Fresh off my win of the Neg-O last night, I've been thinking of my play last night and it kind of hit me that poker tournaments are a lot like Nascar races. Your main strategy should be to move up through the field at a nice steady pace with the goal to be around at the end and putting yourself in position to win.Things you need to keep in mind. First and obvious, the table and track are similar shapes. Good pit stop strategy with solid judgement on pre-flop play. Carefully passing and working through the field with strong post-flop play. Even if you go a lap down to the felt, you can still

Negreanu Open - Wednesdays - Nlhe April 9th - 9 Pm Est
Figger replied to dna4ever's topic in General Poker Forum
Pocket 8's is my fav hand. Ty, ty, ty. I finally came through for the sidebets. Bogie was tough, we both played pretty cautious, I just got lucky on small balling him and pounced when the dreamflop hit.I thought it was kind of fitting that Bogie and I go at it at the end, we both came back from short stacks.Great game (this makes up for me not playing last week) -

Did you miss "Other" ?

I had to go with DNA. While I love Bob, I have the top 6 reasons to pick Alan.6. He's 2nd on the all-time post leader list (with only Renae atop of him...insert your own joke here).5. Alan has always sent me my prize when finishing in the top 9 of the Negreanu Open (still wondering what that $50 handling fee is all about?).4. Whenever there's a severe weather warning in Tennessee, the only items on his grocery list are beer, cigs and potato chips.3. The skinny little chicken legged bastard makes me laugh.2. The only person I know whose been raided by the FBI.And the number one reason why

Negreanu Open Mixed Tuesdays - March 25th - 9 Pm Est - Horse
Figger replied to dna4ever's topic in General Poker Forum
Thanks. I had your table up and was watching you abuse them...knowing the main reason you were pushing was to build and sit. But dang, you were catching some cards too.I'm sure my nephew will enjoy the chips. He already plays holdem, but bluffs too much. I'm not positive I passed you, but pretty sure. We'll see when Alan crunches the numbers...someday.Well, I hope you continue to play on Tuesdays if you can. I think I enjoy it more than Wednesday night.See ya on the felt. -

I think I gotcha. You sat your way into 13th place, but with my Donkey like skills I was able to come back from a 500 chip low to finish in 3rd place. I guess there is some merit to that "chip and a chair" theory, because that's the 2nd time I've done that (Ya, it's a fuckin brag post... I know, I know).Let me know if you really, really want the chipset, if not, it's going to be a present for my nephew. -

Obama...worst Thing For America In A Long Time?
Figger replied to nutzbuster's topic in Politics, Economics and News
I see your point about possible racist backlash, but I guess I am the eternal optomist that says America is better than that, but some Americans may not be.I too don't want to see Jimmy Give-Away programs. I believe the government owes it to the poorest of poor to help them get a leg up, through education and training programs; through supporting small business to help them grow and expand (thereby hiring more people) and NOT by becoming their luxury wheel chair, letting them sit on their asses and just collect benefits with no effort from themselves to help themselves.The real threat, of lat -
Obama...worst Thing For America In A Long Time?
Figger replied to nutzbuster's topic in Politics, Economics and News
Nutz.. I usually respect your opinion, but on this issue I have to fervently disagree.If everyone just focuses on his pastor's comments, then, ball game over. If Obama were white, this would not even be an issue. You take a few comments, completely out of context and make that the cruxt of his whole campaign, well that's childish and superficial of those discussing the issues.I'm sorry, but I am tired of the same old, long term politicians running this country. If there isn't some type of dramatic change...like stopping them from rewarding themselves with the best benefits possible, pay rai -

Bawawawawa...Bump at 8 after. -
Dear Ouch 8-s,I'm gonna give this another try, even though you last referred me to Google (and I resolved the situation). However, here's my question. Is there a way to run a program, specifically, a web cam and not have it show as running in the main tool bar?Thanks.

You have a lot of nerve...You come onto this forum, make a lot of posts sharing some of your thoughts and knowledge and start (hopefully) insightful discussion about the game of poker and you don't even have the courtesy to answer a few minor, trivial personal questions from complete strangers. I'm beginning to wonder whether your name is really Steve?
