  1. i will probably try and play in some of the $300 or $500 ones that fall on the weekends, plus maybe a few of the second chance tournaments they have at night.
  2. theone,did you go to UT? I graduated from there in 2003...cant wait for the season...some friends and i are heading out to the game at Cal...should be pretty intense
  3. http://www.pokerpages.com/tournament/weekl...ournSearch.y=13here is the link off of pokerpages.comi am not sure if this is all of them....there may be more daily rebuy tournaments that arent listed...usually the grand and horseshoe have pretty decent tournaments on the weekend. you may just want to check the individual websites to make sure
  4. yea...i was kicking myself after the hand that I didnt pay more attention to the button's stack size....this was a $100 buy-in with $100 rebuys (for first 2 hours) at a country club that my buddy is a member of. It was the first time I had played in it, and didnt know a soul at the table. I think there ended up being around 21 players, and some of these guys were just terrible, buying in a few times after busting again and again. So there was a pretty good prize pool (they normally pay top 3 or 4).and i was extrememly card dead for the first hour or so, and any time i picked up a hand and r
  5. thanks...that is what i thought...just making sure.i ended up calling, and the other guy called. flop comes 10c7c2d i push all in, and he calls with AcJc and gets the flush on the river.
  6. what is the rule about re-reraising after a player is all in (whose all in raise is less than the initial raise):situation (tournament): 3 players limp into pot for $1,000, I raise to $4,000 from big blind w/ QQ. 1st limper folds, second limper calls my raise, third limper (button) re-reraises all in and had around $4,500...so it is an additional $1,500 to me. Would I be allowed to re-raise all in (to get the other player to possibly fold), or do I simply have to call the $1,500?
  7. by no means do i think he could "make it on the pga tour", but it is a real possibility he could qualify for a PGA event through local qualifiers. Normally you just need a low enough official handicap, and fork over maybe $1,000 for a one day shot at a few spots, usually at a pretty lame course (although you normally have to shoot a 66 or 65 to have a chance). Its a super long shot, but by no means impossible.
  8. how come they would stop play for the night with 11 minutes left in level 15 (per Cardplayer.com). Why not just play out the level and start level 16 first thing tomorrow? is this normal?
  9. I recommend to anyone to read this debate between Sam Harris (author of the End of Faith and Letters to a Christian Nation)- an athiest, and Andrew Sullivan. It is great. It has maybe 5 or six responses from each, going back to when the debate began back in january.this link should go to the beginning of the debate and have all the responses:http://www.beliefnet.com/story/209/story_20904_1.html
  10. right after i type that I get KK in big blind....cutoff raises....i reraise...he puts me all in, I call....he has 44...spikes a 4 on the flop...i am out
  11. i have been sitting around $3,000 - 3,500 for a while .... cant get anything going....few times i have had big hands i cant get any action. been pretty boring so far.
  12. The games are pretty easy. I normally play at Horseshoe because I like their cardroom better, but honestly, pretty much anywhere the games are easy (at least the limits i play, which are sometimes 4-8 limit and occasionally 10-20, and 1-2 NL with the occasional 2-5 NL.I would imagine it is about like everywhere. I cant speak to the higer limits, however.
  13. any links to his posts on 2+2, or at least what exactly i should search for (if you have a specific post/article he wrote in mind)
  14. i try and play regularly down in Tunica (usually either 1-2 NL or 4-8 limit) and I bet the 4-8 game i normally in is similar to your 3-6 game. This game is really easy, especially on the weekends. Normally you have anywhere from 4+ to every flop so you are obviously going to get you share of retarded suckouts....but overall i find it is an easy game to beat as long as you stay patient, even when you are running bad, and just jam pots when you have big hands. since most of the time there are old men and women in the game who just like to sit and call and draw to anything, as long as you keep
  15. i would definitely fly into Memphis...and from the airport, it is a little over 20 miles to the casinos. Cab couldnt be that much...I would possibly call Grand or Gold Strike (wherever you may stay) and see if they do shuttles.
  16. oh...my bad. i havent been there in a few years, so i am not sure how the games are nowadays.

  18. pong...you go to UTK right now? i graduated from there in 2003, and lived on knoxville for a year after that.we used to go to Caesars Indiana every now and again....it is only about 250 miles from Knoxville...i think that is the closest card room....it has a pretty good variety of games: here is a linkhttp://www.harrahs.com/casinos/caesars-ind...ker-detail.html
  19. might try and play in one (or both) of the $500 events that take place on two different Saturdays....and probably at least one of the second chance tournaments.As far as ID checking, lately it hasnt been too bad. I have been playing the past few weeks and havent seen anyone get carded, at least not to play poker. there is a small chance they may card you if you start ordering drinks, but even that is pretty rare. Also a small chance you get carded at the door...but again, it has been a while since that has happened.
  20. i havent really been keeping up or played online since all that legislation stuff...are American players having any trouble depositing or withdrawing money from any of the sites listed above??
  21. A few questions re: Kill Bill Vol. I & II:1. In the Oren Ishii's cartoon section, while she is still under the bed there is that one guy with the long hair and sword....is this supposed to be Bill when he was younger? just wondering because it shows a ring he is wearing and the sword (i think) had an Hotori Hanzo design on it.2. When Bill goes to Buds trailer and tells him Beatrix is alive and going to kill him, hell tells bud she has a Hotori Hanzo sword. Bud then says something to the degree of : "Hotori gave a blood oath that he wouldnt ever make a sword...he really must keep grudge
  22. I will probably try and play in the second chance tournaments they will be having at night (i think they are $175 + 25...no rebuys or addons). I am not sure I will be able to play in many other events bc of work.
