Black jack + 3card

Played this interesting BJ variation in Tunica the other week. You play shoe balck jack, and have an optional side bet. Your two up cards, plus the dealer's up card forms to make a three card poker hand. If you have a viable three card poker hand, three of a kind, straight, flush, or straight flush...

Re: Some lessons are cheap.......

since were telling stories--playing live one night at the casino. We've got a medium sized pot going. I have a straight and the nuts. So at the river i'm heads up to the GENTLEMEN to my left. He calls my last bet and says "whatcha got"? I showed him the straight and then without even...

Re: Some lessons are cheap.......

Boy, does that suck. My condolences. You shouldn't feel stupid--just regret, of course, for the lost pot. It's never happened to me, but I have heard many stories like yours, invariably from the player who had the best hand, realized it after sweating out a scary board, and excitedly fired down...

Re: Nuts flush draw. Check, call or raise ?

I guess it depends on your feel for the table. If UTG is fairly aggressive post-flop, and you're sure he's betting the turn even with the third heart out there, then you should set up the CR, especially since you are in perfect position to trap any bettors caught in between. I agree that a set...

Re: Nuts flush draw. Check, call or raise ?

If you are holding a pair of sevens, you can not flop a straight. However, if you mean the board reads 6-10 for a straight (negating your trips) then you and your opponent each have a straight. This is a split pot. Tell your friend that a poker hand is made out of 5 cards only. On the other hand...

Re: Nuts flush draw. Check, call or raise ?

I am new to poker. My question is I'm holding a pair of seven. They flop a straight 6,7,8,9,10. My friend is holding a 4 and K. He is claiming he won the hand is this true?

Re: 15/30$ LIMIT, 10$ SB forced to call?

No idea. My guess is that almost any two cards are good enough to call with. You are getting 8-1 on your call with one limper and 11-1 with two limpers. Any hand with a card over a 9. Any hand with the potential to make a straight. Any suited hand. That leaves only small cards that can't make straights...

I hate dropping the best hand....

5-10 on Pacific. I limp into a 5- or 6-handed flop with from the SB. Flop comes . I bet, 2 callers. Turn comes . I bet, raise, raise.... These games on Pacific are usually loose, but it's not common to see a 3-bet without a real hand. I didn't really suspect him for K-Q (smooth calling the flop...

Some lessons are cheap.......

some not so cheap, and you pay with your pride. How I learned to keep my emotions in check at the table: 20 minutes before I sat at the 3/6 full kill HE table they hit the bad beat jackpot for $15K. Guy that took the beat got $9K and proceeded to get DRUNK. Raised and reraised every pot every street...

Kids, don't try this at home.

2 hands that show the excellent abilities of yours truly. I humbly submit the following: 10-20 live I'm dealt and make a friendly wage UTG+2, 1 caller, folds and BB calls. Flop I lead out, fold and 1 call. Heads up on the turn. I bet, get raised and reraise. Flat call. Ok, he's got A, Q. River...
