Would you please share a favorite hand you have played with me SoCool Bob?
I would be Happy to ... if I can think of one.
OK .. here goes ...
I was thinking of saying .. I don't have a favorite hand ... as though to say that in my poker playing I certainly would not be inclined to emphasize any one hand. The process of "winning" in Poker is actually ... a long one involving multiple decisions about many hands.
However ... I certainly acknowledge that if I would continue to think about it I would undoubtedly be able to come up with one or two that were memorable ... probably for me, because of what they taught me ... for the first or second or third time ... or maybe one of the moments when I actually WON one of those MULTIPLE PLAYER GAMES which can involve .. a whole lot of folks. Winning a MULTIPLE PLAY Tournament does have the feeling of having overcome
TREMENDOUS ODDS!
I recall now that one of the times I won one of these Multi-Player Tournaments ... 1,000 players or more ... ONLINE ... I never even got to see what happened. We were head to head, the hand came down, we quickly went all-in, near as I can recall it looked like a CERTAIN LOSER for ME ... my Attention got distracted, next thing I knew the cards were already gone and I was being declared The Winner !!!
Which taught me, I guess, even I can, what they call,
SUCK OUT !!!
The Tao Of Winning A Million Playing Poker
A little intelligence, a lot of skill and a little bit of luck and
ANYONE can
WIN one of these things.
Still .. the first answer that does come back is this one ...
I've got, and so do other poker players, names for hands. Any combination of two cards can have a name.
49 .. Forty Niners
KK .. Cowboys
22 .. Deuces
55 .. Speed Limit
10 2 ... The Doyle Brunson
99 .. Phil Helmuth
A 9 .. Gus Hansen
88 .. Monkey Balls ô¿~

Ace Ace ... American Airlines
My favorite hand therefore ... is one that begins with AA
AA ... SoCô¿ôL Bob













So ... in the course of pursuing my Win A Million Goal I have paused to reinforce all the other good things I've learned .. and thought ... so I've begun adding new names for some hands based on
Scripture ... and/or other powerful lessons that I've learned that help me achieve things.
A) Gotta Put God First ...

Ace Ace ... has become for me .. God and The Son In Heaven Together
I have a way of "liking" that hand, now, regardless of who gets it ¤¿¤
As opposed to AK

... God and The Son on Earth
or KK


... King of Kings
QQ

... Rice A Roni ... The San Francisco Treat etc. etc.
Of course ... 22


.... is a celebration to me
222 ....





!!!
Those, so far, are some of my comments on my favorite hands.
AS FOR US / THE GS BUNCH ... I'm Becoming More Convinced
We Can Win This Thing ... One Way And/Or The Other
THIS MUST BE THE YEAR !!!
