Re: ***Official November Chat Thread: The Golden Duck***
 

no one answered this in the last thread so...

what's the deal with having to click the middle of the buttons on stars? like, I can't even click the pre-action checkboxes, I have to click on the words next to them. took me forever to figure out why it wasn't working.

I haven't exactly played hardly at all this month so I guess this is a new "feature" I missed??

Re: ***Official November Chat Thread: The Golden Duck***
 

Completely OT and political:

I have been checking out a lot of Ron Paul's stuff (debates/stances on issues, etc.) and as poker players, I would advise you all to at least check his website out or watch a replay of a Rep. debate he was in. I believe he is the only candidate who has taken a strong stand for online poker and he seems more of a Libertarian than a Republican (he was the Lib. nomination for pres. in 1988).

I was generally sick of all the crap about the upcoming US presidential elections, but if you all have free time and want to hear something a little different than the monotony of politics, at least check out the YouTube of his appearance on Jay Leno.

Mods, delete this if it's the wrong place, but I feel that more people should be exposed to his views and make their own decisions, so I guess I'm just trying to promote awareness of what he is all about.

I'm probably gonna 24 table micro games tonight to get a feel. Then I'll try 18tabling 1/2.

I don't think it will affect me too much.

Re: ***Official November Chat Thread: The Golden Duck***
 

With Ron Paul's effort gaining steam and Stephen Colbert's semi-jokingly run at president, I really hope the American public wakes up and reverses the direction we are headed.

Even though Paul and Colbert might not have big chances at winning (Paul might if he keeps going at this pace), their campaigns can only do good for the US.

Re: ***Official November Chat Thread: The Golden Duck***
 

I like Ron Paul, because he votes no on everything that grows government. Lower taxes with him as prez.

Re: ***Official November Chat Thread: The Golden Duck***
 

Ron Paul is good but also semi-dangerous. I can already see the personality cult forming.

I think his tax ideas are a little whacky but I do like his libertarian stance.

True about the personality cult, but are Obama/Hilary/Guiliani supporters any less vigoruous in support of their candidate? I think any individual who seperates themselves from the pack in some way (Obama is black, Hilary is a woman, Paul opposes most current Reps.) is going to have some sort of a cultish following.

To clarify, I'm not firm on any potential candidate, I just think people should check out what Paul in particular has to say simply because it is so different than the current Rep. party platform.

lol ive been wanting to do this since i hear the news

stupid midterms

Re: ***Official November Chat Thread: The Golden Duck***
 

Just finished my first evar 1 hour session 16 tabling. It was not easy. I felt nervous, anxious, and rushed. I found it much more difficult to make correct decisions.

I can't see myself doing more than 16 even after a couple months of getting used to it. Seems to me you'd have to employ some sort of non-optimal auto pilot strategy (like 9/4/2 on the .50/1) in order to expect positive returns on table #17, 18, 19, etc. "I mean you could do it, but that don't mean it's to be done!" (Chris Rock).

Re: ***Official November Chat Thread: The Golden Duck***
 

I like ron paul but some of his ideas are way too far out there and lose him credibility. If he would tone it down a notch he would stand a better chance.

I also like Dennis Kucinich on many issues.

Also, although Obama hasn't came out supporting poker, he is certainly not against it. He used to play himself.

Re: ***Official November Chat Thread: The Golden Duck***
 

lol, I guess this makes me feel better about the last few days... kind of.
