I’m sure just about anyone who has wagered texas hold em poker in the place where they serve alcohol has had this experience at one time or another. Everyone at the table was genuinely nice with the exception for Mr. I’m all in since I am drunk. He had such a undesirable attitude and I felt like I was on the net wagering in a freeroll for a minute because he would just keep going all in. He would sometimes just call a wager. Just about every time he would just call, I knew he had a nasty hand.
So, when it was my turn to call, I would raise with my very good pocket pairs or my ace something. Each time he stayed in a hand all the way to the river and then try to bluff. It was virtually as if he sought to hand out his cash.
I wagered at that specific table for a minimum of 3 hours and I counted at least four times the man went to the Automatic Teller Machine and came back with at least $200 in chips. I would say I probably got a minimum of half of what he delivered to the table.
The following day, after I got house and counted my profits, I type of felt poor for succeeding all that cash. Except then again, that dude shouldn’t have been playing hold’em poker even though he was intoxicated!
Several men and women may say that if I have to question my activities, then yeah, it probably wasn’t the proper point to do. But, do I really feel poor about it, not truly.
My opinion on taking a drunken person’s cash at the poker table is that if they’re idiotic enough to play even though intoxicated and is being careless, then have at it!
