I didn't say I wasn't ever gonna post again, I just said I was outta here, LOLI don't think I said everyone on here is socially retarded, I said some online players are and that's what leads to such rudeness on some forums, or at least that's what I meant and I'm sure there are a few guys on here who qualify but I don't know and am not saying or thinking of anyone specifically. Some of you guys just like to be an ******* for the fun of it but that doesn't mean you're socially retarded. All I can figure is if you immediately read that posts and thought I was talking about you well you must thin

Oh nevermind, y'all aren't even worth another comment!

Yeah well at least with food cards they have to make some effort to swap it! Did I just get called a fish now too! Holy hell can I get a freaking break around here?And did someone say something about a phallic symbol? Oh no that was fallacy wasn't it, just when I thought this thread was getting interesting.

If I had any fckn idea what you were actually trying to say here I'd think I have just been terribly insulted and called a scumbag who is disconnected from reality which in turn has bred in me antisocial degeneracy. Oh and my character has been corrupted! Holy Fck dude, seriously. I'm about as far from either anti-social or degenerate or corrupt as you can get. Hell I buy food cards for homeless people with my last $20 bucks. I even feel slightly bad when I grossly suck out on someone. I'm generally a nice person but I've spent years working in the corporate and academic world and I've been ba

Damn nice! Wish I'd seen this so I could have railed you! There are some good MTTs on Merge and the gtds have been improving steadily. Do you have the same username?

You totally hit the nail right square on the head! I hate to say it but from watching the hearings on HR2366, if and when legislation on online poker comes out of Washington I'm really scared to see what it's going to look like but legislation good or bad will create a new boom and thousands of news fish flocking to the game. Unfortunately it may be too f'd up for any serious players to make any decent money but lets hope not. There will also be many new TV shows and other things to increase interest. I doubt we'll get back to a 2006 boom level but traffic and interest will definitely increase

Oh and FU!

Okay that's hilarious! My husband watches that, I'll get him to keep an eye out!

Only mentioned Kobe since he's the only who has posted in this thread who has left the country and I wasn't referring to him at all. I want to say that I actually envy and admire the guys who moved out of the country to play, as well as the guys who have successfully transition to live games.. It takes balls to up and move out of the country and making money live isn't easy either. It's the guys who didn't move and who can't seem to make the transition to other means of supporting themselves and wouldn't even attempt to try playing on the sites left to us who I don't have a lot of sympathy fo

Jesus Christ, take things personally much? I don't even think you crossed my mind when I said what I said, odd that you just assumed I was referring to you when I wasn't. I mean you can be a know it all ahole at times but I have no idea how you function in real life, good, bad or otherwise. I actually wasn't thinking of anyone in particular but there are plenty of guys like the example I gave, be they on this forum or not. Functioning in real life is difficult for some people and it's a shame they've been forced to try because of our f'd up government. Rose has a thick skin and can put of wit

Y'all are hilarious! I barely have over 600 post to your almost 3000 Max I doubt I account for 5% of the post on here and you love me and you know it! LOL at DN PMing any of you fools! Poker forums other than the biggest ones have all pretty much died. A lot people attempt to make valid posts but get turned off quickly by some of the same douchebag, know it all bull shit like some of the stuff in this very thread. You have to have a thick skin to stick around on these forums, or just be a masochist, and most people don't have thick enough skins and they quickly leave after being flamed one too

Hell hath no fury!!!

Derailing again....Yes there are plenty of sleazy low lives in poker but I spent years in the corporate world and more years in the academic world and I've seen as much dishonestly and backstabbing and angle shooting in both those worlds as I have in poker. Many people by nature are lazy ass douchebags who had rather cheat to get ahead than work hard or they just have no talent or ability to get ahead any other way. In the poker world these days cheaters get called out and as a rule once that happens it's pretty much over for them, at least most of the time but in the corporate world they usua

I have to say when Jesus screwed everyone all others were suspect from that point forward. I wasn't surprised by anything Howard did but Jesus, OMG! For now I hate to say FCP will remain a bit of a ghost town but if online poker gets properly regulated there will be a massive new boom and FCP will return to glory once more. Skype has hurt forums as well because so many people have formed Skype groups and post hands and ask questions and such there instead of posting on forums as they did before. 2p2 and P5s is still doing fine from what I can tell but even the volume is down there.Playing on M

For The Win...

I saw that Bob and it really sucks just like Newt does. Hopefully Obama can beat Newt (if he gets the nomination) since Newt's skeletons are plentiful and he's married to the woman he was cheating on his 2nd wife (who I believe he cheated on his first wife with while she had cancer) with the woman who would be first lady if he were elected. I don't think when it comes right down to it Americans want a slut for 1st lady or someone like Newt for president. Just sad to see he has so much power and money behind him. This is the land of big money rules.

Merge FTW! Unless you're actually good at poker, if so just say on Bodog! :-)

Bob why does this guy seem to have so much pull? I mean Caesars and MGM are the biggest casino chains and they not only are all for online poker they're even preparing for legislation by partnering with existing online sites. So how does this guy who runs a much smaller enterprise pull so much weight?

I see his point about protecting the fish, errr I mean net depositing players but I think they missed a big issue and that's that most recreational players love to have cute usernames and cute avatars. They also love to play against big name players, be they pro or just popular online players. Look at how fast a table will fill up if Daniel sits down at a low stakes game. These guys are perfectly aware that Daniel can out play them but they love being able to say they played with him. If they're lucky enough to get to a table with a pro in an MTT and get even luckier to knock that pro out it m

Have any of you seen the Bodog updates? Players are now anonymous, they only have a random or seat number assigned to them so you have no idea who you are playing. Everything else seems like an improvement but this is just ridiculous. I was actually thinking of putting some money on there in a couple of weeks, oh well!

That's really good, I think 3rd is the best I've done in that one. The $3 super is harder than the $1 super because the rebuys last an hour in the $3 but only 30 minutes in the $1 one. I gave up on the $3 one but I still play the $1 one some. Good luck, TID. The $1r frenzy is great also! I've run so bad this month I've had to drop back to lower stakes before I go broke. I will say while it will never be as good as PokerStars games wise Merge has really improved.

IDK but according to WPT the ME was on this same day and at the Hard Rock, Hollywood. I'm just guess that was it.

Assuming it was this...WPT Regional Series: FloridaNov 11 - 14, 2011Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and CasinoHollywood, FloridaI got an email about the regional events and it said they don't carry a WPT championship title like the other events. Great for people in Florida cause there are a bunch coming up at various locations. Looks like poor Mississippi got the shaft for Florida, but hey where had you rather go.

Did the standard Sunday grind on the Merge. Mostly blah! Won a seat from last month to the low limit Tourney King game, bombed it, won a seat to the High Roller, bombed the High Roller, played the 100K, bombed the 100K. FT'd the $11r $2.5K finished in 2nd after my AA hit a set on a flop of 2A3 rainbow - all in on the flop with the guy 2nd in chips and he hits a str8 with his 4, brutal but finished 10 hours of playing with a $349 profit for the day so I guess it could of been worse.
