I played poker last night at Hal’s house last night. It was my 2nd time playing poker with the boys (plus Erica) from work.

Poker really is a game of swings. I was never actually up last night, but I had fun and only lost $16. We started off with dealer’s call format, but after the female player left we transitioned into a No Limit Texas Hold’em tournament. I busted out first 😦 trying to play what I thought was “the hammer” but was informed after my “all-in” was called that they have to be unsuited to be the worst hand in poker. You can reference Hal’s blog to try and understand why there is foolish pride in bluffing (or somehow winning) a pot with the worst starting hand in poker.

But it was fun and hope to host one of them at our house soon.
