... so... how old are you again "Grinder" ?

First hand, he knew you would have raised an ace, and probably a king.

Since it's 5$, I bet I could buy 5 entrys into a big 1$ tourny or something... but I dunno, I look at this as kinda a hobby, turning 0 into like 1000$. Believe me I was tempted to push my 5$ on the blackjack table, but after taking 2 blackjacks and busting the house, I had to walk lol.Playing the tourny was a good learning experience for Stud Hi/Lo, I think my only issue is I need a good way to calculate odds on 4th, 5th, 6th, street, also, reading the board. I had 2 freerolls open during that game, and it was Hold'em, and the Stud one. When I was switching I actually found it a little straini

So I have NEVER played Stud Hi/Lo till tonight, so I decide to try out a freeroll on Absolute Poker seeing as I haven't deposited in a few months, due to the neteller thing, and I dont have the money to.I register for a Stud Hi/Lo tourny tonight, it's got 2700 people in it, about 1min before my table opens, I quickly google the rules of Stud Hi Lo, just needing to know how Hi Lo works. Cram it, and 4 hours later I find myself in the last 2 tables shortstacked. Unfortunately I busted in 12th and made 1$ for my troubles... so as I promised myself, hit the blackjack table. First dollar I lay I hi

Ah, I sorta stayed away from FCP for like a 6 month stint, went back for a week, then another 4-6 month stint. so I missed pretty much all of 2006?

Well, of the people I'd invite, a lot would come from FCP because a lot of my friends dont like cards, and those that do don't play 1-2-5. But yeh, I'm assuming some of your FCPers are a lot better than the loose morons at a casino.... free food, barely a raaaake

Thanks guys for all the replys! Wasn't expecting THIS much buzz :DYeah, I always thought the thought of a rake to be kinda greasy, even if I'm bringing people I don't know.. I mean, why play a home game when you can go to a Casino... 10$ on original buyin is a great idea. It would cover all expenses for the night.1-2-5 does seem like an okay plan too me as well.As for chips that would be available I guess 1$, 5$, 25$, 50$ denominations would be kosher...Again, when this does happen I will advertise on Gen. Poker or some other related threads to see who would like to play.

Now as of now, I can't really host a home game as I'm inbetween places. But I was going to be living in a condo with a friend of mine who does also play cards, and I figured, a game every so often, (maybe even weekly) would be good.I'd be more than happy to advertise it on this website for those of you who would like to show up... but I have some questions and some of my own suggestions.1. Now, how many of you would be truly against a Rake? I have no real issue with having one or NOT having one... but it would probably be best for me if I did have one, I just don't want to make this feel like

Listen to the music Marge! He's evil!

I'd prefer a charity for Cancer or AIDS myself. I mean hey, I love dogs, have 2 german shepherds, at one point had 3, owned 4 total in my life, and a husky, LOTS of dog experience here... but if you wanna become a philanthropist, why not make it for the most devastating cause?

Steakaments? ;P

That kid is a living legend.

... I've had a friend of mine do this. It actually bugs me, even if I am taking the pot.... funny, at first I thought you were talking about the guy with KQ... which actually wasn't that bad a call.

I'm Canadian, by the way. If there is any difference in the wording of the new law.

When I heard of Neteller's demise, or soon to become, I decided to pull all my cash out of neteller and fulltilt, etc. Which was convenient because I had to pay some bills anyway, but then it happened, complete ****-blocking of being able to deposit onto a site like FullTilt via Neteller.If someone could humor me, what exactly happened to those of you who had their funds liquidated for those few months? Did you hear NO word as to getting it back?What is the status of Neteller now? Is it safe to deposit or is it a complete lockdown still?and finally, If so, what online transfer services DO you

I actually withdrew all my cash, which was a few hundred, just before this got locked up... so I was never sure exactly what happened, I just knew we couldn't use neteller anymore to bring money onto a "gambling site".So could someone update me on what happened?They just locked everyone's funds for a long time?And as of now, you still can't use neteller to deposit to Full Tilt or anything?What software do you guys use, what online service lets you do such a thing?

Isn't this the dude who got his girlfriend some energy drinks for their anniversary?Bahahahaha.

^^^^That has to be Gerald Ford... oh wait.. he said 2 Grams, it's gotta be George Bush.

Oh well, what gets me is people assume it's for cheating, if I was going to cheat I'd use something like Juice Dust, or something, not something that can be SEEN by the naked eye.But, this is a poker forum and yeah, it is a pretty suspicious question X_XOh well.
