My 6 year old is a donk....

Just kidding.... :D

So I'm in the early going of a $10 SNG on Party last night when the pizza guy delivers. Instead of clicking the 'away' button while I'm setting the food up for my son (6) and daughter (4), I tell my son to call out my cards as they're dealt. He dutifully calls them out and I invariably tell him to click the fold button.

Fast forward a few minutes and the doorbell rings. It's my sister in law. We're chatting for about 5 minutes by the door, which is not by the computer. I assume my son is still clicking fold as all is quiet. Moments later I hear both kids yell, 'Wooo hooo, Aces!' Naturally I excuse myself and run over to the machine. What I found, shocked me.

Here the little bugger got AK and middle position and took it upon himself to see a flop (A66). I took the reigns from there and ended up losing to K6 because the little fish didn't raise preflop. :evil:

Dammit, you just made me laugh on the phone at work. Please tell me you proceeded to explain to him the importance of raising preflop with a strong starting hand.

[Icec0o1]

Ahahaha little kids do the darnest things

I think you're actually (somehow) a worse parent than I will ever be.

No one can be that bad Supa....

Have you actually discussed the hand with him? There may have been any number of reasons for his preflop call.

just the title of this thread makes me laugh out loud every time i read it, never mind the great story that ensues.

Maybe going for the limp/reraise

Maybe if you let him play the hand out he would've made the world-class laydown.

He mumbled something about Combinatorics and then went off to watch Jimmy Neutron.

Priceless.

Love the comments Jonesyb, YosemiteMark and Phil14312 made

Personally I’d blame the daughter, she was probably encouraging him to try and trap.
Honestly if I had a penny for every 4 year old I’ve sent home crying after I busted them slow playing big slick, I'd, well...wait a minute what the f**k am I talking about?

Frankly, I find this whole thread disturbing!!

I spent 7 years as an Assistant District Attorney prosecuting Child Abusers. Truthfully, this couldn't be a more clear case of child endangerment! . . .

Any 6 year old who doesn't already know ya gotta raise in MP with AK is certainly not getting the parenting he/she is required to recieve under the law!

Please, I beg You, pay attention to your 4 year old befiore it is too late!!!. . . Or I will be coming to get ya!
