Just played online poker for the first time in ages!

Been playing for a while, watching the other players, and theres one cocky git who thinks he owns the place, chatting it up, giving advice out to others, telling everybody his hands and so on.

I get AA and there are a few calls already, when this guy comes in (Now called Dick) and raises it again trying to steal it. I re-raise it a modest amount just to weed out the weak cards

Dick and 1 other calls.

Flop comes down KQJ. Bit worried.
First guy bets, Dick raises in his usual way. So im not worried about either of them now. So I just call. First guy folds

next card comes down a safe 6.

Now I have watched this guy and know if he checks, I raise and he reraises to push me off.

As clockwork thats how it happens, except he goes all in.

Pretty sure I have him here, so call.

he turns up A5 for nothing!

Victory is mine.

Or is it.....last card turns over a 10! Giving us both the same hand and splitting the pot.


Sounds like a normal hand of poker?

The pot had just over $190 in it!

Fucking wank nuts.

And to top it all I have just got really angry, and my rule is, if you get Angry, stop playing. So now I cant even play any fucking more poker

Im off to find CJ and punch him in the face

Where do you play?

I prefer 10 seat cash games really, I'm much more the patient type with the odd bluff to make things interesting
