Okay, so this is the funniest thing I ever heard a dealer say at a poker table. First, let me set it up.The place where I was playing has a remote control panel where the dealers push a button to signal different requests, such as open seating notification or calling for service (meaning cocktail waitress, for those that don't know). A dealer change had just happened and our new dealer is a Vietnamese woman of about 40 or so and one of the players had asked for service once she got settled in. So, she presses the button for service. Now nearly 25-30 minutes had gone by and the guy says, "Could you call service?"Now, here comes the funny part, the dealer responds in her heavy Vietnamese accent, "I service you long time." And the whole table just started cracking up. The dealer was so red-faced once she realized what she had said.

So, you're saying it's better that he stays INsane?I bet deep down he's glad he didnt make the final table.3 months wearing that outfit would have driven him sane -

My friend at work likes to play poker and would like to play online. I sent him a referral to a couple of site and he registered and played for a while, but is afraid to continue to play because he believes it is illegal to play poker online for money in all of the US. I told him that is not true and only against the law in a few states, but he won't believe me. We almost ended up getting into an argument, but I need solid proof for him to believe me. Can anyone point me towards a few articles or something to show him it is okay to play for money here? Btw, we live in California. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Hey, so aren't the top two chip leaders at this table internet pros? Cause it if is, that's pretty interesting.

What is the big deal with all those first posts?Anyways, GL DN. You should be comfortable with this one, as you always said it's your bread and butter game.

When you call Daniel's phone, the voice mail greeting tells you to leave a message for Patty and refers to her by first and last name. I haven't called his phone in about year, so that might've changed. Btw, don't ask me to give you his number, because that is an obvious no. Heck, it might not even be the same anymore. Anyways, I'm pretty sure I remember what her name is, but I'm not sure if she wants that to be kept private and so I will not say. However, I'm sure she would tell you if you just sent her a PM.Oh, and yes, DN's first assistant's name was Travis.

Well, I guess you could always use Poker-Edge (http://www.poker-edge.com/) They have a free one month trial or if you use one of their promotion methods where they refer you to a poker site, I believe they give you 3 free months at their gold level. However, I must warn you, most poker sites frown upon using this software, especially PokerStars. Use at your own risk!yes i did nd i downloaded it but then uninstalled it as it would not run...and i just realized you have to pay for it..is there any other things like it that are free/ -
Um, did you try http://www.pokertracker.com ?what is pokertracker software and where can i get it? -
King_tanner, the card room in California that I was referring to is Artichoke Joe's in San Bruno.As for the rest of the replies, aren't Bike and Commerence in LA? I was asking about LV, Las Vegas.

So, I was just wondering if there are any electronic poker tables in Las Vegas? I know, you guys are probably thinking, "Why not just play at home on your computer, then?" Well, playing this way, you can still see your opponents and try to get reads and physical tells on them. Also, it's faster since you don't have to wait for a dealer or a machine to shuffle and it lessens the possibilities of dealer error, i.e. pushing the pot to the wrong player, resolving side pots, or misreading confusing hands esp. in O/8.I know there is a card room near my city that has it (I have yet to check it out), the people tell me they have it programmed for different games depending on what day it is or what the players want. They even told me it incorporates the house bad beat jackpots.Since I'm going to LV in the summer I was wondering if there is anything like that anywhere in Las Vegas.

I have $936 pending bonus dollars on Ultimate Bet. I only play there like 3 times a week and only for like an hour or so. I only average about 18 points a session, playing the micro limits, ie $.25/.50 How long will it take me to clear my entire bonus?It was hard enough before this new RAI$E thing, but now it is virtually impossible. I use to clear like a dollar session, but now after about a week, I don't even think I even cleared one cent.This RAI$E system is horrible for the casual player. I HATE IT! I want to unjoin from the new system on go back to the old way.

Watched a Jaywalking segment on Leno last night about people's knowledge of presidential candidates. It was funny, but yet frightening to see the those people be so ignorant. Anyways, I want to watch it again and show my parents, does anyone know where I can find it online anywhere? I tried YouTube and my usual torrent sites, but still had no luck. Can one of you guys help me?

Actually, right before posting for this topic, I did email Stars. I just got their reply. Here is what they said along with my original message in the reply:-------Start of email--------Hello Patrick,Thank you for contacting us today, we appreciate your feedback!I am sending your suggestion to management for consideration. Please be sure, that we do take your ideas seriously and appreciate thetime you spent to send us your email. If we decide to develop a newfeature, based on our player's suggestions, we will proceed to informthem immediately.Feel free to contact us should you need our assistance, we are here to help.Regards,EddiePokerStars Support Team----- Original Message -----From: patho@pacbell.netSent: 2008/01/22 17:35:33To: support@pokerstars.comSubject: Comment/Suggestion>To whom it may concern:> > I was just wondering if ever in the future would PokerStars ever host satellites for the Bay 101 Shooting Stars event in San Jose, CA? I love going there, but I never play in the event because I can't really afford it. So, after seeing and meeting the Stars, after an hour or so after that tournament starts, I usually get depressed because I'm not playing in that tournament.
I was hoping to suggesting having satellites for it, and preferably step tournaments. I loved those so much. I still have a PCA step ticket and am waiting for when I can use it again. Next year, maybe? Anyways, please take that into consideration and let me know what the current future plans are.----------End of email-----------As you can see, it was a very generic reply and was added with the fact they completely ignored the second part of my message. Oh well.However, I did check out FTP and look up the info for the Winner's Choice promotion and found this on their web site:"Play in our next Winner’s Choice qualifier to claim your seat in any of the following events:WPT World Poker Open at the Gold Strike Casino - January 20th WPT Borgata Poker Classic - January 27th WPT LA Poker Classic - February 23rd WPT Bay 101 Shooting Stars - March 10th WPT Foxwoods Poker Classic - April 4th EPT German Open - January 29th EPT Scandinavian Open - February 19th EPT Polish Open - March 11th "So, yeah, it does look like the Shooting Stars event is on there. Guess, I'll give that a shot.Thanks for the suggestions. -
Does anyone know if there are any cheap satellites where it be live or online for the Bay 101 shooting Stars Event? By cheap, I mean under $100, probably something like $40 or so.I love going there, but I never play in the event because I can't really afford it. So, after seeing and meeting the Stars, after an hour or so after that tournament starts, I usually get depressed because I'm not playing in that tournament.

Guess what people. I'm so happy. I finally reached my goal of getting my form as Super Hot on Sharkscope for my PokerStars (patho) stats. It took me a while and a lot of tight and conservative play to do it, but I finally got there. If you're wondering why the AV ROI on it is so low it's because I was experiementing a lot on the latter half of last year trying to figure out how to reach my goal.So, anyways, I was just wondering if there are any other online poker tracking sites out there? The only other one I know of the thepokerdb.com which I know is for multitable tournaments.It just feels so nice to know that I was able to cash over 6 times in a row. Man, I'm just so giddy.

Just wanted to let you guys know they pushed the deadline back from midnight to 5:00am. So, those of you who wanted to try these PCA steps, there's still some time left, but not much.

Prepaids don't work anymore? Man, that was fast, considering I just made a deposit this weekend as I stated above.

Now, Captain Obvious be nice. He's still pretty new here as you can tell from the date joined, only a few months ago.Stretchy, yeah I just bought one of those All Access Visa cards this weekend and put like $200 and it worked perfectly fine. It charged a buck for the transaction fee when I made my deposit to Stars, which I hope isn't too much for you. Anyways, I think you can get those cards at your local check cashing place or cash advance businesses.

So yesterday I was having lunch with one of my friends/fellow poker buddy and was telling him about the WSOP in Europe. Then he says, "I don't get why they have that, though." I thought about it for 10 seconds and realized what he meant. It never occured to me because to me WSOP was always just a name and the Europe would be like a separate but related entity. But if you think about it, WSOP stands for WORLD Series of Poker. So, that would mean people come from all over the world to participate in it. So, now I'm thinking along that same lines as him. It is kinda redundant, isn't it?

pt special, I had $4.83 in my account last week, but I almost doubled it and got it up to $9.24 currently. I also have the ability to create private tourneys, but really could use the staking to participate. I'm serious, by the way.sure, anyone that needs staking into it i will provide....only people that genuinely need it -
All it does it analyze data from your hand histories. It helps you keep track of your hands and sessions to see how you did and maybe find patterns. It does not play for you as a bot would. I would assume that means it should be legit. I've tried it out before and have found it very useful myself. Btw, I'm in no was affiliated with the Poker Tracker software. I'm just a user of it.are all of these tools like pokertracker legal and legit?
