hi,
I thought I would share some of my posts from my pages. Here's a story from my early years I poker,
True Story:
I played a lot of poker with Johnny Moss when I was young and eventually I learned a lot about him. For instance, Johnny did NOT believe in tipping poker dealers. There were a few exceptions but he was 70 years old and couldn't beat the games any morevent and he blamed the dealers.
The second time I ever played with him was in a short handed 20 40 stud 8 game. He was stuck and in a bad mood. We played where we both paired our door card on fourth street. I made open 3s and Johnny paired 4s. I had two kings in the hole and I caught a king on 5. Johnny caught a queen. We started raising. He stopped at 5 bets. I didn't see anything unusual when he raised me on 6th Street . He did that sort of thing quite often. He looked up at the dealer and said "I will give you a green chip if you help this hand."
In you haven't figured it out yet, don't feel bad. I didn't either. But I was the only one in the Dunes poker room who didn't know that Johnny had four 4s.
Happy to be on the team.
