The Nuts

Anyone's pretty much right with this one.You played that as well as you could have in my opinion. Bet half the pot and if he raises, gotta lay it down. If he calls, hope that you grab another K or Q, otherwise you're probably beat.

Time to drop the:Bye-bye, nvrmndtbolcks.

All in. Definitely.Villain betting half the pot gives reasonable odds to chase with a flush draw (I'm not great with odds, but those are reasonable). By raising it with your flush draw/top pair, you gave the impression that you currently have a great hand and don't need odds to justify a call and thus that you don't have a flush draw. The reason there was no bet on the turn was because your raise may have scared the opponent a bit (or at least surprised him). You then improved by nailing the flush on the river and then he bets big when the ace came down.I'm thinking ace-rag. Finish him.

Oooo...Economics discussion! I'm actually feeling giddy now. Really, no joke.Mrdanny:The whole, "Bush doesn't care about the poor" could quite possibly be the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Bush adheres to the trickle down theory for stimulating the economy. What happens is that giving money to the poor really doesn't help the economy.

Flow chart:1) Bush gives solid rebates to rich people2) Rich peopl

I wish I could edit this topic title to, "Bush *was* a good President". Sorry man, brotha just can't cut it anymore. Take solace with the fact that he isn't Jimmy Carter.Only reason he got re-elected is because the opposing candidate was more of a dumbass than he was. Kerry had that election on a silver platter but the brains behind the campaign organizations and planning were just miserable.I'd take Rambo over either of them. Wouldn't even need a military for the war. Just Rambo.

Actually, there's something that you should post somewhere in your blog or at least link to.Blogger's DisclaimerTo most people, this is automatically assumed, but in case trollers need a refresher, I use this.I used to have a politically-driven blog to go with my personal one (I integrated both of them now). Apparently, the entire world seemed to disagree with everything I said and I attracted trollers like moths to a flame for a while until I decided to shut down that blog and occasionally post religious/political schpiels along with other ramblings. After a bit, I found out that wasn't the c
