So as most of you may know I am a predominately live player, & if you don't now you do. With that being said last night I got together a small cash game @ my place, .25-.50 blinds. The game itself was never more than 6-handed & it didn't stay that way for long. I myself initially bought in for 40$ but then re-bought for 34$ more putting me in the game for a total of 74$. So we saw a lot of crazy stuff last night.... In one hand 3 players got all-in, when we were 5 handed, two players had aces, one pocket Jacks. lol. No jack, Aces chopped. Now that was too strange I have seen that before, but the last hand of the night... INSANE! Soooo let me continue. The game was down to 3 handed, with some pretty deep stacks for .25-.50, I had over 100$ on the button, another player in the BB had around 80-90, and the SB had around 30-40$. I had straddled the button, which if you're not familiar is double the BB & you steal the action pre-flop, so it was 1$ to call. The SB folded(Thank God, you will find out why later.), the BB limped, I raised 3$ more with Jc5c, the bb flat calls & the flop comes Ac3c10c, the bb fires out 6$, I min raise to 12$, he calls. Turn card 2h, BB checks, I fire 20$, BB moves in, I call. How big is your flush I ask? With a defeated look the BB says "Prolly not bigger than yours.." & flips over 6c4c. Now here's the real crazy part, after the smoke cleared, the SB smacked the table" Damn!" as he reaches into the muck to expose his Kc2c. He would've flopped the nuts. That is the first time ever I've seen flush,over flush, over flush only 3-handed! The odds of that happening have got to be astronomical! 9 of the 14 clubs in the deck were in play!! Anyhow hope you enjoyed the read Mobsters.

You guys need someone to shuffle that cards better before you start playing!!! Four aces in the hand in one of the games, nine clubs out of ten cards in other (two for each of the three players plus three from the flop, not counting the “burned” one before you put the flop at the table)… next time get someone to deal the cards for you, and don’t forget the first rule of home game: one shuffles, another breaks it, and the third one deals. No chance of putting the cards the way its better for anyone.

In four and a half years of online play I have only seen it a few times, live three handed that is insane. Definition of SUCKS: watching two players (or more) get into a hand, stack off, and realize you folded the nuts.

Ya I've only seen Ace vs Aces twice now. I thought it would've been lower than that as well Jack. Oh and by the way, I bring in a dealer(someone too broke to play, they never mind working for tips.) to deal. I hate folding the nuts almost as bad as I hate using proper punctuation and paragraphs.
Also, paragraphs and proper punctuation are your friend.
