There is a lower stakes cash game every other week in my town that I have been playing in for years, I definitely play way more poker than anyone else in this game. The last two times I have played in this game I have had a golden horseshoe up my arse. It is a $20 buy in cash game and I was already up a lot after 2 crazy sohe hands where I scooped. One of them I flopped the nuts in hold em and won against 2 other all in players in Omaha J high, seriously. The other wasn't much different. At that point literally all the money on the table was rebuys except for my stack, I had it all.
Dealer called a game they play called "One jack off" which is a 3 card poker guts game where you are dealt 2 face down and jacks are wild. There is a decent pot already in the middle from previous hands. I was dealt a J and Qc, on the 1,2,3 drop only myself and my already pissed off opponent held our cards. He table 2 J's and said "fuck you Mike32, I am finally taking some of your money! I conceded that yes he would. Then the third cards were dealt face up and I caught the Kc for the Royal 3 card flush, he caught the 3h. He did not realize that his 3 of a kind (or smaller straight flush) was a loser to my absolute 3 card poker nuts. When the guy next to me gave him the bad news he fired the cards across the room and left. He did rub my head on the way out so I hope he does not hate my guts, he only hates guts poker.
I was telling my wife that I actually think I am wearing out my welcome in this game. I think I have a little poker skill edge over these guys, but combine that with insane luck and it has been weird. I actually felt a bit guilty driving home, like I stomped out the friendly atmosphere. I apologize if this sounds like a sick brag thread, but I thought it was a pretty good tldr poker story.
