Has anyonbe heard anything funny about poker but the person was serious like someone once told me you always have to play 10 5 as you cant make a straight without 1 of those cards

I used to play in a poker league round all the local pubs and one player swore by the fact that playing online you should NEVER fold 72o as it wins ALL the time

How about in print? I was just thumbing through Zen and the Art of Poker, which recommends folding good hands if you're on a cold streak. I can't think of a better way to keep running cold than folding good hands! It also says to ignore the mathematical "advice" that each hand is an independent event. Not to mention "play your cards, ignore the actions of others."

Where's my matchbook?

any 2 paint cards are good in any position full handed, but you can fold a + a paint card.

In our live home game, T5 is my bluffing hand. I usually bet when I get it, but more importantly, I make sure everyone knows it's my bluffing hand. (ie, I always show it when I win a pot with it) That way, I sometimes get to take down pots with 10s and 5s on board. They are also wary of straights when I'm in a pot.

Anything to make their job of figuring out my holdings a little more difficult.
