when boarding an airplane, you see your empty seat in row 36 then yell at the flight attendant..."3, 6 Lock it Up"

highlights from http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...p;Main=4106341

You consider 80% and up on a final exam to be "ITM".

You see Fe on the Periodic Table of Elements in chemistry class and think Fold Equity.

6) you wont consider a monitor or laptop unless it supports 1600X1200 resolution

7) YOU LOGON TO THIS FORUM AT LEAST 125923 TIMES A DAY


8) You're always thinking I could be making $xx per hour playing SNGs instead of this.

2.) When you spend 12 hours/day at your "job" w/o complaining
3.) You don't know most of your "friend's" first or last names
4.) You can't sleep because you "didn't" win $100,000


...normal everyday decisions are thought of as positive or negative EV. (i.e. Which lane to choose at the grocery store. )

... and then, when the cashier says $12.95 you say "poosh" expecting him to fold.


...Or you give him 177.82 and when they ask what this is you say IM ALL IN!


n) You think of taxes or surcharges as "rake".

n+1) You think of any partial rebate, including coupons, as "rakeback".




I'll start figuring my outs when I see a series of numbers like a liscence plate...

A2 654K

And then when he cuts me off, I don't get road rage...I "drive on Tilt."



51) When you buy one of these so you can 20table on one monitor - http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000240070831/


103) You're at a bar, there are 3 other guys and one chick, and you think, "bubble time."



... and you're the only one with balls to push it.


I treat this situation like a winner take all satellite. I'm not in to splitting the prize pool




#131) Your utility bill comes in higher than last month, and you think to yourself, "f'ing variance...".


#132) You scoff when people say women multitask better than men due to your experience 8 tabling while responding to posts on 2+2.




* Everybody in the car you're riding in thinks you're nuts because the "Do Not Push" sign on the back of the dump truck you just went by is the funniest thing you've seen all day.




I asked a cabbie who counted cards how long it took to get it down, and he said when you look down the street and see two men and a woman and think "-1".




You manage to use the nuts, plus EV and ship it all in the same sentance while not playing poker.
I.E Should I got dance with that girl? I'd say it's plus EV, shes pretty much the nuts and shes drunk enough that you can probably ship it. If not you can make some sort of backdoor draw with her friend...yeh I said it




You subconsciously refer to the guy next to you in the bathroom stall as "villain".




Like when your wife drags you away from the computer to have sex and you say that since your hourly rate is $100/hr this is going to cost you $6.




#157) When you hear "Dell", the first thing that comes to mind are the monitors you 126857 table on. Later you remember that they also make computers.




You see a monitor at a strangers house and feel tempted to check the resolution.



1001. When you go home to play poker because you don't have internet and you take over you brothers room because his monitor has 1600X1200 resolution.

1002. When you do it more then once in a week.

1145. When in the same week you take your laptop to a friends house so you can play poker while watching a movie since you still don't have internet and are craving some action.




You refer to yourself and constantly think of yourself as "Hero."



perg1. You have chick issues and talk to a fellow poker player for advice
perg2. You think that advice in terms of "muck," "push," "rigged," "stack" and "spite call" is perfectly acceptable
perg3. Any time the chick messes up the "line" suggested by buddy in perg1 you berate him for being a "fish" and laying a "bad beat" on you


TFG1)You think posting on 2p2 while in class is +EV.

At baseball games you cant figure out why the boy that picks up the bats has "big blind" (BB) on his back of his jersey.

I try shuffling ipod videos at you cousins house because there are like 4 just sitting there next to my taco bell (brag?).

When I am hanging out with people i feel like im wasting my time and should be playing poker, but when im playing i feel like im missing out on my senior year in high school (brag?).
