You never folded KK preflop..lol...this is why I think internet guys have big advantage over live guys. They play more hands, see more situations and etc.

Knowing the way poker players who are down on their luck think Barry is only going to take it that you are trying to lure him back into the game [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

So you base everything off of tuchmans poker career? He's said hes never run into a situation where hes felt the need to fold pocket kings, IE he could do it if he felt it was neccessary or the situation called for it...

I don't think The Sting would be considered a poker movie, but the one poker scene on the train was classic.

Wouldn't a poker show on a moving train be a great idea? Doubt it could happen in the U.S. though. How about travelling accross Europe?

It actually sounds like it has some potential for a reality tv show sort of deal. I would much prefer something like this on the Travel Channel where they get out and go to cardrooms and some of the touristy spots in different countries. Sounds pretty cool actually.

That's the thing about calling river bluffs great play - more often than not the point is what's he doing there. To me it's like rewarding a dog for not pissing on the carpet - I mean great it doesn't piss on the carpet - not sure it deserves anything for it - fine, jump up and and catch a ball and you'll get a biscuit.

I actually won quite a lot in that session.

The neatly dressed guy and I had a conversation after the game broke up. (We were the only winners.) He said he had been playing for a long time, but he learned NL hold'em online. Two old dogs taught the puppies some tricks.
