Few questions

[ydd]

1) How is the dealer chosen if there are a pair on the deal?

2) Always thought all five cards count - But think it is ignored for two pair - is this correct (on here) and if it is does the kicker count in real games

3) Sure this one has been asked before - but what are the little holes for on the edge of the table

and finally - to make this more of a discussion thread:

4) What's your favoutire and least favourite tables?

Mine are
Fav: 200k Turbo - normally do well on it
Least fav (But the one I seem to play most lol) - Baz Ultra - Starts off OK but blinds make it a lottery if you don't get a good start your forced to go all-in too quickly IMO

[stef69666]

Some good questions:
1) Goes by suited rank I think - Spades, Hearts, Clubs, Diamonds
2) I have noticed this before several times - but don't know the answer
3) I reckon they're cup holes lol - either that or they double up as pool/snooker tables

Fav - Any Turbo Table
Worst - Anyone I lose on lol

[TIDDLYW1NK]

Q2 THE SAME RULES APPLY HERE AS ANYWHERE ELSE, THE KICKER ALWAYS PLAYS. WHAT I THINK MIGH BE CONFUSING YOU IS THIS.YOU HOLD ACE 10, YOUR OPPONENT HOLDS ACE 9. THE BOARD READS ACE, KING, KING, DEUCE, JACK.YOU BOTH NOW HAVE ACES AND KINGS WITH A JACK KICKER. YOUR 10 DOES NOT BEAT HIS 9 'COS NEITHER OF THEM IS USED TO MAKE THE BEST 5 CARD HAND. I HOPE THIS ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION M8

[ydd]

I thought that too but I'm fairly convinced I saw one where that wasn't the case (Think it was to a King kicker)

[CaptainSandy]

Best 5 cards ALWAYS count.

[MichaelVitelli]

hmmmmm i have a question, do stupid questions require a stupid answer??????

1) if that is the case then, how is the dealer chosen if there are a pair on the deal? WELL if cards have been allready dealt then the dealer has allready dealt them and so the dealer was allready chosen and i dont think the dealer can be switched in the middle of a hand unless he she is going to piss or crap in their pants. i guess maybe if the dealer has a heart attack they can be replaced in the middle of a hand but other then that i really dont understand what you mean by the the deaker being CHOSEN if theres a pair, that just doesnt make logical sense as far as a question is concerned.

do all 5 cards count?
2)i think that you wanted it to be the way that you think you seen it cause all 5 cards do count and always did and you never ever saw it any diff here or anywhere else unlass you play with your friends and they dont understand poker (i have seen that before)

what are the little holes for
3)the little holes are there for you to stick your little brain in

fav tables
4)i cannot afford to have a fav or least fav table. since i have so many chips i cannot afford to spend my time on any tables that i want and i am linited to playing on the 4 big money buy in minis and the 2 highest buy in ring tables because if i play any other tables then i am wasting my time because they dont pay out enough for me to win enough to cover the 5% tax and i just dont have that many hours in a day to waste on other tables. thats the price you have to pay here for being one of the better players.

roflmao but i hav to agree wi askin stupid questions n getin stupid ansers

[stef69666]

Sometimes you guys can be soooo rude.

Hare dare you make fun of YDD - so you think his questions are stupid - if this is the case shut up and don't bother answering his posts.

If the world and all that lived on it understood everything there would never be a need to have questions - people learn at different rates and understand different things - how dare you belittle them because of this.

MV - I know that you have your opinions but this is the 3rd or 4th post I have seen you mock people in recently - Now I know you are a decent guy but why do you feel the need to act as though you're not!!!!

Shaun - I know you like to post and you always post in reference to the thread but have your own opinion at least - 'nice or well said' comments directed at someone else's reply doesn't really constitute as a fair answer and in my book therefore counts as a form of spamming.

Now I'm sorry if I have caused offence but for Godness sake please consider other people's feeling before belittling them on a post!!!!!!

[BigA1]

I think that YDD meant on question #1 is how is the deal first determined when a game or mini tournament first starts.
I believe that it is the highest FIRST card dealt. If two aces are dealt, the button would be placed with the person who had the first ace. The person to the left would become the small and large blind. Please note that the cards are always dealt clockwise.

Of course that is what I meant - I thought that was pretty obvious to anyone bar a retard.

Why would I want it that way? that's even more ridiculous than suggesting using paragraphs is the same as not using them.

maybe so - at least I'd need all of them rather than just the one for yours. However I'm sure you'd be fascinated to know that rather than for post-labotomal waste they are indeed meant to be cup holders as Stef suggested. An example can be seen here: <<>>
For your information the reason I asked was that I have been asked to make one. However having not seen a real one I just wondered if the ones here were representative and the holes were just aesthetic or for some other reason which might even have been something traditional. I would haved ask for your help build it but I didn't realise you're not allowed to go near sharp tools just yet!

How anal is that? - hahahahahaha

[CaptainSandy]

An excellent response YDD

[marymargaret]

I agree with Stef about the rudeness 100%
There is no better response to this than the one given.
Most excellent respose YDD
I was always taught growing up and always told my children, No question is a dumb question.

Yet ANOTHER FINE EXAMPLE of the HUMILITY, EMPATHY, and the caring DESIRE TO HELP of the one and only (thank GOD!) Michael Vitelli. Keep it up, MV, maybe it won't be long until you're banned AGAIN, and maybe, just MAYBE, these forums and site can get back to what they're supposed to be about: HELPING PEOPLE LEARN.

I'm done with you, man. sick of reading your bile. if you can't say something helpful or nice, please please PLEASE SHUT THE HECK UP!!!!!

LOL, this whole thing is a poop shoot!!
