There's a certain type of guy that poker players both love and hate. He's the clown who puts all of his chips at risk on almost every hand, regardless of how strong or weak the hand is. 1/2 of the time you know the dude is bluffing, but your hand isn't quite strong enough to call his ridiculously overpriced bets. So this time you fold, figuring you'll just wait for the next hand... but hey... lucky for you the guy sitting beside you has pocket Aces, and he's equally annoyed at the bluffing jackass, and he gladly calls. In a moment of schadenfreude that only a poker player can appreciate, the jackass is forced to embarrassingly turn over his cards and reveal an 8/3 offsuit. Now, now every single person at the table is thinking the exact same thing:
You bluffed 1 time too many, and finally you got caught.
Welcome to George Bush's life.
