  1. obviously you don't remember Varnoki I think it's Raymer AINEC... if it was "who is most likely to win another NL event" then it would probably be Hatchem, butI think GR probably has the most complete game, and could win a bracelet in a small field Studhi/lo tournament or something
    Nope, never saw him play at all or looked at his stats. That's why I put him at the end and not with gold yang and moneymaker. It wouldn't be fair for me to throw him in that category if I don't have the slightest clue of the strength of his game.
  2. [x] Way off paceGetting the flu and having a significant plumbing problem in my house are both giant problems. I thought I'd put in a ton of hands last night cause my GF is out of town, but instead I just watched the Bulls game and went to sleep early...like, I had ZERO motivation to play poker yesterday. Now today, instead of my all day grind, I have to fix the plumbing. Not in buyout territory yet but another setback and I may have to consider it.
    But at least you saw them win, hasn't been happening much lately. I'm going to the game tonight, maybe they'll make it two in a row but I think I'd rather stay home and watch the cavs celtics game. Oh well.

    Nice bluff with the best hand. kq.
  5. i just turned 21 like a month ago. My buddy I was with has a shit fake ID from Michigan. But to be honest, we were never carded once playing poker, blackjack, or in the bar! THe only tiem I ever showed my ID was when I was checking in/out from the hotel. Not gettign carded at the bar was probably rare, though. Our initial waitress (the only one that matters when it comes to carding) was new and nervous. However, my cousins came, 21 and 18, and neither of them got carded I dont think when I bought them drinks (but they are girls, so who knows).But that rule, when I first heard it I didnt beleive the dealer. I went to ask the pit boss and stuff LOL. So dumb.
    I thought you only had to be 18 to play there. When I lived in Orlando I played at the Tampa Hard Rock a lot and once at the Hollywood all before I was 21. Something about Indian territory?
  6. I wonder if they would try the drinking age next?
    MADD will never let this happen.When I lived in Orlando we used to drive to Tampa to play at the hard rock casino, it was 18 and up and i started going when i was 19, never even got carded. However, they didn't serve free alcohol and they did ID you for that. I'll agree with make them wait. It wouldn't be the end of the world if they changed it but dammit it took forever to turn 21 and a few days after my 21st I drove 36 straight hours with a friend to Vegas and it was well worth the wait!
  7. This is just capitalism at it's finest. No one can say how much they deserve to make, that's for supply and demand to decide. If people get fed up with it, then they have the choice not to buy in. If the number of participants decreases, then the income will decrease, as well as the sponsorship. Maybe then they'll lower the entry fee. But for now it looks like a great business and they have no reason to lower the entry fee.One more thing, if i did the math right, a 585 entry fee for a live 10k buy in tournament is very low already.

  8. It's the first hand of a deep stacked tournament. In my opinion, it's worth a call. You have no idea how this guy plays and there are plenty of hands you can beat. So two things can happen with a call, either you lose, but gain a lot of info on him, or you win and gain a lot of info on him. I think losing the extra 400 in a deep stacked tournament is worth the information, especially when you add in the chance that you may have the best hand.
