You did everything right until the river in hands 1 and 2 and you played hand 3 ok, I like the raise to find out where you are on the flop. I would think that he's on a draw since he just called your raise, but you cant stop him from doing that anyway. If you play solid, you'll get your money back. Don't cap with the 2nd nut flush with 4 spades out there. and I think you can just call with trip Q's bc you're beat by a flush and boat.
The path
of the righteous man is beset on
all sides by the inequities of the
selfish and the tyranny of evil
men. Blessed is he who, in the
name of charity and good will,
shepherds the weak through the
valley of darkness, for he is truly
his brother's keeper and the finder
of lost children.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those
who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.
And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

Last night I stayed up late playing poker with Tarot cards. I got a full house and four people died.

1st hand: Just call the river.2nd hand: I am pretty shocked no one has mentioned how horrible this PF limp is. Raise PF. Call the river raise.stop posting results.
i saw him at the riverbank. he was breaking bread and giving thanks. with crosses made of pipes and planks. leaned up against the nitrous tanks.
he said take a hit. hold your breath and i'll dunk your head. then when you wake up, you'll be high as hell and born again.
