They have gotten nice double decker buses since I first started riding the bus, so it is a lot better now than it used to be.

Re: monitor texas border from your couch

Re: Question for the Brick and Mortar Pro\'s

I think the whole point is how much different the two games are.
I don't get to play live that much at all. I really like it more than online, but there is no card room close to me.

Ride the bus. I know some would not want to do this, but for 2 bucks you can go from one end of the strip to downtown.

Re: Why is B&M so much easier/looser than online?

You can go to a casino, walk into the poker room, pull out some cash, sit down and play.
You go online, they won't take your credit card, you don't want to give them a bank acct #. You have to...

Re: At what level should you start using tricky/variation plays?

Re: Which concert should I go see?

Re: can you go \"home again,\" i.e., to the silly social home games?

Do you drink?

This is a really good time for that.
