Nobody likes you :cry:

I am still awaiting notice of how many clubs I regularly passed while driving to a game >:[ (lol)Anyways, yea, that is a cool idea and everything, I will say this though, if you are charging "membership fees" (even if sake for legal issues), you should be sure to have a decent atmosphere. I also dare say regular security.Other than that, good luck if its in my area, I will definately check it out upon completion! Where is it at exactly in OH

I am from NE Ohio and have been looking for cardrooms around forever.Where the hell was I when all these popped up?!If it's membership only, etc. How do you go about joining, it would be great to drive < 3 hours to play a decent game. Especially from Cleveland.PS. To OP and others that play around OH, What limits/games are played, or do you wish to offer? Feel free to PM me if you wish.

Yeah, but the other person doesn't always flop a full house!That just may have been his point.

end thread.

I figured that I would just bump this post for all of you.Merry Christmas Smash

i dont get itBasically everyone agrees that your existance is much less important than a fictional pokemon's existance (in card form)Better?

Way to start a sweet topic. Charizard > zedd2005 imho.

sw.

OP, that was HILARIOUS. Nice story!

Figured I would bump this for good reason, I am heading out tomorrow morning. If any of you run into this, PM me for contact info, we can meet up.I also rented out a suite in casino on Wednesday for people that want to come by and party, I have some friends coming up and I decided to give a nice Christmas gift to them. It's a deluxe, and by floor plans it looks to be a little bigger than two rooms. Good deal if you ask me :)Hopefully I will run into somebody there! GL all on my off time. PS. If you see this late, I will be in the poker room with a blue track jacket or green hoodie. I will prob

No problem.You learned a good lesson. Never listen to your friends, they are all idiots.

Lyle or Steven is that you?! :-) Anyways, I am trying my hardest not to be an extremist here. I understand that profit is necessary. Your posts are really making it to look as if the WPT is a volunteer network of personalities all trying their hardest to bring poker to the people. You make money sir. The least you could do is allow players to have a legitimate shot to use their skill to win more money.

Everybody antes, including blinds.

That would cost them more money than they are willing to spend sir.

Though your point is well-stated, I must say simply that it's easy to criticize from the sidelines. Unless you're behind those cameras, editing the footage, working deals with television networks, and overseeing these massive tournaments, it's difficult to know why they do what they do. There are reasons for all of the decisions...As poker grows, WPT does its best to grow along with it. However, there are limitations in the tv business that must be taken into consideration. Sorry that I can't go into details, but suffice it to say that WPT cares a great deal about poker, especially the pla

Well, although your posts make you sound like an idiot, I have to agree.It's been well documented that the WPT final table is a complete joke, but I never took a REAL look at it until the 5 Diamond Classic. The blinds heads up were 300,000/600,000 with 50,000 ante. At one point the final two (Not to ruin the results for anybody) each had near 8.5 million in chips. That is 1,000,000 every two hands. I remind you the pay difference is 1,000,000 dollars! Don't you think that with a name like the World Poker Tour, they would endorse poker actually be played? It will be seen on TV that ANY two car

This was sooo funny omg. worth the wait easily....a 6! finally a good beat! YES BILL FILLMAFF IS THE GREATEST I also waited anxiously for something I had never heard of before? I'm confused. :?He's talking about the "taking forever to load".Right-o, I was distracted by the 12 year old sound of it all. Ah well, better luck next time.

That really might have been the best BF yet. I haven't laughed that hard since the first one. The mop + pregnant quote is an instant classic.

As is the theme with my B&M Posts, I am just seeing if anybody will be around Casino Windsor from the 18th-21st. I am from Ohio and finishing up finals here, needed a nice break. I will probably be staying in house with a hooked up room, but also might rent a dorm or something. If anybody wants to hang around and hand away money to idiots, post!PM for info if you want to contact or something.

Have you ever watched Hoyt play? I hate to be a jerk here, but the guy makes insane bets with really bad hands. He forces people to make good calls. I believe it was in Pokerstar's WPT event where Hanson, DN, and Hoyt were the final three. DN had like 200k and was on BB with Ad3d (I think), with blinds at like 6k-12k, Hoyt made it 190k or so with 97os. His thoughts of "Well he can only call me here with a huge hand, and if it isn't a pair, I still have live cards so I am probably 3-2 at worst."It isn't a "bad' strategy, he is just all preflop aggression, usually not the greatest sign of a prof

I registered, unfortunately I just got out of the hospital yesterday, so I do not know if I will be able to go if I am one of the selected ones. Being deathly ill had its consequences on your social life

Considering that most of your scoop cards are out and it appears that a better low is drawing as well, you really must have decided to bust out ASAP. Grats on winning but pokerstars is the only place you will ever win like that. Oh yeah, and nice choice on games, just play cash next time, +++++EV.
