The Limits in the Poker Room
In the poker room, the limit is the amount of money that each player can raise. You can only raise a certain amount of money in a single round of play. Limit poker is the most common form of poker in the United States. However, the margins for error are less forgiving in the limit game than in the no-limit version.
A fixed-limit game is a type of poker where all of the bets are made in fixed increments. The terms "big bet" and "small bet" are often used to describe this type of betting. It can be difficult to learn the rules of implied odds and other concepts in a no-limit game, but a fixed-limit game makes these concepts easier to understand.
Limit poker is typically played with a limit of $2/4 or $4/8. Many poker rooms offer these limits. These limits allow you to make a small bet before the flop and a large bet on the turn or river. This is especially helpful for new players. If you don't have a good hand, you can't lose too much money. There are several poker rooms that offer a no-limit version of Hold'em, Draw, Omaha and Stud.
Traditionally, the betting structures for tournaments are fixed-limit, pot-limit and spread-limit. A no-limit game is usually played in a no-limit format, while a pot-limit game is usually played in a limit or no-limit format. Both of these variations are popular, but it is important to know which one you're playing before you go to a tournament.
Poker rooms often offer gaming promotions and dining specials. They also provide event tickets. Among the most popular games in the world are no-limit hold 'em and Texas hold 'em. No-limit hold 'em is a more exciting game than limit poker, and it's also more common for beginners to try no-limit hold 'em.

Nikolai and Price going to an evening game of poker with some of Nik's "friends", John sitting with his guard up as he's surrounded by a group of dangerous international criminals, all of them carrying guns, all of them glancing at him with a curious look. Price is uncomfortable but doesn't show it, while Nikolai is awfully relaxed considering the situation.
The evening goes on, drinks, cigars and hearty laughs are shared around the table, the bets reaching numbers Price doesn't even make in half a year. It would be a problem, if he wasn't winning most of the rounds, piles of cash gathering around him as he feels the tension build in the room. One of the younger guys, another russian speaker, starts getting an attitude about it around two hours in, and Nikolai immediately puts him in his place with a single sentence Price doesn't understand, his voice booming, as intimidating as he could be, a heavy silence falling inside the room as the lad with an attitude sits back down, eyes not even daring to look at Nik. The silence is only broken by Nik again, a warm laugh leaving his lips and the other men joining him, their nervousness barely hidden.
It had been so easy for Nik to command the room, and even after the tension had diminished, Price could see how much respect these men had for him, while also clearly being scared shitless of the man. Price had rarely felt more attracted to him as he did at that moment, and the wink and smirk Nikolai gave him when he noticed him looking in his direction absolutely did not help.
John eventually left the table, excusing himself for a moment but squeezing Nik's hand briefly as he got up, moving deeper in the building they were using for their game.
A minute later and it's Nik's turn to excuse himself, quickly finding Price who immediately grabs him by the collar of his open shirt and presses his lips against his, Nik hungrily returning the kiss and pushing John against a nearby wall.
When they return to the table, hair tousled, face flustered, all it takes is one glance from Nikolai to shut the others up. This is his territory, this is where he's comfortable, surrounded by dangerous men who show him respect and never dare to cross him.
It's easy for John to forget how natural this all is for his partner, and if Nikolai brought him here tonight to assert his dominance and show off a little, just so he could impress John, well, that mission sure was a success.
#cod#nikprice#cod nikolai#john price#captain price#nikolai cod#yeah okay I couldn't fall asleep last night and the sudden thought of shady poker night came to mind#I just fucking love seeing Nik just fully embracing his shady side#I think most of the time he'd keep this side of him separated from Price#but come on he knows the effect of him being the top dog in the room would have on John#he gets to have a little fun with it from time to time#follow up to this: they leave and have some fun in their car because they are hungry and impatient 👍#anyway yeah idk I'm just blabbering at this point#just throwing ideas into the void and running away don't mind me#my writing#I feel like I need to apologize for this this is probably written so badly but VSHVSHVNUV at least the thoughts have been shared

Who is the best and who is the worst to sit next to on the plane?
no one could agree who unanimously is the best insisting their seatmate, previous or otherwise, was (ekky→benny, benny→reino, sasha⇆bobby, swaggy→forsy, luosty→mikksy)
but the worst? with a whopping two votes against him (benny, swaggy) is ekky because hes loud and forces guys into joining the poker table 😭😭😭
special mention forsy and mikksy copping out of the question like theyre carebear incarnates and going everyone is the best :)

God does not play dice with the universe... but Metatron does
#good omens#good omens s2#good omens season 2#metatron#my musings#metatron the mastermind#good omens s2 spoilers#God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising#which might be compared#from the perspective of any of the other players [i.e. everybody]#to being involved in an obscure and complex variant of poker#in a pitch-dark room#with blank cards#for infinite stakes#with a Dealer who won't tell you the rules#and who smiles all the time.#good omens analysis

i can't tell if i'm just not paying attention or if mouthwashing just doesn't make any sense
#random thoughts#mouthwashing#watching a playthrough and am on the Big Twist so more stuff may happen or whatever#like jimmy raped anya. none of her behavior before this really like clued this in but whatever#doesn't really. add anything to the story so far. could really replace it with anything and the story would still be the same#seems like it's just there to give jimmy a reason to crash the ship#also don't like that he crashed the ship. curly crashing it made him more of a compelling character for me#like it's established he gives the same answers every time in the mental health check ups#make him like. succumb to the pressures of the job. instead of just being kind of a shitty normal boss#and like. anya doesn't want to give jimmy his check up and be alone with him while he makes up sexually deviant lies. could be foreshadowing#but she asks him to give curly his medicine. she doesn't seem to OBJECT to him becoming captain.#she was also a lot more compelling when it seemed like she was struggling due to the pressures of the job#i like swansea. reminds me of uncle billy from the outcasts of poker flat#his final where's johnny moment is kind of out of nowhere. is it because jimmy has the gun?#i doubt it's about the rape. did jimmy do something else? did swansea find out he crashed the ship?#i wish i didn't get to see curly's face before the crash. like give me some room to ponder dude#daisuke and swansea's dynamic is really fun! especially in the pre-crash scenes#my main problem with anya is she didn't have any single character to play off of. daisuke had swansea. curly had jimmy.#she's just kind of there. and miserable. and sucks at her job#also why is curly still alive??? like she killed herself in front of him but didn't take him out? tf anya#there's like 30 mins left so idk maybe some of my complaints will be rectificed. or maybe mouthwashing just isn't for me#literally my main complaint is the rape subplot so if they do something interesting with that then we're golden

tired of people who want pjo movie references in the disney+ show. "logan lerman should've been-" i don’t care. "poker face in the casino-" actually i hope ms. gaga keeps her entire discography miles away from it. i don't care move on
#peace and love🫶#this isn't even to say I didn't like those parts of the movies or that I can't see the appeal in having references in the show#I'm just tired of HEARING about it oh my god#the pjo movies are getting all of the loving looking back they could need#just in the fact that people's opinions of them are clearly shifting#like people look back on them more fondly now they were VERY bad adaptations but fun movies overall with some good scenes#I think the shift in public opinion is also due to the d+ show btw I think the fact we have a good adaptation now#means people no longer feel the need to spend energy publicly and viscerally disavowing the movies anymore#but we still don't really need references to it!! especially when it's shit you're so clearly not getting I'm sorry#they're not putting logan lerman anywhere in there you know this look inside yourself#and they're DEFINITELY not putting poker face in the lotus hotel scene COME ON NOW THAT WOULD JUST BE STUPID#the lotus hotel scene is already going to undeniably get compared to the pjo movie version#and they. kind of have a lot to beat. the lotus hotel scene was so much fun#there's already going to be a bunch of “which was better?” discourse about it#using poker face would honestly probably not help. also then it's not gonna be a fun scene in it's own right#it's gonna be a fun and good scene to people just cause it references some bad movies#anyway I hope they pick a different song I saw some people say hotel room-#pjo#pjo tv#pjo disney+

award for most devil’s sacrament moment of the year goes without a doubt to this morning when my coworker (delivering presentation) (screen projected onto wall in front of me and god and everyone) opened a new tab in google chrome and in the number one spot among the collection of icons for frequently visited websites was. the ao3 logo
#when i tell you it took everything i had in me not to visibly or audibly react#and she didn’t react at all! so either she has a great poker face or didn’t notice or else also subscribes to the whole devil’s sacrament#mindset i.e. ‘well if they recognize it they have no room to judge’#which is of course correct! i’m not judging! i’m simply experiencing The Kinship That Must Never Be Acknowledged very acutely in a public#and professional environment!#this is also not really new information to me like i don’t know for sure if she’s on this website but i could For Sure have pegged her as#an ao3 girlie at least and i’m sure she knows the same about me#(throwback to the runner-up for the most devil’s sacrament moment award from last week when i (clearly online) mentioned that i don’t spend#much time on youtube but i find other ways to waste it and she was like ‘oh such as?’ and i cursed my big mouth and awkwardly went ‘well i#read a lot of fiction’ (true but NOT what we were talking about and we both knew it perfectly well) and then we both had to sit with that)#anyway! mini heart attack moment for sure seeing that symbol in that context but fun times overall :)#and this is why i will never ever open ao3 in a non-incognito tab lest my computer too decide to betray me. forever amen#[REDACTED] on the OFF CHANCE YOU END UP READING THIS and recognize yourself and thus learn my online identity. please don’t tell anyone#let’s keep the devil’s sacrament between us#caseyposting

Migraine will not stop me from relaxing Fyodor bath thoughts.
#i stayed in a hotel once that had a bath “room” that was surrounded with glass like in the living room area of this suite#they had nice bubble bath products too no salts but that is okay. it didn't have jets but it did have that built in water heater thing#fyodor going to [redacted] with me and we get that suite#i dont think he would be so interested in the brewery situation but maybe he would want to go on a riverboat and gamble we could play some#poker or i could watch him play some poker because i am not good at poker lol#i prefer blackjack#-luedor musings
