Re: Turkey Talk: November Low Content Thread
I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving. I went down to bakersfield to hang out with my girlfriend's family, which was relaxing save her cousin's boyfriend who had to be the weirdest most socially inept person I've ever met (I'm not even exaggerating).
Then I put in 9.5 hours of live play over the course of the weekend and won about 50 big bets. There were some glorious hands, but here is one of my favorites: Pretty tough table except for 2 spots, including villain. Hero raises in MP with KK. button calls, BB, and EP limper calls. QT9r Not a very good flop, but I'm not giving up yet. 7 small bets in the pot, I bet, button folds, bb calls, EP limper calls QT96 (now two spades) BB checks, EP limper checks, I bet, bb folds, EP limper raises, I call pretty quickly as I'm about to put the 9th big bet into the pot QT96K (no flush) EP Limper checks and looks like somebody just shot his dog. I say "I have to bet" and do. He says "yup, you have to I guess" and calls me. I show my top set, he shows 66 for a turned set, and begins to explain to me how lucky I am to have won and how bad it was for me to call his raise on the turn. I smile graciously while stacking his chips, managing not to mention that calling a bet getting 8:1 when you're a 22:1 dog might not be prudent.... |

Re: Turkey Talk: November Low Content Thread
We went out and got stuffed. And we also ate.
Always a fun time of year cause our daughter's bday sometimes falls on Thanksgiving. Anybody ever try turducken? Deep fried turkey? Bueller? Bueller? |

[/ QUOTE ] By you're going to be "out", you mean off of work? 'Cause that's balla. It is almost certain that I will get to the gay bay around Christmas. My parents are moving to Texas, so I'm going to actually have Christmas here but I'm planning on being in SF between Christmas and New Year's. And I don't have pesky work commitments. I graduate from college in three weeks, so work isn't an issue until after the first of the year. I'll be back on the forum tonight. I'm fried right now (I just got home from a FOURTEEN hour session at the Park) and I'm going to try and squeeze in an hour of sleep. Made 30 BB and three or four atrocious river payoffs. Ugh. |

Re: Turkey Talk: November Low Content Thread
Somebody has to say it....Why oh why did feely throw that damn ball? And why did they only have 1 timeout? I mean, this is the freaking NFL...sure the pats are really good, and if you do stupid crap like that you don't have a snow ball's chance in hell....

Re: Turkey Talk: November Low Content Thread
Kit, how many hours per week were you putting in anyways? A break might be good for you. A break from any activity that we do so often is often refresing when we come back to the activity after a bit of a break. (That doesn't include boning your skirt obviously)
BTW, as long as your enjoying the fruits of your labor, the Macallan 12 yr old makes for a nice stocking stuffer this holiday season. |
