  1. From Bluff Magazine:

    Eventually Phil gets tired of my nagging. He corners Matt Savage at a wedding, and talks him into giving me a discount. “She’s essentially dead money,” he explains. “I’ll pose for pictures…” I add helpfully.Matt agrees with Phil’s assessment of my skills, or perhaps my celebrity status is a factor. Whatever the reason, I’m in for a reduced fee.
    Jennifer Tilly got into the event on reduced fee? How does this work? Am I totally naive about this sort of thing, because to me this seems like a huge deal...Ray(Edit, misread, it was bay 101 not wsop)
  2. FEELINGS MUTUALI’m flattered that you’re even familiar with my work. Did you read that short story I did, about those animals, who took over their farm, only they were just as corrupt as their owners? You know, that one.
    Fable?
  3. I can't wait for tourist season.  Best time of year at Casino AZ.  Me, spademan, and any other Arizona fcp'er who is interested will be going there in mid-september for a few beers and to play.  I'm going to create a thread then, but if you know you'll want to go PM me and I'll make sure you know about it.
    I heard of such a thing. I'd say post the thread with details.. It will depend highly on my schedule...Ray
  4. I had my worst day of poker yesterday money wise. Strangely enough I felt like I had my best day of poker PLAYING-wise.I just never hit a thing, and at microlimits, you need to catch cards at some point. My stats for yesterday included the following:Zero flush draws hitting.Zero straight draws hitting.Top Two pair losing to a set twice. Both times my Top2 was flop, their set was turn and river respectively.Zero pocket pairs above 6, zero hits of a set with the one's I did get.Zero Hits for a pair with AK, AQ, AJ, AT. One hit with KJ suited when a jack landed on the flop, but so did a queen, and two people had a matching queen.My one funny "exception" was as follows: I had pocket fours, I limped and there were five players. The board came 356 rainbow. I bet out with the pocket pair and an open ended straight draw. Turn came 4. Woo hoo, my straight missed but the set hit. While there was four to a straight on the board, I felt I had to bet knowing if I got raised I was in trouble, all called. River was a 7. I still bet and two people folded, I guess they thought I had an 8. But the rest called and it was a three way split pot with the straight on the board. Bleh.I think this is the worst mental issue for me. If I feel like I am playing well, but the cards are pooping on me, I get incredibly furstrated. Its not even a matter of bad beats, its just lack of cards to win with.ok /whine offRay

  5. They don't call, they DO send a 6'8" black dude named "Leroy" to your home adress to check ID. Now, Leroy will still give you your money, even if you're underage, but you may have to work out some sort of compensation.This normally involves grabbing your ankles and praying for death.Good luck.
    Leroy Jenkins?Ray
  6. Wow, I am teh supar thread killer today apparently.To continue my annoyance that I am finding with Poker Office. I notice it has a position report.But the positions are 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10.This is pretty useless since during that session, sometimes position 6 was middle position, and sometimes it was Button, depending on number of players. Does Poker tracker do it like this, or does it do SB, BB, UTG, EP, MP, LP, Butt?Ray

  7. My only saving grace on drunken binges is that I switched to play money, a strategy I strongly suggest. But that wouldn't have worked for you. Your description showed a serious self destructive urge you need to watch out with. It looked like a huge built up frustration that just had to come out.For that, I have a punching bag. If you don't have one, I'm gonna suggest that as well.Beat yourself up for a day on it so you don't forget it easily, then move on. Good luckRay

  8. Blatant Hijack attempt.So I downloaded Poker Office and am in Evaluaton mode on it, playing some hands on Royal Vegas Poker to test it out. I love the overlay and love the interface. But after the session I went to look at the stats and couldn't find anything remotely like a VPIP stats report. Am I just missing it or is this really not a function of Poker Office? I admit I love the Poker Office interface much more than poker tracker, but if it doesn't provide the stats I need....ray

  9. Results:econ_tim has 9s 9c (three of a kind, nines). UTG+1 has 6h 6c (three of a kind, sixes). MP3 has Ad 8c (two pair, aces and eights). CO has As Kd (one pair, aces). Outcome: econ_tim wins $4.74.
    I got pwned like this last night. I had pocket 6's with a flop of AQ6 rainbow. Too bad my opponent has pocket aces. :(Ray
  10. what was up when I think Norman Chad said the only card that can come for the KK guy is another king or he is out of here...when the board read 5757..seems to me another 5 or 7 and we have a chop....
    5's and 7's are -EV.Bump to keep this on the front page., sorry. :)Ray
