Poker at the convenience of your home!!!

Yesterday Laurie, Ashley and me played a symbolic 3$ (5cents small blind , 10cents big )game at the crib...It was awesome experience especially cause i play mostly online, so i don't get much time to "perfect" my live play....Anyways since Laurie don't play much poker, but is very intelligent, she got that famous BEGINNERS luck.She was flopping straights(Q 10, flop came AKJ)...trips(77,flop was 927) etc. and had showed us how quickly she learns the game.
I got knocked out after 15min. , thinking Laurie doesn't know what she's doing, betting on every street, only to find out that she had MONSTER hand(i made a mistake not betting the flop..and she took a free card that improved her hand to trips(77 again, flop was 10 2 9, and i held 10 2 )...river was Q..and i was down to 50 cent..
Then two of them played for another 10-15 min..until Ashley woke up with a JJ raised 25 cents and got called...flop came rainbow...all small cards and Ashley kept firing and Laurie calling hoping to get lucky again...This time lady luck was NOT on her side.Turn and river were "blanks" for her and she lost 4$ on that hand.
Thas when we stoped cause it was really late(and 3$ were symbolic...not real play..just using it to have some form of chips), but will definitely play again..
Next time we will do tour online together...It will be interesting...
I will keep it updated here...

Home games RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i really had good time...
