My first greatest hand blog was in tournament play, this greatest hand was in a cash game. Playing in a 2 -4 fixed game at the Seminole HardRock Tampa, I was playing for about 3 hours and up 80 - 90 bucks when the first "BEST HAND" ever happened. The HardRock used to have a Royal Flush Jackpot. I never really paid attention to it because what are the odds of hitting a Royal Flush.... Ten players and I'm in mid position and I'm dealt ACE - 10 Spades. Being it's a fixed game, of course everyone calls. I think there is one raiser so 10 of us are in for 4 bucks. The flop is Ks,Qs, 4h. Betting goes ck, ck bet2, fold, call, I raise 2 bucks, then there are calls all around. Great 9 players now. The turn 9s which gives me the nut flush. Nice!! Betting goes ck, ck, bet 4 fold, I reraise making it 8 and everyone else folds. So there are 2 of us left. As the dealer is getting ready to river the card, I looked up and said "GIVE IT TO ME"..... well needless to say the dealer looked at the card first then proceeded to shake. STOP BS'ing me man. I tell him just put it DOWN..... BANG, THE JACK OF SPADES !!!!! BINGO the dealer yells, I'm like NO SHIT BINGO !!! but the dealer had to say it... What a beautiful thing.... But not knowing how everything worked at the casino, the poker room manager came over and held up the next hand. I'm like whats going on as the dealer is counting the cards. Whats this? I ask. The room manager said we have to make sure all the cards are there.... At this moment, I look at the dealer and STATE... If you are short, I'M COMING OVER. He laughed and said don't worry they are all here. Well there better not be extra cards either.... Now after 20 minutes of counting and security instant reply, the room boss sez "ITS GOOD".... The jackpot was 14,898.00. The dealer got $700 from me and everyone at the table got $100. There is one more hand I'll blog about at a later time.... Unfortunately, I can't tell you about the rest of my night, but rest assured it was a wild one !!!!
