Yes, fellow Brown Trout types...it's the truth. In addition to being Party's software designer, Anurag has an additional moonlighting job: He is the director of airline food for Delta Air Lines.

How do I know this, you may ask? I just got back from my first poker-playing trip to Las Vegas. (For the record: about +2.5 BB/hr playing 2/4 to 4/8 LHE in various places for the trip.) On the flight from Cincinnati to LV, we were served a snack. It came in the following package:

When it rains it pours! No one told me the upswing would feel this good compared to the downswing when I first started at $1/2. Oh YEAH! Tonight was a good night.

God I love Paradise. Love it, love it, love it. I'm playing O8 there now, but the Hold'em games are great as well. Just played an O8 pot that reached 59 BB. I knew I was getting quartered for the low (and had no high), but I was still pumping the river because there were five people left in there with me. Even if I get sixthed, I'm just breaking even. Sure enough, got quartered, and still came out + 4BB on the hand.

I might have to start playing Paradise even when they don't offer a bonus. It's the most accurately named poker site ever. (Caveat: I have never played at Fish Pond poker, so it's possible that they really deserve this title.)

At first I was apprehensive about going from pokerstars to paradise... But I don't think I ever want to go back now. These players are wonderful!

Well played. Thats all that matters.

I was playing 6-max and a terrible player had been berating a fish who was winning. Fish leaves the table and the terrible player types in the chat:

Takes the money and run.... what a loser

I just thought this comment was kind of funny. Now English isn't my first language, but wouldn't the correct word here be winner rather than loser?

Hey was just wondering if anyone had any comments on the possible use of www.pokergrader.com... it seems to be a tilt-judger? i didnt wanna start a new post for this and knock a decent post of the front page, but figured most people read this
