An all-in poker hand
Phew we had a heated game last night. I was playing in one of my favourite little places where I like to sneak-off for a game once in a while. I usually play with some of the regulars that I know fairly well and I suppose you can count me in as a regular, although I don’t go there all the time. Its one of those places where you just feel comfortable and the level of play is within your limits. We’ve got to know each other over the years and I can pretty much second guess all of their moves – last night was different!
It started off quiet, I had a few average hands but nothing special. Then around midnight, Will, or “Wicked William” as I will now refer to him from now on, starts upping the game. Totally out of character, Will is usually a conservative player that doesn’t take too many chances. Well our friend, Will starts with some “all-in” betting.
“What are you doing?” was the reply from us (actually the choice of language was worse than this, but I will keep it clean for the sake of the blog…).
“I’ve got an All in poker hand” says Wicked Will.
“Yes whatever, big fella,” came the reply. “Lets see what you really have?”
Whereupon Will cleaned the table. And he did it three times last night! Luckily I didn’t commit myself too much and I managed to not lose too much, but some of the other players were not so lucky.
After threatening “Wicked Will” with his life…it turns out he has found some great tips from this website, all in poker hand, he’s been using their software and it’s improved his game. I can’t promise you anything, and I still think he got lucky (maybe I’m just a sore loser), but it worked for “Wicked Will”. Some of their stuff looks really useful, odds calculators you may have seen before, but these odds calculators look interesting. I liked their coaching software and I think this is what changed Will’s game and gave him the edge.
Some useful tools like these can really up your game. Seemed to work for Will. And now his investment is paid for….hmmmm
