lets keep on topic people. lets discuss how there was a 3 handed poker game someplace that nobody gives a [censored] about

Naw... it's more entertaining to talk about the guy who posts 40 times a day, including a post today the complete contents of which are "depends" to answer someone's serious question, and then bitches about the quality of other people's posts.

i dont really bitch about posts, i bitch about stupid thread topics primarily. big difference

and, the "serious question" was lacking much info and couldnt be answered, thus - depends

Wow, you sound like you're having a really bad day.

On topic: I'd be surprised if games last more than one orbit 3-handed at B&Ms at lower and middle limits. B&M players are famously terrified of playing short-handed (usually anything less than seven players). When Scott is old enough to enter a B&M, he'll see what I mean.

Maybe the experience was more noteworthy to me because I was stuck almost three racks, and in those 15-20 minutes of three-handed play I got 80% of it back.

Off topic: I've been on a number of boards for years. There are always posters who join a forum and obsess over it, making scores of posts a day for months on end, like they've finally found their home. 1000 posts per month is a very typical number from them.

Most dangle from the nutsacks of the long-time posters and try to ramp up to their post counts in 1/10th the time; others become a subspecies of troll, being combative, "I don't take crap from anyone", and jacking off every time they get into a flame war.

Most burn out and stop posting altogether within 9-12 months. The most socially maladjusted ones, of course, have found nirvana and will never stop. When they haven't come out of their room in three days, their mothers go to check on them and find them naked and dead, sitting in front of the computer, a reply all typed up and ready to go. The kind mothers go ahead and click Send for them.

I won't get into a flame war with you Scott, so pull your pants back up.

I'm pretty sure suzzer99 racked up over 2k in less than a week, multitabling 2+2 of course.

Not for lack of effort on your part though.

Start crying. I won't lock posts like this one, although there is little point to the OP's topic I'm not going to start editing content when its not absolutely called for. The cream rises to the top, the crap will end up in the round file soon enough.

Simple. Ignore 95% of the complaints. 4% of the time say something snarky to make the OP or the respondent feel like dirt, and 1% of the time lock the thread to show em who the sheriff is in these here parts. Job done! R u ready?
