Also, the dollar sign goes in front of the number.

Also, the most money won by an FFRer is $780,000 so you have some work to do.

Real money in a real casino in a real event.

It's fun, in Canada, you can do everything at the age of 18 (buying beer, going at the casino, going in bars, watching porn on the internet, etc...

That's not all true. It may differ depending on where in Canada you live...

You also can't buy cigarettes in Canada without being over 19.

AA is the best hand to start out with, but it doesn't necessarily mean I want it to begin with. I'd much rather take suited face cards.

Congrats anyways though.

AK Suited > Pocket Aces

AK suited can set you up for a royal flush, flush, straight.
AA will probably get you 3 of a kind, full house, 4 of a kind.

Sorry, you lose.

Try again.

Pocket Aces is the best starting hand.

You think you're going to make a straight, flush, or royal flush every time?

It's rare enough just to pair one of your cards, and with A-K suited, pairing one of your cards is bad news. If you pair your King, you can only win if you pair it again. If you pair your Ace, you lose.

You're literally begging for three suited cards or 10-J-Q.

In fact, they say A-K is the hand most people bust with, because it looks so nice but it ends up losing to something like pocket fives. When you have two overcards (A-K) versus a bottom pair (5-5), the chances are 50% that one of these hands will win pre-flop.

I think the pre-flop math on AA vs AK is like 80% to 20% in favor of AA.

Edit: Nope, just calculated it. 89% to 11%.

Even if you get one of the best flops imaginable and pair your King along with two suited cards that help your straight, you don't pass the 50% odds mark.

Oh, I wouldn't want AK over AA, but it doesn't mean that AA is the end-all of all hands. I will certainly play AA every time I get it, but not to the extent that some people are describing it.

Re: just made 1000$ in less than 2 minutes.

I have the worst luck. Anytime I play AA, I always end up getting beat. Someone always managing to get trips of something against me, or a flush. It's pretty annoying.

I don't think anybody will wait until they're 18 if they want to watch porn.

I'm not saying I'd lay down AA. I'm saying it's not much of an accomplishment to win with AA, and that it's not much of a strategy to wait until you get AA.

i dont wait for AA, i play any pocket pair 7 or higher and 2 face cards.

Squeek, you seem to be leaving out the human factor when it comes to gambling.
