Underground Poker in Antwerp

Sir Frots saw my potential in poker as he did in chess, and quickly introduced me to a few friends who had an underground game going. The stakes were low, but that was good since playing with money felt very strange to me, and the rules were totally screwed up, but what did I know?

A Loose Interpretation Of The Texas Hold ‘em Poker Rules

They had a thing called a “short straight” and a “long straight”, basically a “long straight” was what in real poker is known as the straight (5 in a row; for example 5d6d7c8h9c) and a “short straight” was just 4 in a row (for example TcJhQcKc). A “long street” was higher than a full house, safe to say, the straight ruled supreme. On top of it all, we also had a top hand called “poker” this was a 5 of a kind. What? I hear you moaning. Yes, we had a 5 of a kind, because we used 2 decks. The shuffling was an extreme sport, and it’s there that I learned to shuffle well and fast. Once I came to realize poker was only played with one deck; I became the master of shuffling, heck, it was only one deck! Pussies.

Making A Good Profit In a Casually Planned Underground Game

I quickly turned a profit in this casually planned underground game, and on average I netted 7$ each evening. If you are a seasoned poker veteran, I hear you saying that that is your small blind. Well try to consider the fact that I survived with only 300$ a month. And also, we played very few hands each evening, with alcohol and other drugs compelling us to suck at shuffling a 108 piece strong deck. Also, the rules were very unclear, so usually every 10 hands there was a spontaneous 20 min break where 2 players would discuss who actually won the pot (We both have a full house but I have a better kicker! Yes, those types of interesting discussions). Oh and I even forgot something, there were no blinds, and we showed the flop right after the cards were dealt.

Looking Outside For More Opportunities In Poker

Safe to say, it would be interesting to go back in time and play in that game, I would make millions! Of course only until a 7 of a kind would show up and people would begin to understand poker just did not work like that. Anyway, in the end the game died, and I had to look for other opportunities to quench my newly wedded thirst for more poker.
