Good grief, Lyndon! He got off to a huge start and never stopped. A whopping $169.00 win. If Glen hadn’t taken down some big pots in 2-11 Poker at the end of the night, Lyndon would have been the only winner… on a table with eight players!
Speaking of 2-11, it turned out to be the last game we played for the night. Jason called it when the deal got around to him, and everyone let out a collective groan when Glen called it immediately after.
The gang was treated to two games of Buck ’em tonight, thanks to Mary and Bill. On one round, playing five out of seven cards, Mary went in high, and Paul called her off. They flipped over their cards: Paul had a flush, Mary had a full house.
On another round, again playing five out of seven cards, Lyndon thought long and hard before finally declaring high. Bill then called low, and Lyndon again thought long and hard before finally checking Bill off. Lyndon had gone in high with a flush, but his 7-high was not low enough to beat Bill’s 6-high. Lyndon had to pay Bill over forty dollars for that hand, but he ended up getting all his money back and a little more when he won the game on the next deal.
Mark DeVol always mixes things up in December by calling games that we don’t typically play. This week the game was Deuces Wild Guts, a game we used to play constantly, but that has fallen out of the rotation in recent years. The game only lasted three or four hands before Lyndon (of course) won the final pot.
