Home Game II

I was reminded at bowling last night (646ish series, tyvm) that I had taken a picture of a nasty suckout hand at the home game.

I feel obligated to post it now.

I wasn't involved, but our favorite suckout artiste, Eric the Madman, was in the middle of it as usual. Eric has a knack for sucking out in the most glorious fashion.

Backstory

If I recall correctly, it was the first night ever of Home Game. The pot was probably raised by Eric the Madman* and called by Carl the Maniac*. The flop comes:



Carl, must have been a blind - or limp called from early position - because he leads at the pot. Eric starts rambling about Jacks... do you have a Jack? Why so much? blah blah blah... After some of this he decides to go all in. Carl calls and shows:



for two pair.

Eric shows:



For, well, nothing but a pair of Tens. The turn is:



Eric sucked out a set v. Carl's two pair! OMG! The crowd goes wild!

The river is:



Now the crowd really goes wild! Eric sucked out Tens full of 3s v Carl's 3s full of Jacks. Ewwww!

We return to the regularly scheduled program....


I think Eric (33) got it all in on flop v Derick (AQ):


Another glorious resuckout for Eric!

P.S. You gotta love the intertubes. I got those card gifs Here. Scroll down a bit to get a zip file with all the images.
