Did I accidentally label you as a TAGfish?

Any constructive comments? How would you have played those hands differently?

B/F on turn not better than C/C?

Against a loose-passive fish this is definitely a bet-fold, but I already had him pegged as aggressive. I tend to check to aggressive players more often than most.

The only real draw just got there. If he does have the flush, I only get blown off my redraw (I have the K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]). He'll very often bet whatever hand he has (99, TT, worse Jx, maybe 8x) to protect it against another [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], so he'll very often mistakenly bet my hand for me. If he checks it back I can still get value on the river.

Oh, goofy: I don't mind the unshaven look. I have it a lot myself. Get a better haircut, tho.

Anyway, out into the sun.

Question: I know Kolo said that not many people can pull off the unshaven look, but what do we think of the dusting of facial hair seen here on young goofyballer?



It's 2:40am and I haven't started my 5 page paper due in 8 hours yet, so obviously I figured taking pictures in front of a mirror would be a more productive use of my time.

you gotta rock the hair somehow. i realise its 5am and whatnot but yeah. rock the hair.

goofyballer - a little scruff is all good, but if you let it come in a little make sure to shave off the cheese stash and just have a scruffy jaw

God damn I am so sick and tired of people saying "Well rappers drop the n-bomb so why aren't people crucifying them like Imus?".

Good lord are you being intentionally obtuse?! OF COURSE IT'S DIFFERENT.

I went to a technical college, I have some dorky friends. I can call them nerds and geeks and losers and such and it's all good because they respect my shell scripting. I can call people on this message board degenerate gambler losers and it's okay. If some big strong jock starts calling Joe Programmer a pathetic nerd, it's a lot more offensive. If some holier than thou type starts ragging on someone here IRL and calling them a degenerate, it's more offensive. When a crusty mean old white man talks that way, of course it's different than when rappers do it.

Suggestions on how exactly to go about doing this?

FishSticks: 'cheese stache'? I do shave the moustache area after a couple days, thus leaving its growth less pronounced than the hair around the jawline, which I think looks better.

Goofy,

I will have more facial hair after lunch today and I shave every morning. Keep it clean shaven until you can get good Dan Johnson-like stubble going.

Yah, exactly. By cheese stache I just mean cheesy looking moustache, which it sounds like you have the good sense to avoid already [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The crappy resolution on my camera phone must downplay the length of the hair, because I'm pretty sure that's not possible.
