My friend invited me to to my first home game I was so excited I was watching and playing poker before the moneymaker poker boom so I was confident about 18 players in upscale New York nice house the buy in was $40 winner gets about $400 so I had $30 my friend gave me the other $10 for my buy in ,Never bet your last,with about 10 players left I get AAs the other player gets KKs i don’t know what happened but I lost I was so mad on my way out I broke the nice outside standing light they had outside.I never confessed but eventually I paid for the light.but the Morale of the story never gamble what you can’t lose.

Your confession notwithstanding, you at least did the right thing by paying for the damage. Your point about only gambling what you can afford to lose, is one that should be made over and over again.

Confession is good for the soul... Xm, may be... But I don't sure, that this is always necessary, rightly, and, main, useful...

The reason you broke that light is because your focus was on the money only and not because you can't afford losing 30$.

Always good to finally accept that it's not all about you. Amazing how many never do.

Always good to remember that pocket aces are just one pair as well and can be cracked with literally anything else above it :)

It is really good you confessed to what you did. I have a lot of respect for you doing this.
