So, do I get free food, at Friday "Fish Fry's,"
I don't know, but that sounds awesome.
and a good seat, at the "Knights Of Columbus" poker games,
I kind of love playing in early position against tight players, aggressive or otherwise, because you can steal anything you want unless they've got a monster, and it's obvious when they do.
And then you just fold.
But even when you know they've got a good one, doesn't mean fold automatically because sometimes you've got the straight flush. Straight flushes should be played slow, whether you're in early or late position. Don't overthink it. The
last thing the other players are going to think is, "It's a straight flush."
They can't catch up. You don't want to chase them away, you don't want to chase
any of them away. You're going to showdown and beat every last one of them and you're going to beat them
hard. You want that pot just brimming with everybody's stacks after the river bets.
So therefore, it therefore must be absolutely important for a career poker player to know how to convince other players to stay in the hand instead of fold, because you have to slaughter them when you get a straight flush. If you don't, then why are you even playing this game? You have to waste them all when you finally get the immortal nut straight flush. You have to be ready for that, get them all to relax, and to hand over all their chips.
'Free liquor and I'm in.
And how about a free ride on "The Pope Mobile?"
There's one way to get a free ride, all the other people who ride in it get paid to do so.
