I usually play strictly hold em, but have been teaching myself PLO8 for the last couple of weeks. I'll usually have two HE tables going and one PLO8 table. I play low stakes, either $25 or $50, just trying to get a feel for the game. Well yesterday I was playing and the player to my left min raised every pot, and when he was reraised, would usually re-reraise, and was up quite a bit after getting in with some inferior hands. My understanding of the game is that you should be sure you have the nuts before raising or calling any bets. I picked up A A 2 4 and limped in, and as predicted

insert Van Der Sloot joke here...

I agree, and I don't know why either

Over 40...Gina Gershon Will there ever be a movie better than Bound?

I'll show you, I can come up with much worse jokes

Die Hard has always been a favorite of mine. My friends hated me when I smoked in college because I would always buy the soft pack so that I could look lik McClain.

Red Dawn was awesome as well. Fryer, are you getting nervous about getting close to 5k posts?

I have to make sure two others get their props, Lucas and Vision Quest

I really am blind, so this is how I always play. Sometimes I'll have my dog tell me what my cards are, but I can only do this online, in the casino they think he is giving me advice.

My favorite 80's movie would have to be Goonies. The redhead was so freaking hot. Your favorite 80's movie?

it's not hard to find one on Bodog. I started playing HU on accident. I had two tables going on was opening a third, and the next thing I now I'm in a HU SNG.

I second that emotion

pocketfives.com is pretty good as well. If I'm looking for entertainment, I come here. If I'm looking for strategy I go to 2+2If I'm looking for general info I go to pocketfives

Ah the Admiral, many a night dank has spent there. I'm in Chicago, I'll PM you as we get closer, I'm always looking for a tourny. I play with a bunch of iron workers, and depending on how many people you are trying to get, could probably bring 7-10 people, some very good, some awful.

Celebrity Poker is great. I loved the episode with the blonde chick from the West Wing, her fun bags made my day.

Yeah, thanks for posting this. I didn't realize that it was old, but still worth the read. One of these days my cheap ass will have to pony up for Insider.

wow, you are cool.

Cool, the chat was today. It's weird because you could see Brunson's chat yesterday for free, maybe they were just giving us peons a taste of what the insiders get.

Anyone out there pay to be an Insider? I ask because I went to look at the Phil Gordon chat today, and couldn't see it since I never subscribed. I thought maybe someone could post it on here, if it isn't too long.

cool, thanks. I was worried that I wouldn't get a response when I saw that basketball had hijacked the thread.

This question may have been answered a hundred times, so I thought I would ask it here rather than starting a new topic. I know all about the book about Beal playing the big game, and I read the articles in Card Player about the proposed 40 million, heads up freeze-outs with Beal against the corporation, but I don't know if that game ever took place? This thread reminded me of it, but I haven't seen anything else in Card Player about it, and haven't heard much about it lately.

Am I an idiot for not realizing this kid is actually 29 years old until right now? Also, lay off MTV guys, I happen to be a Real World junkie.

I'm almost ashamed to admit it, but I love this show. My girlfriend thinks that this is how I was when I was a kid. When life gives me lemons, I make beef stew.

that drives me nuts. I heard that some people have a program that allows them to see your cards, so some people may have an unfair advantage, but it's not rigged.

One of a Kind was great,worth reading since it was originally supposed to be his memoirs, but he died before it was finished. And whoever said he was awful at cash games is an idiot.
