R2 enters the living room to find Godzilla sitting in front of his computer wearing funky shades.
R2: Godzilla! Why in the world are you wearing shades? You are inside the house in front of a computer!
Godzilla (annoyed): I am playing facebook poker.
R2: Hahaha! Don’t you think it’s somewhat dumb to wear shades while playing online poker?
Godzilla: I have won 38 million chips in the last 4 weeks. I know you have been struggling to move beyond itsy bitsy 100k chips for a few years now. Now if you scratch my back and get a beer for me, I can throw a few thousand chips at you!
R2 is intrigued. He looks at the screen. Godzilla is dealt a 2-7 off-suit. Three players ahead of Godzilla raise and call. It’s Godzilla’s turn. He is thinking..
R2: Godzilla, just fold. This is statistically the worst--
Godzilla cuts off R2 with a hand wave and re-raises. R2 is banging his head in frustration. Everyone calls Godzilla’s re-raise.
Flop comes 2-7-7. Full House!! Godzilla has hit the jackpot!
R2 (excited!): SLOWPLAY! SLOWPLAY!! – You need to reel everyone in!
Godzilla (ignoring R2 completely): I am ALL IN.
Everyone calls. Godzilla wins a monster pot!
R2 is stunned!
R2: Godzilla, you have turned conventional poker wisdom on its head. What is the secret of your success on facebook poker?
Godzilla: There are 2 secrets:
1. Never tell anyone everything you know.
Godzilla calmly starts playing the next hand. R2 waits in anticipation for the 2nd secret and then figures it out. R2 bows to the Godzilla of Poker.
R2: Godzilla, are you IN for poker at DG’s place this Thursday night?
Godzilla: I am ALL-IN. Dude, last offer - can you please pass on a beer for 2 million chips?
