TURMEL: 3 days for New Blue to blow their big play

JCT: It's always sad for the Great Canadian Gambler 
http://SmartestMan.Ca/gambler to watch lesser players miss 
the play that would have won them the pot. 

New Blue not taking a court to declare that the Covid 
Mortality Hyped Hundredfold made it a false alarm and any  
and all restrictions based on a false threat are not 
constitutional, including the vax requirement for air travel 
domestically. 

Someday, gamblers and historians will look back at how both 
the People's Party of Canada and New Blue had the chance to 
make a spectacular winning play and blew it. The 
TajProfessor should know. 

The iconic poker movie Rounders with Matt Damon as an 
aspiring you poker player playing under the chandeliers at 
the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City. 

"We don't play together but when was the last time you saw 
one piranha eat another?"

Every poker room has it's guy called "The Professor" who 
knows the odds. I can wow many players when I tell them I 
was known as "The Professor at the Trump Taj Mahal in the 
movie! My 3.5 bet win rate per hour was way better than the 
average 2 bets per hour being touted in the magazines by the 
top professionals. The TajProfessor was so much stronger 
than the field that my win rate was top for a quarter 
century. 

Here's my favorite "Piranha story." I was the Great 
White Shark and I'm in a hand with a young Asian piranha and 
a tourist Tuna. 

With a board of K,Q,J,T, I have an Ace for a straight. I 
bet. The Piranha raises, he probably has an Ace too. Tuna 
calls, I re-raise, Piranha re-raises and Tuna calls again. 
No calls 4 bets on the turn with 3-of-a-kind hoping to make 
full house with 10 cards. 3 will pair a board card, 3 will 
pair the second board card and 3 will pair the third board 
card and 1 will hit his 4-of-a-kind! 10 winning outs. 

No pair hits the board so he can only have 4-of-a-kind, not 
a full house. If I bet out and the Piranha raises, Tuna is 
faced with a double bet and fold. To avoid that, I check. 
Piranha bets and he's only facing 1 bet so he calls. Then I 
raise and Piranha doesn't so again, he's only facing 1 bet 
and calls. So we weren't playing together but we each made 
an extra bet by knowing not to make him face a raise of 2 
bets. 

If Piranha had re-raised, I'd have looked at him with 
disdain as he might have looked at me had I bet out 
forcing him not to raise to only make us 1 bet when my check 
allowed us to get 2 bets. 

http://SmartestMan.Ca/tajprofessor lists some of the poker 
power tools I invented to help me know odds at the table 
known by no others. 

So I got to watch a lot of weaker players make lots of 
mistakes that I could never make. 

And it's sad watching New Blue blow ignore a winning move, 
especially when the kibitzer is the Great Canadian Gambler 
TajProfessor! 

This is such a winning move that even if they did it now 
with only 3 days to go, it would break the media blackout 
and make provincial, national, international news! 

Sad they don't see!
