Geocache Description:


Cache is a small GFS candy container painted green.  Once you see one of them you'll know what to look for with the rest of them.  Final is a different container than the rest.

On the inside lid of the first nine containers are playing cards.  Make special note for each and where that card is in play in this hand of Texas Hold’em.  If you’re not familiar with the game or poker rankings you may have to do some research when the intel is collected.

The names of the participants have been changed to protect the innocent.  The story behind this hand is as follows...

 

Listen, here's the thing. If you can't spot the sucker in your first half hour at the table, then you are the sucker. Guys around here'll tell ya... you play for a living. It's like any other job. You don't gamble. You grind it out. Your goal is to win one big bet an hour, that's it. Get your money in when you have the best of it, and protect it when you don't. Don't give anything away.

It’s come down to this, Mike and Teddy have been playing heads up through the night and are both exhausted. The stacks have been flowing back and forth for hours and now it’s time so see who wins.

Mike just went All-In the hand before and doubled up to take a slight lead over Teddy. The blinds just doubled and at this point there’s no room for error

Mike’s first card (GC3D5EZ) comes to him, not the best, but let’s sees what he gets with it.

Teddy’s first card (GC3CJZQ), he’s an aggressive player, so he will most likely play anything.

Mike’s second card (GC3GJZ9). He knows that now is a good time to try and bluff Teddy. With the previous hand’s win, Mike is looking to extend his winning streak.

Teddy’s second card (GC3CDT2). He’s a gambler, so he’s good with any two cards most of the time.

Teddy over bets. The standard raise is three times the blind, but he over bets hoping to get Mike off his hand. Mike calls stating “All right, I'm gonna call you, or else I won't respect myself tomorrow morning.”

(GC3DWBP), (GC3CVK4) and (GC3C8Q9)The flop cards hit, the dealer stretches them for the drama, Flop Card #1, Flop Card #2 and finally Flop Card #3.

It’s up to Mike to begin. He surveys the field and knowing Teddy is aggressive he checks. Teddy quickly reaches for chips and bets the pot. Mike smooth calls.
