The Tong Song
As i promised, i tried to recall how to play the game "tong-its". If I'm not mistaken the game could host 3 upto 4 players. A player should win twice in the row to get the pot money. Hence, the word "tong-its" or two hits was derived.
Each player would be given 12 cards but the dealer takes 13 cards. The dealer would start the game by throwing a first card. Second player could either ... »» read more
Two Hits : Lunch and Gambling
I'm always been fascinated by Mahjong because of it's tiles pieces. It looks like an eraser and most of the time, I'm tempted to sink my teeth on it. But I know the fact, that I'll be on the losing end. I always see my neighbors gambing. Cards and sometimes Mahjong. Though our house was always their hideouts for their Mahjong session ( my dad was uber hospitable, the session comes with a free... »» read more
My-Jong
Mahjong tiles were one of my favorite stuff when I was young. I remember my dad, would always asked me to get and keep the small brown rectangular bag every now and then. And the only time I would be able to touch the real pieces was when they we're too drunk to keep it or may dad needs to rush to the bathroom and there was I cleaning up their mess. From sweeping the cigarette butts to the co... »» read more
Many are chosen, but few are called
Over the weekend, I've learned a lot. From holding my horses to keeping my bets at bay. To play with my head rather than my heart. I was able to stay at the table for about an hour and so, until I lost everything in a heartbeat. I thought I was smart enough to play tough but sitl I can't resist a 'call'. See, i got a good hand and it gets better by the minute.
One by one, playe... »» read more
The Bicycle
I'm trying to recall if there was any single house I went to, that doesn't have any deck of cards. But it seems like I can't recall any. It's like a basketball court at every street turn. What I remember was that, a pack of cards was an all time favorite "pasalubong" (treat) from abroad. My dad would use the cards to be a filler for the balikbayan boxes. And every time someone would pay him a visi... »» read more
Royal Flush-ed
Several days it's been raining like hell.Can't get out of the house. So what's the best way to kill the boredom? 3 P's. PC. Play. Poker...
Oh yeah, with a tub of strawberry yogurt and good table, I'm on my way to wonderland. As the cards was dealt and so was my yogurt, my heart can't help the excitement. So with an Ace and my King of Hearts I raised my bet to more than half of my pot. Positivit... »» read more
Ximplify Poker
I wanted to learn how to play poker but I didn’t know where to start. I often watch poker playing on TV and have heard the players and even the host utter different poker terminologies that I could not relate to. Most probably poker really has its own language. So I thought of familiarizing myself with the poker terminologies and there are really a lot so I could then build my ... »» read more
Deception Point
Deception in poker. Bluffing is a form of deception in poker. Unless a player has very good hands, he won’t call his bets if he observes that his opponent never bluffs. Bluffing is useful because it will make the opponents fold when they believe that the bluffing player has a dominant hand and the bluffing player wins the pot. What’s the difference between a pure bluff and a semi-bluff?... »» read more
Poker and Me
Playing poker online has its advantages and most of the time disadvantages. The thrill and feel of the cards on your hand. The melodic shuffling of the cards and the rhythmic sighs of the players that what I missed most playing face to face poker. Howell, time is a luxury and that I cannot afford as of this moment. That's why I might be missing a human touch in the play, but the comfort of&nb... »» read more
learning the ways and means
As the cards were dealt at one of the poker tables in kong88.com, I got excited as I saw 2 Aces for me. I was hoping in anticipation that there will be another Ace plus any pairs in the common cards to make it a fullhouse. If that’s the case then it will be a sure win for me. Then I got disappointed. It’s 3 clubs, 6 clubs, Ace, Jack of clubs, and a 4 hearts. ... »» read more
The Big 2
I played Big 2 last night at kong88.com. It’s the game I used to play with my neighbors whenever we wanted to kill time. We play this game whenever our friends gather together to have drinking sessions in the house. We bring playing cards and play this game whenever we go out of town or go outing on a beach. This game really reminds me of some good memories in the past.&n... »» read more
