Poker: Putting several players on high cards
I play in a home game that's pretty loose, so I can't narrow down the possibilities enough to put players on high cards like Joe Beevers does here at the WSOP.
But I still think I can apply the same logic of figuring out what an overbet really means. Plus, I agree, the better you play, the more hands you don't run all the way down to the river.
Meanwhile, Super Bowl XLII is Sunday. Looking for some good prop bets, if anyone out there has anything going.
NICK SORTAL began playing 3-card "gut" and "Indian poker" on high school band trips, moved on to "night baseball" and "pass the trash" during a Dr. Pepper-infused midnight game in the 1980s at the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, and now play in a regular neighborhood Hold 'Em game in Plantation. I have been given the assignment of writing about the gambling life in South Florida casinos for the Sun-Sentinel...which means sitting around watching poker on TV now counts as research.
