I really enjoyed this Pico, ty.

I was once at this poker game in a town I won't mention. It was the AA game, I was never in it but my good friend was so they invited me. Just a $20 buy in at this dentist's house. I was big into poker at the time and had watched this Annie Duke video on FBI tells at the table. might seem dumb because it is Annie but she knows some cool shit.

Anyway my $20 was up to about $140 and they were getting antsy, my 1st time there and I was crushing. I was known as the tight player who could be bluffed out of a big pot. I had 2nd pair if I remember correctly vs the Dentist himself. the pot was like $60 I think. He threw a bet about 3/4 of the pot at me. I eyed him up, which he didn't like. I noticed that his hands were clasped with his thumbs pointed down and tucked in. Annie said to look for that. I called and he steamed. He said "Why would you ever call that you are tight, tell me or you will never be invited back here". I said "If I tell you I get the feeling I won't anyway so Ok, you were thumbs were down" and imitated what his hands were doing (in a non insulting way).

I left with roughly $300 that night. They congratulated me on the record night in the history of their game and never invited me back.
