If these guys knew what cards I’m holding, they would fold
and walk away right now, or one of them might pull a gun and shoot me in the
face. Either way, somebody is going to be flush with a big wad of cash when
this hand is through.
It’s been going on for an hour, and two players have had the
best luck among the four of us. Now I’m down to a few bucks and these killer cards,
and I’m wondering what it’s going to cost to stay in the game. A better
question might be what it’s going to take for me to get out of here with all
the money on the table without getting hurt.
Looking into the cold hard eyes of the player across from
me, I start thinking about an exit strategy. Should I keep my cool and let the
game run its course in quiet, or would an abrupt offensive move be a better
bet? My initial instinct is to be aggressive. It’s always been that way, but
that behavior has sometimes gotten me into a lot of tight spots, and I’ve got
the scars to prove it.
