I have never bought a scratch lotto card before in my life. On a whim I bought one yesterday when I was at the corner store buying some chips. Of course I bought the WPT one where you can win up to 100k or an entry into a WPT event. LOL I'd like to see someone at the FT of a WPT saying they qualified through a scratch card lotto.

Anyway on hand #3 the potential prize was 100k. I am deal King of Hearts 10 of Hearts and my opponent has Ace of Spades Queen of Spades

Flop King of Spades 10 of Spades King of Diamonds

Of course my uber lucky opponent turned the royal flush to deny me my chance at glory.

I somehow doubt the deal is random on these cards Laughing every hand was a massive action hand. I did win $5 which covered the cost of the ticket though. I'll be taking the cash and not playing again.

Great stuff Taz...Not only did I laugh hysterically, but I was able to explain the concept of being one/two outer-ed in holdem to my teammates.

BTW if u had one u'd officially be the biggest luckbox ever.

Next time I play a big buy-in event I'm telling the people at my table I won my seat from a scratchcard.

OMG, I'm shocked that's not already a possibility!
