Okay, call me an idiot, but I just don't understand this. I understand Wynn building a new casino, but why try to compete with the Bellagio for big game players. Isn't this like Phil Knight starting a new shoe company that competes with Nike to sell shoes? Anyways, I'm sure it will be an absolutely unbelievable place to stay and play poker. I can't wait.idiot (j/k). that's what they said when they invented the automobile. it is progress. everything can be made better. they won't try to compete, they will compete and probably be successful. then someone else will come along 10 years from now an

anybody think its funny that nobody has posted if they've lost this year? down $1,100 so far this year. started with a $2,000 roll and have $900 left. my leak is in cash games, i keep moving up too soon and giving it back...and then some before i move back down.just a temporary downswing i'll be back. i wish i had more blocks of time to play MTT's i'm rockin' so far this year there. i came 9th of 117 in the 200/15 fixed saturday and 16th of 126 in the 100/9 fixed sunday. can taste a 1st coming in the near future.today i am starting a new game plan. 1/2 only for the cash table and MTT on the we

all in.

i just checked and it isn't created yet. supposed to be PL Omaha Hi/Lo.

theresa i would but poker mountain does not work well with my system. to start it will change the choice boxes (eg check, fold etc.) to white squares that can't be read. also it will randomly fold me out of hands or close the program on its own. i emailed support and Leo said minimizing the client and then maximizing should cure the white box problem but it doesn't, not to mention auto folding me out of a hand.i feel like i'm missing out... :cry:

"gank" = Brett Jungblut he is signed up for the 200/15 limit tourney, 2/12/05 21:00 at pokerstars. assuming "gank" is refering to his pstars screename.

eddie maybe i should have been more clear. personally i think we were all dummies in that hand. me for chasing the boat and them for capping and calling when the river paired.

tell me honestly, i'm a big boy i can take it. i just sat down at this table and know nothing about the other players.PokerStars Game #1202442869: Hold'em Limit ($2/$4) - 2005/02/11 - 20:27:04 (ET)Table 'Atalante II' Seat #5 is the buttonSeat 1: capt mimmo ($94.50 in chips) Seat 3: TGW88 ($70 in chips) Seat 4: b921 ($40 in chips) Seat 5: bbdm777 ($62.50 in chips) Seat 10: scoots_mc ($78 in chips) scoots_mc: posts small blind $1capt mimmo: posts big blind $2b921: posts big blind $2*** HOLE CARDS ***Dealt to scoots_mc [7s 8s]TGW88: calls $2b921: checks bbdm777: calls $2TGW88 said, "a little pa

anybody here playing in the pokerstars freeroll to the EPT Monte Carlo finale today? i know a couple forum members went to Denmark...well anyway, wish me luck!Go Pats!

I have 6500 summit points burning a hole in my pocket!can you buy a hat with it?

on the home page of this forum there is an ad that states a 100% deposit bonus for fullcontactpoker members is available. click the ad and there is no further information on the bonus. i signed up a month ago but have yet to deposit or play there.is there a 100% matching bonus right now?

"and no the chip is not included"so i can buy it, go to a WPT event and have it autographed even?i would just like to get one of those nifty poker mountain hats daniel wears.

You had me confused, at first. I thought you meant Flint, as in the city I'm from, as in "Roger and Me." Because, man, I don't think Phil Ivey's doing much of ANYTHING in Flint, MI. Let alone playing high-stakes poker. Ice I think Phil Ivey is gonna do an I75 tour this summer Ice...Flint, Saginaw, West Branch, Gaylord, Grayling, Topinabee and Mackinaw City. Should be sweet... :-)

well i didn't do to well either 18th...harumphLemony Snickets Series of Unfortunate Events. Whatever you do don't go see it. I wouldn't even advise renting it.

i'm in...well sort of. going to a movie right now with the kids and hopefully won't blind out in the meantime...can't miss any tourney points...lolp.s. could never get the kids to drink that pediolite when they were young, but the water/gatorade worked great...when they could keep it down.

you are eating soup for lunch with your wife and she thinks you're crazy because you are practicing your chip twirl with the Ritz crackers...

is he the comedian who has the stand up bass going in the background? i hear him on XM 150 all the time, very funny...

so if the first big pot you play you lose, you go home? your playing scared money from the second you sit down...it's not scared money.it's smart money.it's setting limits.top and bottom.if the table is so loose you are gonna lose 13 big bets in the first hand then just set the top and bottom limits higher. buy two racks of chips instead of one. where i play it is pretty tight, i have never had to buy another rack of singles playing in a 3/6 BM game at our local card room.the poster asked how to plug a leak. i don't have that leak and i make money playing so it must work. you can't take chips

problem with that is you cant take cash off the table. Its all well and good to set it aside until you have $155 and see pocket aces, facing 3 bets. what do you do? fold, because to raise would dip into your 'pocket money'?i keep seperate stacks. for example i sit down with $100 at a 3/6 B/M table and keep one stack at $75 (on the right) and one at $25 (on the left). i play with the right stack, the left one just sits there (and grows). everytime the right stack reaches $100 (or more) i move $25 (or more) to the left stack, keeping the left stack at $75.i go in with a goal. when the left stack

i stick to 30x for SNG

sounds like we should move tuesday's game later to maybe 10pm estif that happens we will lose East Coast players to gain West Coast players, it may end up being a wash as far as number of players. personally i work at 8 am every weekday and won't be able to stay up until past 2 am for the tourney (EST).after the superbowl i think the sunday traffic will pick up. also it was mentioned that the sunday time was fine. maybe move the mixed game to tuesday night and the NLHE to sunday?

you guys all claim how great you are, yet the 2 times i play the negreanu open, i walk all over all of you that played. what censored me off is someone has the nerve to start iming me on aol and telling me what a crappy player i am. grow up. i try to help people on this forum with their game, but its obvious that none of you need help. all you wanna do is flame everyone that posts. if anyone wants to play a heads up sit and go on pokerstars, let me know.humility=long term success. instead of reading more poker books try a book called When Anger Hurts it may help you.http://www.amazon.com/exec/

yeah if i'm in late position i'll raise flush and open ended straight draws every time.every time.
