One guy holding Jack ten the other holding ace ace.

J10 goes all in preflop. Ace ace calls him.

People are astounded. "wow, what is the chances of him getting aces!"

The same [expletive] chance of getting deuce deuce you douchenozzles!

Idiot poker players are some of my favorite people in the world.

I hate their stupidity but it has a way of paying itself back.

They are annoying, but when they go in with j-10 against you, you learn to appreciate their eccentricities.

Which is pretty small. What they are saying there's a small chance that he has the best hand in the game. Not just some random pair, or worse hole cards. The J10 is presumably shortstacked looking for a race or something. AA is obviously a surprising and disappointing hand to see.

I love idiot poker players, it's how I make my money. Can't help it if they suck out.

I am not bragging or anything but I buy the theory that it can sometimes be harder to be a punk rather than a good player.

A bad player is patternless and therefore unreadable. Betting wise.

I don't even know where to start with this. That is one of the strengths of being a better player.

They have patterns. Stupid patterns. But even if they are just lunatics with no rhyme or reason, you play it straight and make a lot of money over the long haul. I've actually never understood why people say this. I'd much much rather play a bad player.

Not picking on you Windy, I've just never understood that sentiment.

I haven't played in a long time. Anyone want to have a GRB tournament at some point? We could just do it on Yahoo! or something right?

Its a confusing concept. Better players try so hard not to have patterns that they end up having patterns.

Bad players have no patterns but that doesn't mean their bets are quality.
