I started making my 9 y/o cut the grass with me a few weeks ago. The other day I got the yard started and bent the hell out of the blade. I asked him if he prayed for me to do that. He smiled and thought the coast was clear. That is until I pulled back in the d/w with a shiney new one. He was pissed.that is all

Did you play in the Saturday 40$ tourney?

I havn't seen a thread about NASCAR around here in a while. I enjoy watching it from time to time and have even gone to a few races.I'm curious about a few things.Who likes NASCAR, if so who do you like?What races have you been to?I like DEI. When I first got into NASCAR about 5 years ago I didn't want to like DEI because I'm someone that usually likes to root for the underdogs. I thought as popular as Jr was he must be the best. So I rooted for Ryan Newman. That year he won the pole for about every race and won 6 races, while jr didn't do so well.After learning how humble he was and everythin

Actually, I think you're supposed to PM Mr. DNA for the PW now.

Sam, What track is that at?Will that fella Daniel Negreanu play?

That's correct. He told me he was the TD at The Gold Strike in the metropolis known as Tunica.

I think that's also a pretty good point. If he had you preflop then wouldn't he have raised if he was Mr. Loose?

Yes sir, and the night before with 600+ I made it to 17ish.I've also won 7 or 8 with 125-500+ people. Came in 2nd in one with 1900ish people. So I doubt I'm as dumb as you may think I am :)One of my best qualities (IMHO) is that I have a lot to leaarn. Or maybe it's that I'm unorthidox (I'm pretty sure I butchered the spelling of that):)But I can also donk em off with the best of em.

I'm trying to figure some of this out. I show if it was 6-7 or 5-7 then the 88 has about a 49% chance to win it. If that's correct then he should definetly push, right?

If you call and it gets heads up and he has something like 5-7 then you're almost a coin flip. I think you would have like 13 outs8,8,6,6,6,4,4,4,4,9,9,9,9......I'm on pain meds so I could be missing something else. But if he's loose I'd push.

I would have raised preflop no matter how loose that fella was. Besides getting a set this is about the best flop you could have. Since you're in last position and you bet 700, you get a call and a push I would think you're behind. Was there a flush draw out there?

thx - Not that it makes a difference. But there weren't any antes. You would think there would be and I wish there was. In B&M tourneys they always have em.

Makes sense pushing preflop. I guess if he had anything less than AA, KK, or a set I still have 6 outs. Unless he had something like A7 (I wouldn't call that much if I was him but I'm tight). Then I'd be pretty much down to 3 outs. BTW - I only play on FCP and I know how to check the current hand or previous hand history. But is there a way that it's automatically stored on your comp or anything?Oh ya ....thanks for the advice. Some simple things apparently escape me. I should have thought more about what I was going to do if I totally missed after the flop. If I didn't push preflop should I h

Take a week or so off. I was running bad. Then I traded my laptop for a gun (Yes I'm serious. It's a sweet Springfield M1a SOCOM 16).Then I bought another lappy and have a lil more patience. It really helps.

As long as they're not all playing in the same SNG

512 people tourney down to 7. I have a lil more than avg with 110k.Blinds are 8k - 16k chip leader (about 320k) limps UTG folds to me I have AKd and I raise to 37500. folds to CL who calls.Flop is 2-5-7 with 1 diamond. He checks and I bet 40k. He raises me all in.I start cussing myself knowing I'm pot committed. I had only played about 50 hands with the person. But I had a gut feeling he had me dominated when he raised me knowing he I would be pot committed.I had about 17k left and folded. No doubt the dumbest move I made all night. So I should have called unless I put him on AA,KK, or a set r

In Tunica about the lowest limits are 5-2500. So you can play double up catch up for a while.

Double up catch up.I bet 5 lost10 lost20 lost 40 lost80 lost160 lost 320 lost 640 WON!!!Everyone was all excited and I was like "I won 5$"I'm pretty sure that was the last time I tried it.One other thing you talked about getting 3-2 with BJ. What happens if you get a decent bet up there and you get AA or 88? You split em cause you're supposed to. Then the BJ gods slap the crap out of you for playing a st00pid system and lose both hands.I'm glad your fiance was cool about it.

This was also discussed on 2+2 and someone said they knew it was Thomas Keller. I think someone else on 2+2 said it was basically confirmed on "The Circuit".

correct...I think it was in the diner. When he said "I've been working out. I'm buff Jerry"

I don't know if it's the same one. But in 2003 Thor Hansen was the CL with about 20 left and was out 2 hands later. He lost the 1st one to Amir Vahedi. Vahidi had Q8d with 2 diamonds on the flop. Thor had AKos and went all in. An 8 hit on the river.The next hand he had KK vs AJ (Farha) they went all in preflop and an ace came on the flop.Sorry for going all over it again. I didn't see someone else had said the same thing.

I don't know how long he's been playing the highest cash games. But I saw him in Tunica 3 years ago in 100-200 PLO spanking DevilFish and everyone else.Honestly I didn't know who he was at the time. Fish was bitching about this and that and DB just said "David but you are the devilfish". "You are the champion". Then a few months later I saw him on a WPT final table, I think that's the one he won. But he was very impressive. He had more gray chips (5k) than I usually have in red(5).

Tool 10,000 days

I might play in an event or two there as well. Next time I'm down there I'll see if I can find a schedule. Or try 1-800-946-4946. Ask for the poker room and they should help ya out.

I honestly don't know much about the lawsuit at all. But I remember you were kind of upset at the WPT for using your likeness in a way you didn't approve. I believe you said you spoke with them and they changed it. From then on I agreed with you but after reading the chat with PG one thing sticks out, even though you trust the powers that be at the WPT what if you signed the release and a couple years down the road the WPT people sold out to someone that wasn't as considerate to your feelings?If the release allows them to use your likeness forever (I don't know that it does, but I'll assume so
