    <span><span>I (MSUJenny on PS) have been playing cards for four years now, and taught my brother how to play about 3 years ago. I was in the other room the other day when he called me over to tell me he was about to make the best call ever. I actually laughed at him untill he pointed out to me that the guy had to be holding the exact 2 cards you'll see he was holding... check this out and let me know if you agree that it's the best call ever, I've only read about 1 similar call and it was in Super System.

    IMO this is a losing call over the long haul

    good call, not great, not best ever

    I had the other guy on 8d 10d. the push on the river was pretty a pretty big giveway

    strong play regardless, nh

    solid call, although its probably best that he forgets having ever made the call. will do more harm than good as at least in my personal experience that with hero calls, bad calls usually follow.
