Re: Stars crash?
Stars -- Can you tell us if you're cancelling current tourneys & s&gs? I'd like to shut things down for the evening, but don't want to find out I was blinded off when I log in tomorrow.

Bump. Just making sure everyone who might be motivated to call a legislator gets a look at this thread.

Re: Good News In WA
The bill doesn't reduce the penalty to a misdemeanor. It provides an affirmative defense against prosecution unless you're running a gambling site.

Re: Good News In WA
Also, it would be helpful if people would post this press release on other forums. We need to flood the legislature with calls on this one.

Re: Endgame -- I Suck
Yeah, I'm used to swings, but since I'm new at STTs and things have been going badly heads-up, I thought I'd better check into it.
Thanks for the encouragement and the search tips.

Re: AJ, flopped an ace
Thanks. I pretty much never check in this situation, but I got a little goofy today.
Would checking be OK if the board was rainbow?

Re: AQ, Flopped TPTK, They Fought Back
Makes sense, and would have saved me $3.50 on this hand. Thanks.
So, say I'd checked the flop, PFR led out for $3.50 & the other guy folded. Then I assume I'm the one raising to $10?
