Coin Flip
I am playing a $5 SNG last night during the Pittsburgh game...
There are two of us left (I am up a nominal amount)
and I get 9s in the hole. He completes the bet...
I raise, I am aggressive heads up after all, another bet of the pot.
He calls, I have him on a weak face card, probably ace.
Flop is crapola. I have top card beat. He bets, I raise, he goes all in
and I call.
He shows, A5o. What? I am right?!
The turn is a J or something and wait for it...
River is the A.
Ok, it happens, no big deal. I shoot him a "nh" message followed by
a "lucky" message. No big deal, tame stuff.
His response caught my eye. He actually said:
"It was a coin flip."
HUH?
I restrained myself and did not tell him he was a 4 to 1 dog to hit his three outer after the flop.
But to both my readers need to know this:
HE WAS ONE LUCKY MORON!
HE WAS A 4 to 1 DOG AND DIDN'T REALIZE IT.
As my mother would say, He should be beaten within an inch of his life.
This is the part where I flip the virtual table and the virtual chips and virtual cards go flying.
More Monday Morning Moronica to follow.
Later.
