I can see the T7. I hit T4 on the flop of TT4 one time. Only problem is the guy I was heads up with had T5 and hit his 5 on the river... GRRRRRR!!!!

There should be a rule. If you hit the monster first you win! HA! Or how about this? What a bout a way to stop the betting on the flop? Heck, if both players agree, you pay a premium or something.... Hmmm... Damn I'm tired of getting sucked out on!

I have a friend that plays in our home games with us and plays 92 like they're Aces. It's unreal how often they hit too. You'll put somebody on tilt real quick when you spank their AA with 92.

OK, so here we are 2 hours later and heads up with that guy who raises every time he's on the button and reraises if you raise from the button. OK the cool part is he folds if you re-raise him... Hmmmm

Anyway, 2 hours later another T4 incedent. holding T4 and flop = 7T4 rainbow. He bets (like every time), I raise and insead of folding like all the other times he pushes. I promptly call and he holds AT.

Good right?
turn=blank
river=7

So, I know he has 6 outs on the flop and 3 more on the turn but DAMNIT! I'm never playing T4 again!!

Remember I said I liked 32o in the BB so I could show it when it gets checked round? Well I guess it had to happen sooner or later, but I just saw a guy get to show it for the best of reasons. The flop was 332 and it went to a showdown!

Last time I went to the casino there was a guy who did just that. Whenever he had a monster preflop, he would make his raise, and if he was against just one person, he would tell the dealer to stop, then announce his hand and ask if he wanted to check it down the entire way. Players always obliged, the hand was treated as an all in.

I also have to go with QT, but in the following progression....

1. QT clubs (the best!!!)
2. any QT suited
3. QT offsuit but only cheap and in position.

I get lots of trips, straights, good draws, flushes, and boats with it.

Definitely my favorite. I think this one says it all.....
