Bringing Degeneracy to Thailand

Alright I would be in Thailand for the month of April, rooming with other online players, do keep a lookout at my blog for more updates.

Cash Game @ Jon's

So its my first live game after over 3 weeks and as usual i arrive late at the game, with only 2 hours of play left, which i wasted another hour catching up with some old schoolmates who were there catching a soccer match. Table was rather fun, alot of talking and mostly limped pots. Well, I'm not making fun or anything about my opponent, but this was really the main highlight of the night..

I was dealt AJ on the button, raised it to $8 got one caller.
Flop comes A58, he checks, I bet out for $15, he calls.
Turn comes T, he checks again, I bet $20, he calls.
River's another A, he checks once again, I took a long time before going all-in for anoher $50~ and he calls almost instantly.
He turns over A4 to my delight, but as i was about to collect the chips...
"Isn't it a split pot? You mean the kicker counts?! OMG, i didn't know the kicker plays! Oh man, I really didn't know... Oh man, I'm so sad..."

Well, i felt really bad, honestly! I mean if he really didnt know that the kicker does play then i would be like cheating him right...? Well, but someone made this comment, "Well, you pay to learn the game." And that made me feel much better taking the reamaining chips left in front of him. :)

Another highlight of the game was me wearing this visor, which i could adjust it into a position that could cover my entire face. I looked like a weird power ranger, I'll try to get a picture of myself some time soon. Ok till next time people, have fun and good luck at the tables!
