Phil brought his son Joey to Card Night because they were both going to pick up Phil’s wife Judy at the airport around 9:00 p.m. Joey joined in for one round of Texas Hold ’em, then sat and watched the antics of the evening unfold.
On a round of 7½-21½, Paul stopped taking cards when he had 9-6-A. He thought that the game was 7-27 and that he had just made a 26 for high! Luckily for Paul, the maximum-one-dollar-total-per-betting-round rule was in effect, otherwise he would have been contributing quite a bit more to the pot (and maybe even raising himself).
Paul lost to Mike’s 22.
Three jackpots were paid out tonight:
- Happy Pineapple: $11.25 to Lyndon with four queens
- Four-Three: $7.25 to Lyndon with four jacks
- Omaha Hi-Lo: $7.25 to Mary with a 6-high straight flush (which for some reason is by far the most common straight flush at Card Night)
That makes seven jackpots paid out in the last two Card Nights.
The record for most jackpots paid out over two consecutive Card Nights is nine, set back on 20-Dec-2004 (five) and 27-Dec-2004 (four).
With all these payouts, jackpot now stands at a measly $2.00.
