Wife rivers me with a Royal Flush

So last night the wife and I are playing a little "adult" heads-up NLHE, not for money, but with chips while having cocktails. The game stakes were; when one took all the others chips (we only started with like 20 chips each) the winner got to ask a "truth or dare" of the other, then we divided the chips back up and started again.

I'm WAY short stacked with about 8 chips left and get dealt:

on the button.

The blinds are 1 chip for the SB and 2 chips for the BB.

She calls the BB and I push all in. (my 6 remaining chips, lol)

She calls and flips over:



Good call, I think to myself, but I'm ahead.

So we set out the flop:



Right on, I'm all set to double up with trip Queens!

The turn comes:



Ruh Roh, deep inside my mind does its best Scooby Doo voice...

Just no Jack or Diamond and I'm good to go...

She's already counting what's left of her chips.

Then the river....
Not just a Jack, not just a diamond, but:





Needless to say, she got all my chips that hand, and I took a lap around the front of the house wearing only my sandals for that beat!

Re: Wife rivers me with a Royal Flush

lol on the dare

Don't see a ROyal Flush all that often in live games, but I saw one yesterday. I was at Caesars Indiana playing $4 $8 yesterday and the board ended up with a Diamond Royal FLush - one idiot tried to bet the other two players out of the pot. Everyone has the absolute nuts

I made a k high straight flush online earlier day in a sit and go (9 10 in my hand). I don't count the on-line ones as all that significant.

Re: Wife rivers me with a Royal Flush

One word... Divorce... LOL kidding.


You said NO JACK NO DIAMOND but it was only the jack of diamonds that beat you. Any other jack or diamond and you were doubled up.

Re: Wife rivers me with a Royal Flush

What a waste of a "Royal" Should have been in a big game or somewhere that gives a bonus for it.
