Thanks in advance

Hello Ha Doss;
Thank you---the ability to recognize excellence in handicapping is rare.
I admire your deceptive nature and would be happy to give you some poker basics.
Now here's one that has always worked well for me. If no one calls it----well then when you deal play low hole.Now Dullest doesn't feed cards to himself nor anyone else nor does he come armed with "spare" cards.What he will do is
manipulate his own hand.
Let's say you have just dealt yourself the third and last down card with the 4 up cards.---and that you have 2 3's and 2 10's up ----- and not much else down with a duece as your low hole. There are 3 others still in the hand who are not afraid of what has to be at least a full boat.
So what you do first is create a"distraction".Hopefully a woman is still playing because they make excellent marks. Point at her quickly and shreik----"HEY!! Did you just switch an up card and a down card!!!?"
While everyone looks at her......you switch your down duece for an up 3.
Now you have 4 tens.
And you have the mark in tears sobbing in denial to the point she drops out....and probably with the winning hand,too.
So now you only have two players left and your hand strength just went up.
I love poker.
Best regards,
Wild Bill Dullest
