that may be true, but the anti-cubs fans are also saying that most cubs fans don't know anything about sports, and are there just for the party atmosphere. yeah we shouldnt generalize that we are the most knowledgeable fans (and i dont btw), but they shouldnt generalize that we all their just for the party. just because you don't know everyone on the rosters name, doesnt make you less of a fan. if the cubs lose, ill be rooting wholeheartedly for the padres (i love the maddog). Do i know everyone on their team, no, i know about 10 of them. But i will root for them and be a fan. I won't root for

Hi I know this is where all the old timers come and dont really take kind to newcomers but just wanted to wish you and your family luck and well wishes. My join date and post count may be low but I have been at FCP since its roots almost, just never created an account. (as a test - i was here to see the best come and go - smash, marionsauce, dutch, mexico, teneight, FWP BEFORE he got banned for a year, Jayson Weber, etc). So though you may not know me by name ive been reading yours and many others for going about 3 years now so I just wish your family all the best.

Honestly I agree with some of what you say, and I haven't been here long enough to know your reputation as being a guy with no credibility. But you have to take into consideration that though he may sit with 1million at the table, that is definitely not the buy-in. Also, he played 1k/2k for about a week, and that was during the WSOP. Now that he is back home, he most assuredly will be playing his typical 300/600 games. At these stakes, the buy in is not 1 million that you say, but 60,000. So if he does have a bankroll of 10 million. That is about 165 buy ins. Yes it is not 200 or 300 buy ins,

correct me if i am wrong but is she the one with david benyamine? If so that give hope to all us fat guys. Except of course for the fact that I am not filthy rich nor do i have brilliant poker mind. Ok so it's little hope, but hope none the less.

ty sir....i hope to have an absolute blast, hopefully the poker gods will let me. ::crosses finger:: and to the rest, thanks again for the suggestions. to the gent that mentioned the luxor arcade, ty but i looked at a vegas map and its really much further from the center of the strip, ty though for the heads up.

hey all thanks for all the help. except for the smell, flamingo seems to have good reviews so i may go with that. i looked at the IP but since im with my kids, the whole spending little time in the room thing may not be true for me. i wont be out at night partying and drinking it up because the fam will be with me. so i may be around the hotel more often than most. so i figure flamingo, because of its pool may be best bet. any more suggestions will only help me so keep em coming if you guys got em. thanks!

i actually looked at all of the sahara types, and cheap types but those are all off the strip. my kids will be with me so i want to be on the strip because i dont want them walking too far or having to take taxis or a bus. so sahara is a no go. cheap, but on the strip im looking for. anyone with any experience with the flamingo? or luxor?

Hey all going to vegas in a bit. Looking to stay on the strip. So far the cheapest ive seen is Imperial Palace. Next cheapest is either flamingo or luxor. Finally i'm looking at either monte carlo or planet hollywood, but on my budget those are the least likely. Ive looked at all the others (mgm, venetian, paris, and frankly are too much. So i just need help choosing between the 5 i mentioned) I heard imperial palace is a total junkland so i am leaning toward flamingo or luxor. Anyone have any suggestions/ experience between the two? I will be with my kids so ive heard flamingo has an awesome

posted this in the official event thread for this tourny but for the sake of conversation will post it again here. anyone catch all these updates? http://news.pokerpages.com/index.php?optio...iew&id=2323mentions scotty and eli made some sort of undisclosed deal. Also mentions eli got 10-1 odds on him not winning a bracelet from barry. I'm guessing the deal may have been something along the lines of "hey scotty i'll shave some money off the top of my winnings from the tournament and barry if you let me win." I know some naive people may say the bracelet may mean more to these guys, but let'

anyone know what the maximum you can request with bodog is, and does it come in cash using western union? i live in a shady area and would feel uncomfortable leaving a currency exchange with a couple thousand in cash in my hand? i normally do check but my last one was requested in april and i still haven't gotten it yet. any help would be appreciated. thanks!

to some of you maybe its huge, to others peanuts, but it was about 3000 ish. So i lost 1500 of my own since it was just two of us

nvm..its not free, was able to do a search and learned how to do a screen shot instead. it will have to do. thanks for the tips anyways

ty...is it free do you know?

I just lost the biggest pot of my life 5 minutes ago. Anyone know how to copy bodog hand history so that I can save it. It was pretty big, for me anyways so I wanted to save it on my computer. any help?

^ quite possibly the best sig on FCP, makes me laugh every time

this is not a flame, so if you reply back with a jerky comment, relax I am not making fun of you. I think you were going for "shwing!" but did anyone else read that as "swa-ching." I'm asian so it made me laugh b/c I can picture my fobby as$ dad trying to be hip and saying it how you wrote it.

This hardly qualifies as poker, so I'll keep it in general. If you're one of those who hate gossip type things then stay away, I warn you now. Just finished watching the show and did anyone notice how many unnecessary references evelyn ng made to daniel. For example she mentioned "daniel's favorite hand, daniel says not to wear sunglasses," and one other daniel reference near the end. Just makes me wonder if she is still madly in love with the guy. I know many will flame me and say who cares about their private lives but I always found the real lives of "celebrities" fascinating. I guess they

on a side not, I'm gonna be in vegas during the main event of the mirage poker showdown. anyone know what the rules are for spectators? it would be nice to see phil ivey, or at the very least someone like huck seed, or cunningham. do they allow railers into the tourney area, because i can't exactly be buying in the 10k enter?

oh ok, thanks

37K chop? was there 3 of them, or 4 of them? did they all get the same ish and just play for what was left?

Did a search but couldn't find anything so I thought I'd mention Jared Hamby (wacokid) won another WPT prelim event this past weekend. I don't know the guy so if you see this, I'm not stalking you. At least not yet. Anyways, was just searching cardplayer and ran across the mirage poker showdown results. Man this guy has been on a sick sick run. here's the link: http://www.cardplayer.com/tournaments/results/7533. If it has been posted, then sorry, and feel free to delete or ignore.

ty cobalt. anyone get one withine the past couple days, and if so when did you request?

Hey anyone else request a bodog check on or before April 10 and still not get it yet? I requested mine on the 10th and haven't gotten it. Ive called them and they said some people around the same date range of mine (first two weeks of april) have already gotten their checks. I was just wondering if anyone is still waiting, or if I just got bad luck and they are taking longer for me than everyone else. I don't know if you guys remember but I made a thread a little ago asking for vegas help. Since my trip is soon, just wondering if this is gonna get in on time. If you guys have gotten your check
