  1. Yes, it's garbage. Much like Beavis and Butthead were garbage. Same network too, imagine that!The show also has nothing to do with poker so perhaps we can move on mes amis!
  2. What happened to the old events? List looks incomplete... Sorry, been a while since I followed the tourneys.
  3. I find it funny that players are expected to tip in a casino -- as if the casino doesn't make enough to pay dealers a higher wage. In my opinion, it's the casino/WSOP folks who should be blamed if the staff was undercompensated for their work. Lord knows they made a bundle on this operation.As for the winner, it's his choice and frankly I admire him for being able to resist the uncomfortable pressure to throw tens of thousands of dollars away on a tip.
  4. I can do it too - just PM me if you want help.
  5. Chances of Raymer repeating: about 5%Chances of Raymer getting mugged again if he repeats: 50%
  6. Does anyone know whether Gus played in the WSOP this year? Haven't seen him anywhere and I'm a bit surprised.
  7. "Bob Dole like Scotty Nguyen. Bob Dole gonna play some poker with Scotty. Bob Dole also talk in third person."
  8. Just about everywhere in Windsor accepts US dollars, and you can exchange money at the Casino no problem. Despite this, I find it more convenient to carry Canadian currency.
  9. With tournaments, you need to look for big wins, and you won't get big wins unless you play a lot of tournaments. Be prepared to put some real BR behind MTTs -- otherwise you are just wasting your time and money.
  10. Thanks. I did go all-in, he had 88 but the flop was all blanks and I was out. The thing about this hand that is interesting to me is that I think the button wanted me to call and purposefully raised 3xBB to get it. He called me immediately. I think his plan was to try and get me to go all-in on a less than stellar hand by representing a steal attempt -- though AJo was probably a little better than what he was hoping for. While he had more than twice as many chips as me, he was in the bottom quarter of the standings at this time.
  11. Game: NLHE, no rebuys or add-ons availBlinds: 100/200 +25 anteYour current place: 31st out of 31 remaining playersCash: 19th or betterYou are on the BB with AJo. All fold to button who raises to 600. SB folds. It's your move. Button has about 5500 in chips. You have about 2100 in chips. You have no real reads on the button as he just came over from another table a few hands prior.
  12. You have 3 limpers, one of them is bound to have something. Plus the fact that you're a small stack will increase the chances they will call b/c they probably know you're getting desperate relative to the blinds. So moving all-in or raising 50% of your stack is not my choice. I wouldn't call with A8 either b/c it would cost 10% of your stack and even if you do hit the A on the flop your kicker is not that great. Not worth the risk. Folding is my choice. P.S. In 9 quizzes I have never gotten one correct so take this with a grain of salt!!
  13. How on earth could I have known it was a rebuy tourney? :roll:
  14. Albari acted before the poster. He also called a pre-flop bet that was 4xBB. And it's not all that obvious not to value-bet here. It was well done.
  15. Perhaps too much poker lovin and not enough to girly?Balance, young padawon, balance.
