Fortunately, this is made up via a significant number of hands where they miss the flop or connect poorly, thus earning you even more.

in no-limit at bally's they play 1-2 and utg i'd usually "only" open for $8 ($5 plus the size of the pot). whether or not this folds out the blinds, idk? bad beats happen. the main point of this one was that the AA was HIS hand and the T9 was MINE..... until he suddenly moved seats three seconds before the cards were dealt.
the story gets even worse believe it or not as after the game i walk back to the main casino section to relax over a nice plate of general tso's at noodle village before heading home. on my way back to the garage though i'm accosted for "some help" by a homeless player who was in the game. sadly enough when i got up his "stack" composed of a red chip, four whites and a couple crumpled up bills (one may have been a fiver) was probably bigger than mine.
only in atlantic city!!
