My Journey As A Professional Poker Player (28 Viewers)

Ordered two hot cocoas made with milk and whip cream

Waitress brought them made with water and no whipcream

No matter what happens now my day is irrevocably ruined!
I know how you feel. I went through the Wendy’s drive-thru yesterday. Ordered a Coke, but got a Diet Coke.

Thoughts and prayers.
 
Busted a shorty. He limps button at 300/600/600 with about 8k

SB limps, we make it 4k from BB with :as::td:, Button calls half his stack

Flop :th::9h::3c:

We shove, he calls with :jc::ts:

Turn :7c: but we fade the river

Raise A7 off from HJ to 2200 (blinds 400/800/800), BB defends with a 45k stack (we cover)

Flop A77. We both check, turn 10, we both check. River 8. I bet 2k, he calls with K8 off

Next hand new guy at tables raises in EP with about a 35k stack, to 1600

We call with 99. Flop 864, he check-calls our 2k bet. Turn Q putting three hearts, we both check. River Ace hearts, we both check, he has 33 and my 99 is good (neither of us has the flush)

Blinds 400/800/800 we raise to 2200 in MP with :tc::th:

Elderly bluffer on left calls, kid in his late 20's in BB with about 55k raises to 8500. He's been pretty solid so give him credit and lay it down, at best I'm flipping
 
Raise to 3k in HJ at 500/1k/1k with :ah::2d:

Old guy in BB defends

We check down a board of :qd::ts::8d::6c::3s:

I announce Ace-high, he flips over :kc::5h: and we are good. Strange hand to defend OOP
 
Those chips are some of the literal worst. I get angry everytime I see them. Especially knowing that they have better ones to use.

In the rooms defense, the really nice tourney chips they don't have enough for these larger field multiday events

Typically see them in satellites and one-day events
 
At a home game I would do that no problem.

In a casino? NO WAY NO HOW. All chip exchanges go through the dealer. PERIOD. They have staff for that. Not my job. Leaves room for mistakes, collusion etc etc.
Pretty customary thing in my experience. Speeds up color ups. I do get your concern though.
 
Seems bush league to me to have players do colour ups at a casino. If timing is a problem then the dealer should be colouring up chips in the pot out of his tray the last 5 min before break.

Here in America we're all about helping our fellow man, unlike Communist Canada!

USA USA USA!
 
Blinds 1k/2k/2k

CO makes it 6k, SB calls, we are in BB with :th::td:

We raise to 22k. CO folds, SB shoves all-in and covers.

We wind up folding :(
