Where have I heard this before?

Tuesday night at the Friendship Club.

Dealer: "There's the last card. Johnny Mac is first to act."

Johnny Mac: "I bet $6"

Dealer: "Mr. Singletary, $6 to you."

Mr. Singletary: "I call."

Dealer: "OK, show 'em... Looks like Mr. Singletary has the nut flush... and... full house down here for Johnny Mac, fours full of aces."

Dumbass #1: "Why didn't you bet the full $12?"

Dumbass #2 (The "Hat Man"): "I'll tell you why! He didn't know what he had! He misread his hand! HAR HAR!"

Johnny Mac: "HA HA - you got it! I'm a freakin' idiot! You guys caught me! Duuuuuuh! "

Mr. Singletary: (very thoughtfully and slowly) "No, no, no. He knew what he was doing. If he had bet $12 I would have folded."

Dumbass #1: Really? An ace-high flush is a pretty good hand!"

Mr. Singletary: "It doesn't beat a full house! I thought he was just betting a smaller flush!"


Honestly, I still don't think those guys understood my reason for the $6 bet, even after Mr. Singletary explained it himself.
