Card Night 23-Aug-2016

We finally had our first double Bingo.

With just two cards left to reveal, Bill had two cards (Q-3) and Mark DeVol had one card (3).  The last two cards were Q-3 and Bill and Mark split the pot.


On another hand of Bingo, it came down to just Jeff (two cards) and Chris (one card).  Jeff took a long time to figure out which way he was going to declare, but finally decided to go low.

Chris also declared low and turned over an ace for the nuts.

Jeff disappointingly turned over A-5 for a total of six.  He had been so fixated on low that he didn’t realize he would have had an unbeatable total of 16 if he had declared high.

Chris scooped a big pot.

Oh, and Jeff was the big winner for the night.

Miguel was the “big” winner tonight, recording a $35.00 profit.  That’s the lowest since 07-Jul-2011 when Phil was the big winner, taking home $22.00.


Miguel called a Texas Hold ’em version of Blind Man’s Bluff.  Each player put one of his hole cards on his forehead so that he could not see it, but all other players could.  Players were then allowed to look at their remaining hole card.

It was actually pretty fun and played well.  As Glen put it, it was basically a one-hole-card version of Hold ’em where you might make a better hand than you expected.

As soon as everyone had arrived, Bill announced, “Oh, I see where Michael Phelps won the gold medal in the 200-Meter Butterfly,” despite the fact that we all had been avoiding the news so we could watch the race during Card Night.

Bill!

Mark DeVol had his best Card Night ever, winning $229.00.  (His previous record was $218.00 set on 18-Nov-2014.)  It could have been due to Mike Stefanidis calling $3-$6 Omaha Hi-Lo with a kill to $5-$10.  Lots of money was going into the pot tonight.
