Card Night 27-Mar-2023

When Jack called a round of Screw Your Neighbor, it led to a heated discussion as to whether or not the player on the button would be “king stopped” if he drew a king off the top of the deck. Jack didn’t quite understand the situation initially, but after a lot of overlapping input from everyone, Jack decided that the player would be king stopped off the deck. Jerry felt that the proponents of that rule (in particular Mark DeVol who had been particularly vocal during the discussion), had forced the argument to continue until Jack made the decision that he did (when earlier it had appeared Jack would make the opposite decision), and Jerry refused to participate in the game.

Card Night 14-Mar-2023

Bill Connor won $384.00 tonight, a new Card Night record (beating Bill Lindsay’s $357.00 record set on 14-Mar-2017). Bill Connor now has the record for biggest Card Night win and biggest Card Night loss ($500.00 on 25-Oct-2022).

One pot that helped Bill set that record was on a hand of Pass the Buck Hi-Lo Declare with Down-Cards Wild. At showdown it was just Bill and Glen left. Glenn had J-J-J-4 up, and it was clear he also had a jack in the hole based on the way he had played the hand. Bill had 2-3-4-4 up. Glenn ended up going both ways (with the wheel for low and five 4s for high), but Bill went low only and revealed the case 4 down for a wheel as well. Since a player can’t win both ways if he ties another player, Bill scooped a big pot. (Glenn did win a small $7.25 jackpot as a “consolation”.)

 PLAYER   TONIGHT’S 
   RESULT
 Bill C  +$384.00
 Chris  ‑$25.00
 David D  ‑$82.00
 Glen  +$25.00
 Jack  ‑$172.00
 Jeff  ‑$117.00
 Jerry  ‑$215.00
 Mark D  +$204.00
Jackpot is now $9.00.
