there was a big theft of pappy 20 a few weeks back, I wonder if your friend got a hot bottle.
That's the reason I told him to google it. Keep up.

Not sure why I'm posting this here, but a friend of mine just graduated. I gave him a pretty generic $100 bottle of scotch, and then he gave me a bottle in return. "Oh man, thanks... so much. You know how much I love scotch! Hey, take this in return? No, really, I will never drink it. My dad got it for me for graduation." He handed me a bottle of Pappy 20. I laughed and almost opened it and started drinking from the bottle before I realized he wasn't kidding, and that it was a real bottle of Pappy 20. I gave him the bottle back, told him to google it and put on on eBay, and then I just killed myself. I stabbed myself in the neck seven times and bled out on his front lawn.
My corpse was eaten by like 12 raccoons, which were in turn eaten by a few coyotes and an owl.

"Take the diamonds! I'll catch up to you!" Hahaha, this show is the best show ever. How did this get past pilot? I mean, it's on Cinemax, so who cares, but still... that's a real TV station. Give me 4K, a Smith Corona, and 6 weeks and I'll wri
HAHAHA OH GOD THE CHICK THE SHERIFF ****ED WAS THE AMISH GUY'S DAUGHTER!
Edit: I must stop. Will somebody please suggest I liveblog this show? I seriously want to spend the next 36 hours writing about Banshee. "This thing could go from bad to worse.... fast." Then the sheriff beats up like 3 guys for no reason and goes into a club where everyone is doing ecstasy, and, wow, now he just punched another guy, BECAUSE DRUG DEALERS.
I am going to spend the rest of my life watching Banshee, listening to house music from like 5 years ago, and having a seizure because I got hit with a bad dose of E. "We gotta shut this down fast. Everyone clear out, it's going south." "Five-oh, move out now." "SOMEBODY HELP. HEEEEEEEELP!" (gunshots)

Somebody told me to watch a show called Banshee. I did. It might be the worst thing I've ever seen. I actually recommend you all watch it, because it is that horrible. The writing.... "I am just a broken down ex con, living my life from day to day." "I'm the new sheriff in town!" It's amazing. I honestly couldn't write shit this bad if I was trying. "I'm Kat Moody. You killed my husband." (Sheriff runs his mouth) (Kat Moody slaps him) (Randoms roll up) "You Moody boys sure do like your six shooters. You got permits for those?" AND THEN IT GETS SO MUCH WORSE BECAUSE HE READS THEM THEIR RIGHTS AND THEY'RE LIKE "WHY DON'T YOU SHUT UP" AND SHERIFF SAYS "WHY DON'T YOU MAKE ME" and they have guns drawn and they puss out.
"IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD AN ATTORNEY, THE COURT WILL APPOINT ONE FOR YOU. HE'LL PROBABLY SUCK." That's real shit.
I'm watching every minute of this show. I feel like BigD might appreciate it, as well
EDIT: That dialog? All stuff that came up while I was writing this post. SO AMAZING YOU GUYS

Well, what's missing is I was up on my high horse about racism, mostly as a needle to DN This thread came out right after his Blackface video block, and I thought his black face jamacian video to be the most unintentionally hilarious thing I've ever seen. It's clear he was 100% oblivious to the fact it would be offensive. He's lucky poker celebrity isn't real celebrity or he'd had gotten real heat about that.
I mean, everything I said in this thread was true, but I was laying it on pretty thick because I wanted to add fuel to the black face fire, as is my wont.
Arg. So my "assume everyone is sincere all the time" position is foiled again. Kind of.

Better Off Dead
One Crazy Summer
I love both of these films. Did you know that the BEST MURRAY BROTHER (Joel) is in the latter?
I'd rank them:
Joel
Brian Doyle
William
(Edward, Andrew)
I'll never forgive W and BD for shutting Joel out of Groundhog Day. INEXCUSABLE

I am going to spend the next month filming my cats chasing laser pointers and jumping off walls and shit. I swear to God that shit will win an Academy Award. I'll post it here, first, in case any of you want to spend 75K or so to buy it BEFORE THE HYPE

You were killing this thread six years ago, man. Killing it. Some of the comments in defense of blackface (or whatever, I don't now, I couldn't track the origin of the debate very well), are just...? I seriously thought every single person was joking the entire time. "I'm all for ending most racism, but let's not go overboard guys. NIGGERS GONNA NIG AM I RIGHT?" So stupid. Well done.
A few weeks ago, at work, this guy, (his name is Arthur, 55ish ex-biker with a bum leg and a cane) suggested, very publicly, that he'd love to see Obama be lynched and hanged from a tree. I instantly perma-banned him (it didn't stand because my boss is a tool), and when he asked why, I told him I won't tolerate hate speech. "Hate speech hate speech hate speech what are you talking about? I didn't say no hate speech. I just said I wanta see that man punished for treason!" By... LYNCHING him? and HANGING HIM FROM A TREE? "How is that hate speech? How is that racist?"
Black guy who was listening to the whole thing kinda steams out of the room and comes back about 8 minutes later. Eventually, I get Arthur out of there, and I apologize. "Look, I'm.... I don't know what to say. He's a racist ass. I'm sure he'll be back, but I'll do whatever I can to make his life miserable forever." Guy says it's no big deal, not my fault, etc.
A few minutes later Arthur comes storming back in. Somebody keyed his car and POOPED ON HIS HOOD. Just took a huge dump on the hook of his car. I immediately look over at the black guy, who makes big eyes at me, and taps his nose with his right index finger twice, and goes right back to his hand.
Pretty awesome.

No wang, I was talking about how the OP = El. G., not you= wang, keep up please.
what are you talking about
-
Wang musta been high as fvck that night.
I've given up responding to "Nick Cave = Wang" posts, but this is clearly directed at me. I am not this weird asshole, either. USING CAPS TO EXPRESS EMPHASIS IS COMMON

LOL. I don't know who The Machine is, but I'm on his team.

I love Sterling. He is the kind of owner I like to imagine I'd be.
Also, JJ Reddick...I always thought he was worthless until McGee pointed out to me that he had his girlfriend sign an abortion contracted, which stipulated he would date her if she'd abort his child. Such a strong move.
Yeah, that turned me around on him as well. Total power move. You gotta have at least 9 inches of titanium in your shorts to say to a woman, "If you agree, in writing, to abort that baby, I agree to let you be my girlfriend for a period of not less than one (1) year," WHILE HAVING EVERY REASON TO BELIEVE SHE WILL TAKE THAT DEAL. I've spent at least ten hours discussing this with people.

So why is africa, with its year round livable climate, abundant natural resources,still mostly prehistoric in lifestyle?

Because it makes boys feel like big men when they can put others down.
We're discussing a 4 card game. He's discussing 4 card hands. It's the first time I've ever been confused in my life.
But thank you for making the universe a place in which for the rest of my life whenever I want to see where I gave away free energy I need only scroll down see where some cracker took the first opportunity granted him to poke fun at me for being stupid.
justice would be everytime you ever ever use a machine powered by my mechanicism you recall that you said "**** you" unprovoked as soon as you could.
This thread is filled with a love you can't yet begin to comprehend. You bring negativity to it. Not only that but we're discussing bleeding edge poker and you're making me self conscious about whether or not my questions are silly. For example, I had to question whether or not I was stupid for wanting to know what that means "31 pts is the standard."
If you don't post in this thread any more I'll dedicate "how to win a lottery of 10 potential numbers" to you.
have a blessed day.
I was just frakking around with the first post. There was no malice in it. I guess I can see why, given the exact right emotional parameters and a few base assumptions, you were "offended," or whatever your response was, but it was goofy at the absolute worst.
The second one was borne of mild irritation. "THIS IS MY THREAD DO NOT TAINT IT WITH NONSENSE!"
Now I'm just... ??
Your position is that I made you feel stupid? NOBODY HAS ANY IDEA WHAT YOU GUYS ARE TALKING ABOUT FOR THE MOST PART YOU ASS. That is not your fault, and I don't hold you to account for it, but don't make me feel like an ass for your insecurities. It is absolutely not my fault that you feel, sometimes, sensitive or something. I don't even... what? This is a really interesting thread, and I've read every word, but if you're going to break down and lose the positive feeling just because I made a silly joke... come on. Don't you WANT to feel stupid sometimes? Don't you WANT to be wrong? Since when do you care about looking bad in front of people?
I thought you were having an totally open, totally honest, totally vulnerable dialog. Apparently that's not true.
I think I know what 31 points means -- probably a counting standard? -- but holy crap, for the most part just fuck you.
EDIT: I meant to say you're being really self-important, but I forgot, so consider this me saying that. Still appreciate the thread. Will read every word. Will even stop posting in order to not derail (assuming you respond), because derailing is bad. But that doesn't mean you're not being a self-important baby right now. TELL ME HOW TO BRING THE BEAUTY BACK PLEASE

If you aren't trying to troll or level then thank you for your contribution, but please allow us to speak for ourselves without stipulation. imagine what this thread would look like if one person guessed the meaning of each of our posts
If you are trying to troll or level, then that is one of the least kind things you can do to me.
I wasn't trolling or leveling, because, what? But I was poking fun at you. I mean, you're sitting here, talking "high-level poker strategy," and you ask a guy who says,
"For instance, AAxx, where xx is trashy, plays best preflop when the pot is really small or really big. However, it only plays well in big pots pre when the field and stacks are shallow after the flop. On the flop, the optimal # of bbs are the same, either really big or small, depending on the field and strength of flop, and those ranges stay relatively consistent through the hand. On other hands, like broadway rundowns play best in medium pots pre, and much better playing really big post."
if he's talking about Omaha. If that question is not up for ridicule... come on and fuck you. If you can't take some needling, fuck you. If you just phrased the original question wrongly, still fuck you.
-
I'm not super-familiar with the game, but I can't find a math that makes not insta-shipping the right play. It sucks you don't have two spades, or something, but there is absolutely no range against which you aren't way ahead.
Better spot? What kind of "better spot" can you possibly imagine than this? Ever?

Hint: see above

I just wanted to say how much fun it was to guest host the Birthday Thread for the weekend. Really humbled, you guys. Hopefully I'll be invited back next weekend, but totally not taking anything for granted.
Can't wait for next weekend, you guys.

I view Back to the Future as a definite 80's movie, but I just don't view Top Gun the same way.
I am pretty sure anything featuring that much Kenny Loggins is 80s enough for everyone here.

SPR = stack/pot ratio
and are you talking about PLO?
I am pretty sure he is talking about stud/8. His use of the word "rundowns" is what tipped me off
-
I guess I have to see Real Genius since it was mentioned, seconded and it gets oddly high rankings on various lists for this same topic.
I'm pretty sure it won the Academy Award for Most Awesome Quintessential 1980s College Film.
I remember reading somewhere a while back that the nerdy female love interest was the inspiration for Rescue Ranger Gadjet Hackwrench.
And, really, it's a solid film. I just did some googling, and it was pretty well reviewed. I guess I always thought it was MY weirdly random movie, but I've been disabused of that notion a few times recently.

I was watching Workman up there and just laughing my ass off. What the hell was Farrell thinking?
And the call is obstruction. Everybody gets that wrong, for some reason, even the TV and radio guys for the first half hour after the game. Interference is when the baserunner interferes with the fielding team, whereas obstruction is the opposite.

What? No, of course I wouldn't care if it was stolen. Besides, what are the odds an unfenced bottle of Pappy showed up in my friend's dad's hands? It's just that it's worth a lot, and I didn't feel comfortable snagging a rare bottle from a friend who didn't know better. How big of an ******* do you have to be to give a guy a bottle of Speyside you can find at any high end liquor store, and accept the best bourbon in the world in return?
