As far as us going busto at lucky chances (well, me going actually busto and goofy dropping a buyin or so) its just a matter of not having enough cash on hand. that game is soft as hell but without a rebuy available, you end up playing a shortstack and then basically gambling to double up, which is lame.

i dont remember any specific hands except one where i limp-called A2cc, check-called an AQx flop, led out a 2 turn, and bet-fold a T river. I'm pretty sure it was a good laydown but cost me a good chunk of my stack.

Good call. I figured there were a few cases where the hash table would have faster performance but I suppose those cases are rare enough when you consider an average case that I shouldn't have really considered it for a general scenario.

Apparently I live close enough that they were ok with me putting 500 more miles on my poor beat-up 1993 Accord. I think it's up to about 172k miles now. I love that car. On the bright side, they're paying for gas money once I mail them receipts.

Bonus story (quite possibly one of those "you had to be there" moments but I'll give it my best shot):

So I was playing this card game with DJ and his roommate called "Oh Hell" which I'd never played before; it's like spades or hearts in that it's a trick-based game, and there's a trump suit in each game which will take any trick if played. I had never played this game before, and to add to this obstacle DJ's roommate got me stoned. So how the game works is that you look at your hand at the start of each round and "bid" on how many tricks you think your hand will take. In this particular round I was dealt Js6s (just 2 cards; the # of cards you're dealt changes each round) and bid 2 tricks (aka all tricks that would be played, since we were only dealt 2 cards). My thought process was that since I played the first card, there was a decent chance my Js was the highest spade out there and would win the first trick, and that nobody else would be suited in spades 3-handed so my 6s would probably be the only spade left for the 2nd trick. Given my mental state at the time, I had completely forgotten about the entire "trump" aspect of the game, so the fact that spades were not trump didn't really register with me.

Obviously, I played the Js first, someone played a trump card, and my entire brilliant plan went to [censored]. After the round was over DJ was like "you had jack-six of a non-trump suit, leading first, and you bid two tricks???" My response:

"I was bluffing."

IIRC that was a limped pot?

Board was AK72T to the best of my memory, and you led $100 on the riv and folded to a raise that put you AI for about $170 more. I think it was a good laydown too, there aren't very many air hands he can have on the riv (nor did he seem like the type to make a big bluff like that) and he isn't value-raising worse hands very often.

I remember your first busto hand where 99 was no good against 42o on a 642 flop, heh. I totally thought that old dude that limped the 42o was a nit, too.

Am I the only one that thinks his tie is absolutely hideous? Although, he was interviewing for a programming job... I would imagine dressing well would be somewhat detrimental.

If you bid 2 you should have gotten to choose trumps (unless someone else bid 2, in which case you would have cut).

BTW Oh Hell = teh pwn.

Oh and good TR.
