I was playing in my regular 3-5 NL game in Reno. The table was playing very tight/passive so I was picking up a lot of pots and limping in with a lot of hands in position.

Two players had called in middle position so I decided to call with 8c 6c and the BB checked, so we took a flop four handed. The flop came 2 4 5 rainbow. I loved this flop. Not because I had a made hand, but because I had a sneaky double belly buster needing a 3 or 7 to make my straight, with position, and tight passive players in front of me. The first player to act bet 15$. He is pretty tight so I put him on a middle pair like 66-99, or a hand like A 5 or A 4. The next player folded and I decided to raise the minimum to 30$. I did this for two reasons. I thought that I could possibly win the pot right there, because the player who led out was pretty tight, or at worst I would get called, and he would check to me on the turn, giving me the option to take another free card to hit my straight.

About a month ago I was playing at the Excalibur's 1/3$ NL game on a Saturday night. Normally this game is at least 9 handed to about 2 a.m.
But after that the 3-4 tables they have going usually become short handed until there is a good amount to combine tables.


Here are the chip counts and a brief summary of the opponents.


Seat 1: Me-425$
Seat 2: Calling station#1-300$
Seat 3: Super agg. tricky#1-280$
Seat 4: Super agg. tricky#2-400$
Seat 5: Calling station#2-200$
Seat 6: Older tight guy-300$

Seat 3 and 4 are friends and you can tell they have played a lot before. They make good calls and good laydowns, but they are both straight from a club and are pretty buzzed. They are raising about 80% of the hands pre flop and re-raising pretty much everyone.

This hand came up after I was playing with this lineup for about an hour.

Seat 1 is the button.
Seat 2 SB
Seat 3 BB
Seat 4 6$ live straddle

Pre flop seat 5 limps in under the gun, seat 6 folds, and I call 6$ on the button with Qs Qh,...

I might just be the best prop bettor EVER! lol.

So me and my friend are talking about the Rob & Big episode where he eats 6 powdered donuts in 3 minutes....and somehow we get to talking about the famous saltine cracker one...where you cant eat 6 in 60 seconds...I said thats fucking easy...and we decided on 5 saltine crackers in 60 seconds...for 100$

We walk from the poker room at the bellagio to the cafe...dont even go in, and just tell them to give us 3 packs of the saltine crackers...about 10 mins later they give them to us and we give them a 5$ tip lol.

We wanted it to be accurate so he busted out his phone to record it and cause it has a timer...I stuck 3 in at first and right away thought I was fucking done...I felt like quiting lol...but I said fuck it I have a minute.

There where like 4 of us and they are all busting up laughing so that def didnt help lol. I got done with the 3 at like 35 seconds...and when I stuck the other two in my mouth it felt like there was 10 of them...i...
