Re: Ride With The Taser

The advent and use of the Taser is the direct result of anti-cop/ignorant/Liberal "cause seekers" aghast at the thought that a cop might have to put his hands (or baton) on someone to effect an...

No, I was pointing out how little $1k is for playing tourneys that large and that your risk-of-ruin would obviously be quite high.

Re: QQ OOP against big stack

His smooth call of the flop bet coupled with my assumption that he was playing alot of draws and playing 'em weak led to a flush draw read. I also felt that if I was wrong, I could represent a big...

A few points after having slept.

I think the dealer read my hand as a straight and only after SB's bullet muck did he realize his mistake. I say so 'cause he immediately pushed me the pot and said...

Re: Commerce attempts 6/12 revival

I didn't realize they stopped running that game. Made room for NL tables, I'm guessing. What they need is a kill game. Based on the gamboolers at these limits, I've always wondered why they don't...
