-for-one.

After my table broke, jumped into the second game, right in BB. First hand, 72o; some limpers, I check. Flop second pair something like A74. Checks around, turn 2. Bet, one caller. random nonsense river, shove for ~ PSB, one of the other players had A7 off and got me.

Strangely, when I sat down, I had about a 1/2 beer left. Upon joining, said, "Sure, I'll play for a little while." Hard to be more accurate.

Though now that you mention it, LKJ, I did realize I forgot to remind the players that "while the drinks are free, the service is not" to get them to tip the waitress. I'll have to mkae it right with her next time I see her.

Thanks for the reminder!

Good call. Obviously correlating higher tips to lucky cards with dealers is irrational (albeit common), but it does suck when servers get stiffed because of coupons or outright freebies.

I know we're supposed to be evolving past stuff like this, but whatever you all decide on, feel free to replicate the yt tag in observance of how hot the woman is at 0:14 in next month's thread



They've been running this commercial around Cinco de Mayo for a few years and everyone is trying to figure out who she is and noone seems to know.

ETA: and seriously, why isn't the gun kata thread in politics?

04-30-2023 , 10:13 PM
Because it's so bad that even Politics didn't want it.

I guess getting called a momma’s boy leftist was worth getting it shut down I guess. But hey nobody called Sarah Sanders a fat pig so all good I guess.
