K8 makes money and American stupidity

First on a serious note: I took a boat from Little River SC today 3 miles out into the ocean and wowowowowaaaah got to play some poker. Gambling is illegal in SC but once you are 3 miles out it's international waters so let the cards and dice roll. Of course I did a little homework on the ride out and asked some important questions.

1) If gambling is illegal who is regulating the boat.
A) No one.... it's international waters no licence required.

Of course the illegal internet gambling act was to protect Americans from bad off shore sites, but I guess what the hell since it is an American company running the cruises. I find this hypocrasy very very scarey.

Now to the hand of the day on the boat. 1 table 5 10 limit runnng. I haven't played many hands since I've been dealt crap all day. Look down and see K8 suited. These guys don't know what's gonna hit them..... raise it up..... we cap and see a flop...... K K 9 rainbow. check check utg bets, 2 calls I slow roll on the button two checkers call. Turn 3 of spades..... utg bets out I now raise after 2 folds in between 2 callers. River K...... utg checks I bet he calls...... show my hand and rake in the pot.....

Back to the other issue.... rake on board min $5 max $5 if you see a flop..... hows that for illegal internet gambling......

    There's no such thing as slow rolling in limit, just value-losing. Either way... King Eight Make Money!

    LOL, I actually said K 8 makes money when he asked me if I had the K..... It wasn't the kind of game where you'd yell that LOL. Even tho we had to check our weapons before getting on the boat, and be frisked and metal detected.
