Turkey Talk: November Low Content Thread

[James.]

happy thanksgiving everyone!

i'm about to load up my 3 girls and the wife and start making the rounds. gonna eat a couple lunches and mooch enough for dinner tonight. we went to my wife's dad's last night and got one meal under our belt early(tradition every year). also ate again after knocking down a couple rum and cokes last night. i usually eat enough turkey, dressing, ham, green bean casserole, asparagus and cheese, mashed potatoes and assorted pies to last me the year(or at least until christmas!

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....

Imagine entire tables full of those types. And they have funny Fargo accents. You have Canterbury Park.

My Thanksgiving was meh. I should have gone to San Francisco.

[jesse8888]

Yes, yes you should have. Are you still maybe coming here for Christmas? I'm actually going to be out for like 10 days or something insane like that....

[Frond]

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?

[jesse8888]

Some fraternity brothers of mine made a turduken for New Years a while back. I did not get to sample this delicacy, but they assured me it was truly fantastic. It also took them like 9 hours to make, and by the time they were done they were so wasted it's a wonder they were able to carve it.

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....

[KitCloudkicker]
