Re: STTF [censored] thread. October (NSFW)
[ QUOTE ]
The Antigua WTO case is key, because if the USA does not abide by the Antigua ruling, then the whole WTO could fall apart. Hint - that will not happen. [/ QUOTE ] I don't get this. The US ignores trades rulings all the time. Why would this be any different? See Canada and Soft Wood Lumber. |

[/ QUOTE ] My understanding is that the USA moans, groans and stalls (i.e., politicians saving face) but always complies. The Canada case occurred after my international trade class, but I have no reason to suspect different here. Also, isn't the softwood case NAFTA instead of WTO? it makes a bit of difference because the US is continually working to get other countries to abide by WTO rules. |

[/ QUOTE ] pretty accurate IMO, and the US will not just simply ignore WTO rulings/demands/what have you. banks are going to/have been applying tremendous pressure to the US treasury and fed. reserve, and they all, with the WTO, DO have a lot of say in this, and our fight is far from over. |

6 hours of live 1/2NL is what, like 150 hands? [/ QUOTE ] You are correct I know - you don't see near as many hands. The table was extremely loose, a lot of straddle hands with raises in them, I did open up after I saw several hands that were raised PF, but still was probably only in a hand every other round at a full table. Seems like it was more hands than that I didn't keep track, actually it was 8 hours 7PM- 3AM. meh - you expect to at least see Big Slick or AQ in there a couple times. |
