  1. hey, I thought this might be the best way to get ahold of you, just wondering if you are playing again this year? I know its next week and ill be on the rail and I was hoping i could get a chance to meet you and watch you play (im a big fan). If your not gonna play id love to sit for you :club: i got no problem making you and i some cash, and keeping the crown in Canada! I recently just moved down to Vancouver, I played in a couple satellites but ran into some bad luck. The $2700 buyin is a little out of my budget at the moment but i got $500 that im gonna take to the cash tables and try and make a run. So hopefully ill see you there!thank you for your time and best of luck to you!

  2. I recently went on a trip to NY, and was lucky enough to see a Yankees game. (Yankees v Tampa Bay i think?) "We" won 4-3, with 3 runs coming in the 8th.The atmosphere was awesome, and the fact that both teams sets of fans were sitting together(is this usual?) was great, very unlike soccer here in the UK, and that 8th innings was unforgettable. Being able to see you saw a Yankees guy hit a homer was pretty sweet aswell- Nick Swisher i think.All of the things i say here may be incorrect, i am a total noob lol, so please correct me if i am. :)What i am getting at, is being in the UK, baseball aint easy to come by - watching i mean - and i was wondering if it is broadcast on the internet, or even some tv channels over here. It used to be on channel 5 every so often, but i dunno if that is still on. Even the highlights would be cool.Thanks in advance, and sorry for sounding like a total noob!
    www.youtube.com , its way better then channel 5
  3. Well i just got home from the casino. Cashed out for $466(+266) couple intresting hands.... (1/2NL)I was the SB with 10d7d, 2 limpers, i limped, BB raised to $6 everyone calls... flop - 10s8c7s.. i led out for $15, BB calls, fold, fold... turn 4h.. i bet $35, BB shoves for $60 more.. i went into the tank and theres no time button so i had 1 minute to act. So i called and the river came a 7h... he showed 10 8. yay i sucked out huge! I was BB with AcQc, the button made it $10, then the SB raised to $30, I called and so did the button.. flop - Qh9h6h, the SB led out 50$, i thought and thought about it, and decided to throw it in the muck. then the button pushed for $50 more to SB insta called and showed AhAd, button KhQd. turn x river xwell after 2 nights im +$557, the way i see it though just a matter of time before im on the other end of that first hand.

  4. Depends what is around it.
    Well there's Kelowna, that has about & 120,000 1/2 hour away, Kamloops 110,000, & 1 hour away, and then a bunch of of little towns with like 10, 20k. Its called the Sunny Okanagan Valley. Some of the best golf courses in Canada, warm clean lakes, 3 ski hills and some good beer too, If youve ever had Okanagan Springs or Sleemans its brewed here.Vernon is about 4 1/2 hours from Vancouver, which is hosting the 2010 winter Olympics they got about 3 million
  5. Like?
    Angling This is characterized as any acting out of turn. It is considered angling when any player folds or bets out of turn. A player who uses constant angling is known as an "angle shooter". Angling is used to make opponents bet or fold differently to that if they didn't know what the anglers play was. For example, if the angler signals to bet before his turn, other players to the angler's right react by not betting or perhaps even folding. When the round reaches the angler, the angler announces that he or she is not interested in betting after all, or winning a hand due to the opponents fold. *this happen pretty much every round*
  6. yep, pretty much, that tables sick. Probably pretty penny for one of those tables, that would be the bomb for home games. The ones i played have like 42" screen for the board and each player has a 15 inch touch screen, not as cool as those tho. Does anyone know what kinda RNG they use, or software? or are the hands and board determined pf?, i asked the so called pit boss tonite, he said he has no idea.
  7. So I live in a little town, population of maybe 50,000. We recently just got a new Casino and it features the new electronic table games. Its pretty sad to be honest they have about 6 BJ tables and a couple 3 card and texas shootout, 400 slot machines, and two 1/2 nl electronic tables. So first off you get your name on the list, wait for about half hour then throw your money in the machine, you sign in make an account and sit down, theres a little screen infront of you and from there on its pretty much like online.I went there tonite, the casinos been open for a month now, ive been boycotting it because i hate the idea. If Im gonna go to a casino and play live i wanna have cards and chips. So i went there with 3 guys i know and we all walked out +. I cashed for $491(+$291), all the players were sooo nice to eachother and all buddy buddy(canadians), so i fit right in. There was no dealer at the table and there was a lot of angling going on. i was able to make some really good lay downs just by picking things up. Also because its all computerized there were some old guys in there that had some of the most obvious tells, when theyd go to punch in there bet or check. One guy made a mistake and pushed the call button on a big pot and paid a guy off for $100, the guy ended up losing it back to him but there was a couple mistakes that were quit funny, one guy meant to raise 8$ but he pushed $88 with like $112 behind, haha i folded, but the button put him all in, he had middle pair and lost.So i think ill be back there soon. Has anyone else ever played or seen this before?

  8. ugh 1.7 for O'brien? Gillis has to grind those bottom of the lineup guys.
    why sign a guy that spends more time in the box then he does on the ice? and wasnt the only goal he scored all year on his own net? good thing for the canucks they got the best Penalty killers in the league in Burrows and Kesler.
  9. Did you expect us to analyze this hand based on proper plays/strategy?I dont think soRather, you want us to commiserate with you and say "gee that sucks, too bad" and make you feel betterI say, go mess yourself
    no that wasnt my intention, i dont really know what i was thinking, pretty much wasnt. instead of messing myself, im just gonna go to bed, nighty night
  10. My feelings are fine, I'm sure yours are as well. It's not a situation where 'what goes around comes around' applies in the slightest, it's more like 'post a stupid question, expect a stupid answer'.I'll be nice in this answer: You were coolered. It's a totally standard hand, and in no way should it have bothered you for more than 3 seconds, nevermind more than a week. You put your money in with the second nuts and got beat by the nuts. Oh well. It's not discussion worthy, especially months later.As for calling me a dick...there's many friends I have here that can call me that and any other expletive they feel like. I don't know you nor have I ever spoken to you before, therefore you haven't earned that right.
    fair enough, i was out of line calling you a dick. maybe i was giving myself to much credit. Im new here, never been a member of a fourm before. Basically I guess i used the wrong tone, and i agree with you that i shouldnt have made this thread, my bad. please forgive. and forget :club:
