BW and I decided to give the $100 tourney a go on Sunday. Turned out to be the shortest tourney i've ever played!
On the first hand, there is one limper from middle position, and I get pocket Queens on the button so i raise 5x the big blind. Both blinds fold to the limper, who calls my raise. Flop comes 335, so i, figuring i for sure have the best hand, bet 200. Limper calls. I figure he must have a middle pair, lower than mine, like maybe 77 or 88. Turn bring a blank, so I shove all in. Needledick calls and turns over 3/7. Are you fucking kidding me? You called a decent pre-flop raise with that crap???!!! I get no help on the river and lose to the limper's 3 of a kind, of course. My $100 got me about 30 seconds of tournament fun!
Oh well, at least the first person to bust out gets a free cocktail. I gladly accepted it, and several more after that to help the pain, so the black widow got to drive us home!!
Ahh, well, i guess that's what makes poker fun: each person has the right to play whatever hands they wish....
