Kevmath is not going to be around tonight so I have taken it upon myself to start this thread. 10-20NL $1000min uncapped buy-in is the game tonight. Corp Mike and Barry Woods are in the game so it expects to be action packed. Head over to liveatthebike.com to see all of the action.

"1907 John "Duke" Wayne [Marion Michael Morrison] Winterset IA, actor (True Grit)"

I use to live across the bay from the Duke In Newport Beach, and went to high school with his son Ethan.

No, My Dad did. John Wayne had a tennis club in Newport and my Dad was a member.

BarTuch-
Can you explain how the "check blind" can be effectively used. I never know what to make of a check blind when I'm in position.

Ugh, I can't get it to work tonight again. Is it just me?

when it confuses your opponent so much that they push all in and start foaming at the mouth because they have no idea what it means. it's really only useful when you flop the nuts.
