Oh, I’ve been there haven’t we all? So, you’re sitting there, minding your own business, playing your cards your way, and then this guy decides he’s the poker guru of the century, right? He starts telling you how to play your hand, like you’re some kind of rookie who doesn’t know the difference between a flush and a straight. And what do you do? You look him dead in the eye and say, Listen, buddy, I’ve got this. You focus on your own game, and let me handle mine.
He gets all huffy, storms off, and leaves the dealer wondering what just hit them. And you? You just sit there, sipping your drink, thinking, Man, some people just can’t handle a little bit of confidence.
Let me tell you something when someone tries to tell you how to play your cards, you’ve got two options: either you let them walk all over you, or you shut them down with a smile. And if they can’t handle that? Well, that’s their problem, not yours.
So, here’s the thing: know your worth, know your game, and don’t let anyone else dictate how you play. And if they get mad and leave? Well, that’s just more room for you at the table.
Remember, in poker and in life, you’ve got to know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em, and know when to tell someone to take a hike.
