Bad Combo...short stacked and card dead...waiting on the inevitable.

Just satellited in to the million.

I'm in.....

Maybe if u don't like it, u don't have to read it....just trying to see if anyone else is playing.

Okay, the $50 didn't work out so well. Anybody in the $109?? I'm sitting left of TheWacoKidd.

Make that 5 O'clock.....I can't tell time. Anybody in? Didn't have the jack for the Million this week

Argosy isn't that bad. I live two minutes away. The 1/3NL with 300 max is most popular. On weekends they have a 2/5 NL. Pretty soft players.

First one in at least 18 months

What about her back??

She's supposed to be back tonight. I may have to make another trip.

That's what I was looking for!!

I'm sitting at Argosy Casino in Indiana last night playing 1-3, when in walks Capt. Tom's girl Brandi to sit at my table. I didn't recognize her until she immediately started ratlling off the story of her and the Capt. I said you're the 2+2 girl and she looked at me like I was crazy. Quite the name dropper she is.On a bad note.....she did bluff me off of my QQ on a A high flop!!

Hey Nutz - How far along are they on the casino renovation? I go out there every year in March for the b-ball tourney. Went in Dec. and they had half of the casino done. Just curious. I'm going back out on March 14.The old poker room at Aladdin was really cool. It was in the enclosed area in the middle of the casino. I suspect the new one will be good when they get it done. I've cleaned up in poker every time I've been there, so I hope the games don't change too much!!

Yeah, it was right around $1K apiece. One guy just got back from smoking a cigarette and almost didn't get dealt in.

Hit the bad beat jackpot last night at my local casino. Quad 5's got beat by a straight flush. $17,000 jackpot!!Cha-ching!!

I stopped by the Fontana lounge on Sunday evening. Saw Devilfish at the final table. Marcel Luske and Amarillo Slim were sittting down to play a satellite. Allen Cunningham was playing in the 2500 event. Dutch Boyd and Bryan Devonshire were hanging out taking in the action.I played at the Aladdin all weekend. Took 3rd and 5th in two tournies and scored a little profit in the 1-2 NL. Pretty good weekend overall.Oh yeah, also saw Daniel hanging out at the Rio poker room on Friday night.

It looked like a good play to me. He's probably not calling a pre-flop all-in with K6. If he doesn't get lucky and hit both cards on the flop, DN would've got the max out of the hand. If DN moves pre-flop, I think he loses out on some potential chips.

I know I couldn't have. My wife was actually sitting next to me watching it. I looked at her said, "Honey, I would've lost every penny we had right there." She immediately took my laptop away.

If I recall, though, wasn't just what he had in his box at Bellagio? I'm sure he also had some in LA if he was commuting that frequently.

i was pleasantly suprised at the structures i saw when i was in vegas last week. In LA the best you could even hope for is a 200 max buy-in table with 2/5 blinds. Meanwhile in Vegas i played in a 500 max buy-in table with 1/2 blinds. Unfortunately everyone was a nit and they were all scared to lose their buy-ins. I eventually played at the Aladdin which had a 200 (or 300 - cant remember) max buy-in with 1/2 blinds and the action was fast and loose and i was able to do well. Starting with 250 big blinds is awesome, but even more so if its a loose table. I cleaned up in that game at Aladdin in M

I built my bankroll multi-tabling $20 SNG's on Stars and moved up from there. I didn't find much difference between the $20 and $50. I played those for a while and moved to ring games.
