On poker.

No limit hold 'em game with a limited buyin.

$200 limit on the buyin. No more, no less, except as you're on your way out.

You arrive, buy $200.

You sit down in the seat after the big blind ($5). Ten in the dark, you say brashly. You're going to be noticed.

One caller to the button. Button raises. $50 total. Fold back to you.

You look at your cards. Not because you care what you have, but because that's what the script calls for. Call. Other guy folds.

The flop comes. You look it over, not because you care what it is, but because that's what the script calls for.

All in, you say. $150.

The next time you raise in the dark they won't be so quick to reraise.

The next time you go all in, they may be more willing to call.

It's the script.
