Re: Finding Chips On The Floor

I was told by security folks in the slot area of a NV casino, that as long as the $ wasn't touching their machine in any way, shape, or form, it's OK to pick it up.

Re: quality poker anywhere??

The only free decent live poker to watch might be some online cash games.

Re: How does Phil Hellmuth win tournaments?

He wears jacket and sunglasses and becomes a statue to hide HIS tells.

The rest is playing TAG and picking his spots and estimating people's cards is not brain surgery, I've made some great reads,...

Re: How Does Helmuth not get punch in the mouth?

Years ago Sam Grizzle supposedly decked him, Sam's pushing 5'8" if he's lucky.

I thought Phil H was more like 6'4" and Phil Gordon was 6'8".

Phil's obviously over-acting, I'll laugh if he ever...

Re: Is it harder for a man to be knocked out of a tourney/sng by a wom

Only egotistical males would think that way IMHO, upbringing a huge factor I'd gather.

I am surprised you had to ask, I thought it was common knowledge, my mistake. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

Re: Your take on this hand? 1981 WSOP Ungar vs. Smith

My speculation...

Since Bill made the bet, it doesn't matter that much, but if he thought he had the straight I'd blame nervousness. The way he looked and said straight, I thought it was an...

Re: Live game staking

I agree, staking for a cash game is bad idea.

Someone could easily fubar you with better deal with another player if they are desperate enough... Chip dumping ploy comes to mind.

Re: What tables to play with my budget

With 24 hours, I'd go with 2/5 at MGM Grand, buyin max twice, if you lose the first $1000, drop to 1/2 NL with 5 buyins, lose the first 3 too quick, use last $400 on limit.

Good luck! 8)

Re: What\'s your table image?...And is mine a problem?

So do like I do: PF raise with 42s and 87o once in a while, they will wonder why you insta muck to a bet on a AKJr board, 'I had pocket 9's...'

Or like I did betting every street on K82r flop...

Re: Spread Limit Q\'s

Only one I have played is 2-6 at the Excalibur, and it is still going strong.

I'd be surprised if T.I. had a 4/8 game going let alone a 2-20 spread game, but maybe they have become a decent room,...

Re: Vegas TR (really long)

The MGM poker room AS it is today opened in 2005 btw, I was there, in March if memory serves.

Nice trip report, and Wynn is one of my favorite rooms as well.

Re: Vegas Baby Vegas....(Hotel ? Post)

Actual On The Strip (on the end you likely want) wise the cheapest places would be Tropicana and Barbary Coast, ask about suites.

Re: Fiesta Rancho Poker Room - CLOSED

The Strip wise, for now:
MGM, Mirage, Wynn, Bellagio, Sahara, Luxor, Bally's, Palms and Excalibur, add Venetian and Caesar's too MAYBE, but they are late to the dance.
