  1. This episode will be hugely entertaining. Whether you like NWP or not, Micon's a hell of a poker player--and he's hysterical. I won't spoil it for anyone, but, there's a confrontation between himself and Jamie Gold on one of tonight's episodes. If you followed the ME at all you know Micon cashed real deep in it, and this is a big reason why.
    Thanks for the heads up!
  2. wait wait wait!This is too funny.Why do you CHOOSE to spell that way and use that kind of grammar. Really. Seriously. I am dying to know.Also,Be carefull of clashing with Royal. He is a really big deal as you might have heard. Be nice or you will find yourself having to create a new profile after this one was banned.

  3. Yeah me too. I'm in the low buy-in but it seems everyone is dropping out like flies.
    I can't say I am surprised but seriously, that is so stupid. Someone should post the names of those that did not pay and backed out.shameful
  4. Ok here is the easiest way for me to make my point:You can not win the tournament without having all the chips.And I can say: You can lose the tournament if players are eliminated. But you can't say: You can lose the tournament with all the chips.So while a lot of people might make a lot of arguments against my thoughts on this issue and be right, you I beat hands down here.Mark
    Ok first off,I need to appologise for my attitude earlier. Someone must have piss.ed in my weaties this morning. I really should not have made it so personal.However,You can not have all the chips if players are not eliminated. I am sorry but I win. While having all the chips is very very important, you can not have them without eliminated players. Thus proving my argument that it is a happy mix of both.AAHHHHHHHHthank you
  5. You know why it doesn't make sense to you? Because you care about moving up in the money. Not about winning.Not having the masses agree isn't a problem for me.Mark
    Ok here is the absulute easiest way to make my point. I hope I was able to dumb it down enough for you:You can not win the tournament without players being eliminated.
  6. Do you not understand that what you are talking about is not bluffing?(AGAIN, ONLY IF I think there is a chance my hand beats the all in guy. Nobody is saying bluff with 54o or something that has no show down value)There.This is the signal that you've realized you are a tard and are subtly trying to shift the direction of the argument.People say don't bluff into a side pot. What do you do? Immediatly and emphatically disagree.Later, perhaps after a tasty sangwich, you realize your error.Instead of typing half a page of arguing in which you are actually agreeing, just say "I was wrong, sorry guys."It will make you look a ton better.
    Wow thank you for helping me prove my point to Mark.Now MARK,'Your logic is in fact retarded. The fact I have to explain why proves you are retarded.Tournament play is a happy medium of building chipstacks AND eliminating players. If you notice the point of the thread (as reconfirmed by nopunk) is why you should NOT BLUFF at a side pot. I stated in my rebuttle that it is different if you feel your hand is the winner against all in.Is this making sense to you?If you don't understand why you should also be worried about eliminating the field AND building chipstack than I would rather not explain that to you and instead invite you to play in every tourny I am in.Thank you very much.
  7. Love that somehow you're a jerk now for betting at a dry sidepot, like its just morally wrong or something. You know why you think someone is a jerk? Because you don't care about winning. You JUST care about moving up in the money. That is why you feel this way. And thats just fine, nothing wrong there. But lets not all act like we're really trying to win when we all believe bluffing someone out of a pot BECAUSE THEY MIGHT HAVE THE WINNING HAND is a bad idea....???????Betting at a dry sidepot is bad strategy if what is most important to you is moving up in the money. If you care about winning the damn thing, you will do whatever you think will increase your chances of getting all the chips, including pushing someone out of a pot that could potentially beat you.Mark
    WHY WHY WHY do people keep saying this. Don't you realize it is the same damn thing!!! You can't win if people are not eliminated. You have to think about best ways to eliminate players to win! COME ON! USE YOUR DAMN BRAIN BEFORE TYPING RETARDED POSTS LIKE THAT!Now in answer to OP's questions:1no2noKeep in mind that the term is "bluffing a dry side pot" not "betting when I have a made hand into the dry side pot" There is certainly nothing wrong with the latter.
  8. poker=saltines? Don't quite follow the food to poker analogy, especially since I am not being forced to eat them, just like I'm not being forced to play poker. I can play when I want and I can eat a saltine when I want. If the game is as wildly popular as claimed, then there should be no issue with more tournaments from the WSOP and WPT. People will play them just as much as the limited numbers now.
    I am not sure why I am going to but let me break it down for you:you have to imagine that you have never had a saltine. Imagine that I gave you ONE saltine and you LOVED it. It was the best thing ever. Now if I said I would only give you ONE saltine a week if you met me on the corner down the street to get it you would bust your azz to get there for it.Now if I told you I would be on that corner for the rest of your life never sleeping you would simply come and go as you had a craving not worrying that I might not be there tomorrow.Making sense yet? NO? why does that not surprise me. Let my try againL:Simple supply and demand (you went to high school right?).if there is an unlimited supply the demand goes down. You have to manage both equally. Playing in a WPT event or WSOP event if it is going on every day all year round is not as exciting as planning to play when it comes to my town next. People would play less if it was no big deal.
  9. Nah, let someone else make the point. I already have. There is a racist feeling against Jamie Gold and the people who hate him most are the deep down, hard core racists (anti-Jew). Gold was vindicated--he was Gandolfini's agent. And he won the WSOP when DN or you or I didn't. His style is to play 80% of his hands and this new strategy in big tournaments is the only way you'll have a shot at the final table from now on. Now I know why all the best pros failed to cash. They base their strategy on concepts created by Sklanksy and others when the tournaments were lucky to have 300 players.100,000 bad players = play 100% of your hands--its like playing the lottery.8000 players bad = 80% rule (play 80% of your hands)3000 players bad = 30% rule (play thirty percent of your hands.)100 greatest players alive = play 1% of your handsThat's the new Gold en rule in tournaments with large numbers of loose, agressive/passive players
    Holy crap I hate you. I knew from all of the other posts you made that I would hate you. Freakin 88 posts and calling for bans.
