Luck on the river

Mark » 11 March 2009 » In General Poker »

One of the things I enjoy the most about playing poker is watching the flop, turn and river cards being dealt.  You just never know whats coming your way… are you going to have some luck on the river?

How often have you been sitting there with a good starting hand and you end up with nothing at the end – because of the community cards… or you are sitting there with nothing and suddenly a straight, a flush or three of a kind comes your way…. thank you dealer!!!  More like thank you Lady Luck!!!!

And thats why if you just hang in there, somtimes your luck can turn on the turn card, or turn on the river… and why even the best of the poker pros can be beaten by a rank outsider in poker tournaments (ok maybe the rookies have played the odd hand or two of online poker to be able to beat the pros…).
