Originally posted by AZCB34 Did you watch last night? That last hand? Holy cripes. Kiril Hits the straight on the turn and Alan comes back with the full house on the river card? What a way to end it. That was exciting and, Mike, that show is addictive as hell. Makes me want to go try this for a living...of course that is the gambling "addict" inside talking.
Love that show and look forward to the next installment. Are they just repeating season 1 after last night or are they launching into a new season right away?
Finally saw this, and yes, wow, what a match. How about the guy who had a Full House, and then the River card was a 4th 7, leaving him empty handed!

I would love a nice felt table and some clay chips, but can you believe how expensive they are?
$200 for a nice set of them is just a lot of money.

You can find some good quality, non-clay chips. My buddy got a whole set, plus two decks of cards for like 80 or so. 1 year later, and the chips are going strong. And the cards are guaranteed for life. The firstset took a beating, and they sent him two new decks. I could try and find ifno for you if you like. Oh, and scour thrift stores for card tables. We found one for 30 bucks. No burns no tears, and seats 8 with cup holders and ashtrays. ASHTRAYS! Heh. Old School table...
How'd the Poker Game go? How many hands did you last before you went "All In?"
It was fun, just four of us...we did some practice hands for about an hour, just to get the other two guys into the game and to teach them a little.
Then we did the $5 buy-in for No-Limit, and just did nickle ante's instead of Blinds. We'll do that next time.
The two new guys didn't last too long, and I was down to $1.50 after going hard on a flush I had, only to find out the other guy had the same flush, but Ace-high!
So it was down to one-on-one...and I came back. Went All-In three times, and won them all. The last one was a pretty fun hand actually.
I was dealt 10, K, and we both bet about 50 cents just to see a flop.
It came: 10, 3, K. Great for me, two pair. Suddenly, he goes All-In...and I'm thinking, if anything, he just has what I have, OR a pair in his hand. So I felt confident, so I called. About $5.75 was all I had, and it was in the pot.
Flipped our cards to find he just had a pair of 10's, so I was in the drivers seat big time. Nothing came for him at the Turn or the River, and I won the hand.
Ended up with about $11 when we stopped, which was $6 more than I started with.
It was fun, but I'll look forward to next time with a few more guys who know the game better. First two guys were out quick.

I don't know, that sounds just like one they had last season. Unless they had a tournament and the same guys showed up again. In fact, i think after the one last year they had a show about how to play poker with Lou Diamond Phillips as host.
