Have to share this poker hand I played last night here.

I was the dealer and here is my Hand:







$20 big blind. I raised $50 Pre-Flop.
One or two opponents called.
FLOP:












One opponent, Mr B, raised to $400. Then I raised my bet to $1400. At this point, my guess was that

1) I still have the higher hand,
2) he has two clubs, expecting to make a flush.




Obviously, my $1000 raise was to drive him off the game. However, he called by matching up by extra $1000.
TURN:













My opponent called for All-in: $2100
.
Then I was quite sure that his hand could also make a pair, either with the 8 or 9 out there. I did not think it was a straight at that point, quite sure he was still waiting for the flush. Girls' instinct.


I still had the highest hand at that point without the river. So, if he would not have made the flush or getting the 8 or 9 (3-of-a-kind), I would have won this hand. Therefore, I called for $2100, which makes a lot of sense to me because I bet $3500 for another $3600 with well over 50% of chance of winning.






RIVER:





DAMN IT! HE MADE THE FLUSH!!!!









Eventually his hand was:









So my guess was absolutely correct. His actual outs that could beat me were:

1) any clubs to make a flush(7 cards, because I have one club myself.)

2) all 6 or J to make a straight (6 cards, two already counted in Clubs)

3) any 9 to make a 3-of-a kind (2 cards)

Total: 15 cards


All other 29 cards would have made me the winner, but I lost $3550 in this one hand.

Folks, did I play it right?

this morning i was watching the movie "The Illusionist" at home as I am a big fan of Edward Norton. The movie was great so I went on to IMDB.com to check out its ratings and reviews. Then I clicked on Edward's Bio and learn that






1) he is a Yale grad in History!! 2) his father is an attorney for President Jimmy Carter!








Then I went on to check out the bio of my other favorite actor,
Wenworth Miller (Michael Scotfield in Prison Break), and learnt that
1) he is a Princeton grad in English Literature (how romantic!), and
2) his father is ALSO a is a Lawyer and a graduate of Yale!!










So, if possible, I will try to get married with a handsome lawyer to produce smart and charming actor offspring!

各位觀眾!!!
不得不佩服我
看穿人內涵的能力。這個大冷門也tip中﹐大家應該無話可說了吧。哈哈!!
(為此非常自滿!!而且為張小姐興奮!!)
可以學司姐講﹕邊個係人﹐邊個係鬼﹐我睇得好清楚﹗﹗

港姐心水post===>http://ericayuen.blogspot.com/2007/
其實她只是胖了一點﹐看真點﹐她確是跟曹敏莉很像﹗有同樣濃厚的東方美。
以我看來﹐她昨晚的表現不過不失吧﹐應該是見評判那天話語之間impress了各位評判。

如果沒看錯的話﹐她是個有非常獨立思想﹐有主見﹐有原則﹐有理想的女孩。我喜歡她的“真”和誠懇﹐說一口流利英語﹐有國際視野。今年的評判團果然掂﹗
大眾只管批評她的體形﹐也未免太膚淺了。肥就肥﹐冠軍就是冠軍。選出一個
不會於國際盛事中失禮香港的﹐比選出一個33-22-34 +一排肋骨的重要多了﹗


去年五強and三甲and冠軍中晒﹕

再轉載

可這次不是陶先生的文章。

說起來我那本
《 源 氏 物 語 》還在書架上鋪塵。(慚愧) 反而是最近想看那本擱置良久的龍應台散文﹐卻不翼而飛了。(無奈)
倒是陶先生的《快樂鄉的一天》常惹得我在梳化上哈哈大笑。
還有﹐兄﹐我在等你的《足球小將》 和高橋陽一短篇。

2003 年去淺水灣曬太陽睡著的時候被人拍醒照的﹐矇矇朧朧間變了封面﹐都幾神奇。
長頭髮的我總像乞丐。。。
明晚港姐決賽﹐好像沒人知道。

心水﹐未真的有。

看官方照﹐大概 #2﹐#7﹐ #12﹐#15﹐比較好吧。

後來發現#12跟#15的官方照有點誤導成份。


還是#1, #2﹐ #3﹐ #7
though who really cares anyway?
