   Royal Flush, Baby

   My grandma Delores went to the Oneida Casino near Green Bay WI for her birthday (today). She usually plays the slots, but was waiting for grandpa Don to finish up on one machine, so she decided to play some good ol' 5-card draw. The poker gods delivered her followed by on the draw. Wow.

   One quarter turned into 250 quarters (that's $62.50). She could have plugged it for 5 quarters, but who knew :p

   Happy birthday, Grandma!

   • I did grow up playing cards with both my grandmas very frequently. Mostly Cribbage and Rummy 500, but some poker :)

   • I foget to note, I also recently benefited from a straight flush, but in tournament play. I had and the flop was . The turn came and the river straightened the board with the . I got paid off well on the turn by top set but couldn't get a call on the river. How often do you root for your opponent to river a full house on you?!
