Nutz,I remember you. Yah I was Keller's assistant for a while, and ran his site for him.Chrozzo,I have 3 Guinness in the fridge, so will go with that. I also have 2 Becks Oktoberfest just calling my name, and 3 Budweiser american ale... not calling my name.

Suited, I saw that post and found the coincidence hilarious, so I replied.

We have a chief beer officer now?! Sweet! What beer should I drink tonight? I prefer german dunkels, but have a wider variety of tastes.hi -
The fact that this thread has about 500 posts since 11/28 kind of discredits the lack of activity Steve is talking about. :PHowever, as someone who has not been to the site if probably over a year, and who just randomly came back to see this thread, I think I can comment.My reason for stopping activity on the site was primarily to get Keller's site up and running, and all of my effort went into that to make it work. When his site eventually closed down, I was on a down trend in my interest in poker, and pretty much stopped playing for a year and also stopped visiting the various forums.After a while, one of the 2+2 mods convinced me to go back there and at least keep posting in their off topic forum, which I did. I like a lot of the people here, but when it came to off topic conversation, I honestly am not a big fan of the 500+ page FCP army threads which go by so fast I feel like I can't keep up. OOT in 2+2 does that now as well, but it goes by less quickly and seems "manageable" in my mind. Even my "i'm back" post I contemplated posting in the FCP army thread, then decided it would just get lost there, and made a new thread instead.When I did start playing poker again, I was already in 2+2, so I just stayed there and started posting strat there. I thought of FCP, but the actual strat threads in FCP always seemed to lack a lot of response compared to 2+2, so I leaned to there. I always thought of "General" here as my home and the strength of the forum at the time. so, to give Steve some credit to his concern, if there are other's like me for whom general was the place they gravitated, there may be things lacking for them right now. I honestly have not had time to look around and see.Steve, another thing to keep in mind is with the World Series finally behind us, the forum may just be taking a much needed breather. And I'm sure the holiday season doesn't help either. Perhaps January will see a nice resurgence...Ray

So, I was just going along, minding my own business, when out of the blue homnig from the old Kelley forums instan messages me, and we get to talking about old times. I give him updates on some of the people I know from the hold forums (Hitch, Palimax, RaidenRadio and RedShirt), and I notice that I haven't heard from Sbriand in a long time. Homnig mentions that "he probably still hangs at FCP."Wow, haven't thought about FCP for a while. I think the last time I had was when I noticed Nikki as one of my friends on Facebook. I remember the good chats with dna, Nikki, Steve7Stud, (occasionally) Daniel and thought I'd come back and say hi and see who all was still here and posting.... :)So, er, how's life all? :)Ray

I live to serve. I could see this thread was going totally in the wrong direction for General Forum.Ray

Only one thing really reminds me of Tilly.

Worst in recent memory.Villain was the entire reason I was at that table. A horrible player who would make these plays all the time.http://www.pokerhand.org/?1060439Ray

Are you talking Saw Flop % or VP$IP? A VP$IP of 17% is absolutely fine. Also, it's four hours of four tables at full ring. Variance could easily account for it.Ray

Define "nominal fees."I've had two articles published in cardplayer under someone else's byline, for references.Ray

I admit to not being a subscriber, but I have heard nothing but good things from people I know who are subscribers. Nothing but good reviews.Ray

Hey Daniel,What's for lunch?Ray

Although not a huge BKICE fan, I totally see his point here.Toilet, think of it like this:Vegas: Hookers, Blow, partying, gambling, hanging with friends and an exceptionally fun time you will regret missing as one of the last great spontaneous things you still get to do while in school and not trapped down with real life.School: Homework, and sitting at home, probably masturbating to porn.This really should be no contest. You're young. Go have fun.Ray

Ditto for Thunder Keller. Figured I'd say it before someone else did. :)Raychildren do that to ya -
Regarding it being just Vista, nope, I get the lag too on XP. And it's 100% unplayable with Poker Office right now, even just one table.Opening the cashier however, does not seem to effect me either way. I saw that post, but I don't think the cashier thing is widespread.However, I can't seem to win at poker lately no matter what, so maybe it's better this way. :(Ray

Watching Pokerwire coverage, loosh is playing super tight right now, or just not getting involved in many pots it seems..Ray

Good report and not too long at all. Thanks for sharing it.Ray

Well, Mat did ban him from 2+2 recently, so it's entirely possible this is really him.Ray

Note that there will be haters whether you were running away from your past or not. This is "general." :)RayWell I guess it would've been naive to think they're wouldn't be any haters -
The nice part about playing microlimits limit games is that you can watch porn at the same time and still be playing better than most players....Raychange that if you want more money. get good at cash games? -
Agreed. The fact that it was even compared to a Justin Z was silly. I don't think the thing is a big deal at all. But I figured if people wanted to read about it they could.Rayi just read through the threads at P5s. holy **** was that the most boring dribble i ever read in my life. cliff notes: people bitched about things.welcome.
