  1. My bad - thats right - was on the 03 team that lost to florida.
  2. Friday, December 21 @ Hustler casino had already been a good day for me. I was up around $1500 in just over 4 hours playing 5-5 NL (300-500 buyin). Around 10:30 two tall white surfer looking dudes walk in and though I thought they looked familiar, I just couldnt place their faces with who they were (and lets face it, Los Angeles is filled with people who either a) are famous or B) try to look like someone famous). They both got to sit down at the table to my right and I was in seat 9 so I could keep looking over there to watch what was going on. The two of them were both extremely loud and
  3. Then you are saying that EVERYONE at the table did - around $150 if its a 6 handed game - for $10/20 on tilt, i find that HARD TO BELIEVE!
  4. According to his rules:He never buys into a cash game or a Sit & Go with more than 5 percent of his total bankroll (there is an exception for the lowest limits: he is allowed to buy into any game with a buy-in of $2.50 or less). He doesn’t buy into a multi-table tournament for more than 2 percent of his total bankroll, but he’s allowed to buy into any multi-table tournament that costs $1. If at any time during a No-Limit or Pot-Limit cash-game session the money on the table represents more than 10 percent of his total bankroll, he must leave the game when the blinds reach him. Thinking abo
  5. If you guys want to play (and meet and talk - because she is VERY COOL and I've hung out with her many times), just go to LA and play at the Hustler. She's usually there weekly (along with many other actors/athletes). I don't know why Hustler gets them - perhaps because its smaller - or perhaps Larry has invitations to them. Dunno. I definitely think the play at Hustler is fine for me and the tournaments are great (20k guaranteed nightly).
  6. It is very clear in every casino I have ever been to that "casino chips can only be used for gaming purposes on the premises and not used for cash." He states in his article that it can be used to buy groceries. IF thats true, it hasnt been since I've been true for quite some time. The minute he said, "i got this chip at another property" essentially for a cash substituion of some sort, he admitted to breaking a nevada gaming rule. It sucks. But its true.
  7. For those of you that still believe that Daniel "sold" FCP to a third party, I think this whole thing proves that never really did happen. Daniel has always been and always was the sole owner of FCP and tried to take on the big boys, but lost. it was a valliant attempt.
  8. If you're gonna use fancy words, spell it right - its QUEUE. What you wrote is spanish. for WHAT UP!
  9. You might be right.. But if you remember how you confirmed it was to receive a few pennies in your account and then verify those amounts. Or, to confirm your mailing address, they sent a password to your house. Even the cost of sending all those out and doing the deposits to the accounts is less than the interest they are making on everyones money.
  10. No one finds the following passage a bit sketchy:"Funds will be distributed either by electronic transfer to the bank account on record with NETELLER or by a cheque to be sent to a mailing address as confirmed by the customer. If a US customer has a bank account already registered with NETELLER, funds transfer will be by electronic transfer subject to confirmation by the customer that the registered bank account remains valid."It looks like they purposely added the "subject to confirmation" clause to (as I noticed when I used to deal with Neteller) probably prolong this whole thing longer.
  11. So it sounds like some of the crimes were from the indian tribes. Amazing how we can prosecute someone for committing a crime on the Indian Reservation, but while I was living in Santa Barbara and the leader of the Chumash Casino shot and killed his wife after coming home drunk, they were unable to arrest him. The tribe said they would take care of it and apparently as long as he didn't leave the reservation, he was safe. I believe he still works as one of the supervisors of the casino to this day. Strange justice system.
  12. For those of you with kids, you know what I mean. This is a show on Disney Channel that on the surface looks fine. But, once you watch an episode or two, you quickly realize what its teaching our youth is TERRIBLE. The show gets its name from the fact that kids can call this company and "replace" some person they don't like - be it their teacher, coach, etc. Thats NOT what we should be teaching kids. Learning to live amongst our peers is what we should be teaching them. I don't like you much anyway, Daniel, but I think if you had kids (please don't, btw, your lifestyle is a terrible infl
  13. People should once again understand that the "paperwork" that a bank will file for amounts over $10k do not go to the IRS! They go to a completely different department in the Treasury and our government does not share information easily. What you should understand though is another form that I've spoken about on this site ad naseum that is more disconcerning. It is the SAR (Suspicious Activity Report). The CTR (Cash Transaction Report) is a report that the bank will notify you when they fill out. They need some info from you regarding the transaction, so they will ask it. However, the SA
  14. I can tell you FOR SURE that at the BIKE and HP (both places I have been involved in a bad beat JP), that they will pay the BETTER of the losers the 50% (or 40% as some places do). This has been discussed ad naseum with floor people and I'm surprised a floor person at your casino did not know the answer. The worst part is when there are 3 people involved and these are the hands and boards:Player 1: 4s JsPlayer 2: Ah KhPlayer 3: 8h 9hJc Jd Jh Th QhIf all players are "ALL IN" then ALL HANDS MUST BE SHOWN FOR THE JACKPOT TO COUNT. If Player 1 waits for the two other players to show their hands
  15. Actually, it is the THIRD nuts. You cant have BOTH straight flushes out there! Only one person can have a straight flush and thus, you have the third nuts..
  16. You mean the third nuts, right?? Tell me you meant third nuts.. Yeah, you meant third nuts.. Okay..
  17. Cards speak.. Players don't. The floor made the right call. Once the cards are shown, they speak. Doesn't matter what the player says. I play with a guy all the time that after seeing my hand, will flip over his hand and always claim a higher hand. Doesn't matter what he says, and it doesn't matter if I muck my hand. Once I showed the table my hand, its live and deserves the pot if its the best hand.
  18. I guess you havent cashed too many 5k or greater chips. Every casino I have played at calls the pit that you claimed to have won it at and asks whether or not the win was legit. Its not just MGM. And to the person that claims that if the Bellagio did this they would move "the big game" to the Wynn. You really think the Bellagio makes any real money off the big game happening there?The trick is not to cash it, but to go and sit at a blackjack table.. First buy in for like $500 in cash.. play for a bit.. then put the 5k on the table and ask to break it down.. play for a little bit and then
  19. You sound like you know what you are talking about. Which pornstars came out of UCSB? I don't know of any (actually, I have NO CLUE of any pornstars coming out of ANY college) - unless you consider Michael Douglas a pornstar. I will say that my wifes roommate did take a class in adult film whilst attending. Interesting class. I helped out with the homework which was to watch a bunch of porn at home and take notes. Pretty funny stuff.Also, regarding your knowledge of UCSB - where/what is Isle Vista? Sounds to me like someone who maybe got denied from there. Bummer dude.. It is/was a fu
  20. Its a Gaucho thing.. Gauchos rule..Gaucho Alum '95
  21. Considering he took the idol of most of the people on this board for a LARGE amount of money headsup, I doubt it. People here think hes just a luckbox. Daniels the greatest ever and anyone else can be annoying.
  22. Anyone else have a problem with Antonious going to the left hand to the ear thing? I mean, Fergusons interlocked fingers under his chin for 10 minutes is annoying, but not so much as Patricks. Okay, maybe im just annoyed that he is 10x better looking and 500x richer than me. Whatever.. I guess its that "do the same thing no matter what hand you have." But did he have to pick "im going to take my left hand and pull on my earlobe?"
  23. If its the same guy I think it is, he's a local LA player I see all the time at bike and commerce tournies. I've met him and always called him spiderman as that is what everyone else called him. He also seemed to know James Woods pretty well as one time I was talking with him, Jimmy came by and interrupted and started talking to him. ..
  24. There is a a guy at the Hustler who three weeks ago claimed he was going to kill himself if he lost his bankroll. This was at the weekly $150 tournament. Someone asked him how big his bankroll was and he replied, "about $1000." Well, last week he was at the tournament again and a lot of people were talking about it and when he busted, I could see that perhaps he really was serious about his dilemma. Oh well.. Not much any of us can do - Yes, I feel sorry.. No, I'm not going to stop playing them or play any differently against them. If I don't take their money, someone else will. Its no
  25. Well, if erick had actually written what you wrote, he'd be the idiot. Anyone can read WHOLE cards. I mean, they are right there in front of you. Perhaps he meant HOLE cards?
