and it's always awesome when they have tilly on, because you just sit and watch all the other players grind their teeth and summon herculean restraint to stop from just backhanding her dumb ass

That's what you call strategy, or maybe just being a sociopath. Take your pick.

This old dude we've played with a few times has a wsop bracelet.
Haha awesome. Is it from the 70's when there were like 20 contestants? Even so that's pretty fucking rad.
Probably. The guy's like 80. But he says he has played with a lot of known card players. Like that guy, uh, Johnny Chan or whatever.

There are four people left in this particular game of poker and it's getting late in the night. The chip leader is the usual guy, who has made it his habit to take my money once a week. But, looking around, we're all extremely close in chip count. I'm barely squeaking above the guy wearing oaklies in fourth. I'm dealt pocket 2's. Nice to start, but by no means a great hand. No bets, and I'm the big blind. I check.
The flop comes down. 7-9-2. We all laugh. They laugh because the shittiest hand may be the best. I'm laughing because I have trip twos. One guy raises. I call, one guy folds.
The turn. 7-9-2-9. My hand just got better. The guy across the table wearing oaklies smirks a bit, doing a quick glance at his chips. He raises half his stack. I call, the guy next to me folds. "I wasn't dealt shitty enough cards for this." Heads up.
The river comes down, and I'm trying to hide my elation. The guy with the oaklies raises big, but I don't even hear him talking. As soon as its up to me I raise him all in. He takes off his glasses, staring deep into my eyes. Daring me to show a tell. He turns over his cards and starts talking. "I'm not sure what you've got, man, but I've got an idea. I think you have the full house. Problem is, I have the better one." I look at his cards, 7-9. He's got my full house beat in one of the most unlikely series of events I have seen in poker. I know what's coming, his last check to see if he's right before he calls.
"So tell me," he says, "Do you have the full house?"
"Yes."
He grins wide and jumps from his chair, "I call man, what you got?"
The river was a 2.

Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
I'd play tekken with you... only you'd probably cream me. I'm not THAT good... but I'm better then the rest of the queers who live by me. Except my friend who would sit down for 4 hours straight and drill a character in to his skull.
We played a lot of tekken 5.
He picked up Nina once I was raping him left and right with Asuka now I just don't play anymore.
We usually do a hold'em game once every two months at our place. $10 buy-in, unlimited rebuys to 10 pm ($20 max at any given time), no buys after ten and winner take all.

Bada boom!
Had a similar sitch, but with me on the losing side, involving my wife's pocket fours.
Even weirder, quad fours hit again on the next game.
And then again at another game.
It's to the point now that if I see fours in the middle, unless I have one of them in my hand, I fold. I don't care what I've got - there's someone on the green with double fours, and they're gonna kill my straight.

Take it out of the deck and it won't ever show up again.
Because when my friend went to get his ears pierced they started at 2.

You hate J.C Denton? Do you hate freedom as well?
God damn man, J.C Denton fought through Area 51 and took the man down for you, and you have to hate on him for wearing sunnies, inside, at night.
This post doesn't add much, but some humour.
Now, on topic.
I played a $10 drunken tourny with some workmates the other night.
So, I start the hand with a pair of queens. I raise it, and everyone stays in. Out comes a Queen, King, Ace. My hand got more awesome.
Long story short, I ended up going all in just prior to the river. I got beaten with a royal flush.
Yes, I was shitty.
really
where
I know I'm late but, you too?
well, i used to
and then my friends wised up and no one plays tekken with me at all anymore

Darth actually plays pretty well.

Also everytime you scored a touch down, the other guy drank.
5/8" is 1.58cm. 2g is like 5mm maybe?
