The Hideout

[grocery_mony 8]

Sry Grocery... at least you were honest. Most of my friends always seem to 'break about even".

LOL. I have been to Vegas about 12 times and came out even twice and slightly ahead once. All other times have been various degrees of fail ranging from losing half my money to times where I cant afford to eat at the airport on my way out of town. I would be doing much better if I just stuck to poker but poker almost feels like work when in Vegas these days so who needs that.

hey me too...i missed both of ours...that makes me double fail right? i don't know if mine counts though since i technically took a "break" for about a 2-years or soanyways, in other news, i've had this strong desire lately to make/build/create something, so recently i decided i was gonna build my own poker table. fun fact, i have pretty much zero woodworking experience (insert lame joke equating whacking it to woodworking here), and pretty much no tools for the job. so, i bought a bunch of tools, got some plywood, and drew up my specs. i started it all up on wednesday, but thanks to working full time and going to school full time, i have had little time to actually complete it, which is cool, because the cupholders i ordered are taking for-f'ing-ever to get here. i should have it done by this coming wednesday, so i'll post some pics. thus far i'm pretty proud of my work. it isn't superfantasticawesome or anything, but considering my severe lack of skill in the building stuff department, its pretty sweet.

look forward to seeing this...!

people at low limits are fun...they really really arethis hand, and the chat after made my night...this is a $3 sng, about 6 hands in, 10/20 blindsim in the SB with 6 7 not horrible by any means, but not superfantastic eitherutg raises to 50, 3 callers in front of me, so of course i make the call...i mean, why wouldn't i wanna see a flop 5-handed with suited connectors right?anyways, flop comes 8 5 J i check, not wanting to bet at a draw with 4 people to act behind me, but i think i probably should have...anyways, original raiser bets 50 into a 270 pot, everyone folds around to me...15-outer? yeah i'm calling thatturn 4 i like iti check...suddenly utg really really really likes her hand, and bets out 700...wtf? idk...only thing i can put her on that makes sense to bet the way she did is 44 for a turned set, or 67 like me, because i just don't see making a small bet on the flop and then going apeshit on the turn with a heart drawi push for another 680, she calls, shows AA and is left with a solid stack of 180river 2 or something just as irrelevant, i dont really remember because this is when the real fun stuff started...her: wow, really?her: nice play fishme: thanks for letting me catch up there, it was awesome of youher: yeah really nice call her: fishme: yeah i shoulda folded my 15-outer to your horribly undersized flop bet huh? damn im terribadher: i think its pretty obvious to everyone else that i had a hand thereher: everyone but the fish foldsme: so you're saying you wanna make out with me?some random guy: lol if she doesn't i dome: soldher: its ok, just keep playing badme: sorry, i gotta take a break to make out with that guysome random guy: <-- is femaleme: even better, let's do thisher: how am i supposed to beat bad players like you?her: fishsome other guy: by the power of greyskull?me: you can't, i'm unstoppablei ended up busting in 2nd...just got bitchslapped by the deck heads up, started with 3:1 chip lead, but nothing held up when i was ahead (AQ lost to A7, 66 lost to 89), and when i got my money in a little bit behind (A8 vs 77) i couldn't hit. oh well, not like i really care about a $3 sng, plus it was fun and entertaining

worst world series celebration ever. hey, lets kinda act like we almost give a shit that we won it all, jump around like a bunch of jackwagons, and not even dog pile like real men.i was disappointed, i expected somethin a little more flashy from the gayest city on earth.and before you ask, no i'm not a rangers fan or a giants hater, that celebration just failed.

not to sound like a dick, but YOU DON'T COUNT!!!!i was moreso referring to the old school posters like c-dub, golden, gk, ricker, pckt10s, and all that. everyone's disappearance pretty much makes me the most tenured poster left in this thread...and yet i'm #22 on the post count for this threadedit: also, i found the greatest thread EVER!!!man, not having a job sure was...boring...but awesome...but made me poor

back to back straight flushes just now....

[rsmbox 1]

here's to the other side of the coin (me)home game just got over with, i was stuck in for 3 buy-ins, and was working my way back up when this hand happened...money is all in on the flop (i bet it, got raised, moved all in, got called)me: AQ board: Q 2 2 him: Q J turn: 4 now the fun part...in our game we have this thing where if you fold preflop you can make a "side-pot" bet with anyone else who folds, which is a coin flip on the hand for one small blind. the two guys in the side pot decide to show us that both had folded J6off, neither of which was the J so i'm pretty excited, i can't lose, and i gotta dodge a 3-outer for a chopriver: 2 we split the small blind, cause i run badgrats on the hands though, hopefully you got paid off

hai guyz.Big things going on in hankworld.When my meemaw died about 3 1/2 years ago I inherited a share in a commercial property. Well, it finally sold and I got my cut. So I am now all but debt free. I'm going to celebrate my new situation by heading to Vegas March 3-6. Thought about going for the start of the NCAA tourney but it's expensive as hell so to screw that. Anyone else free that weekend? Anyone ever stay at MGM? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

i stayed at the MGM a few times mid decade and it was more than adequate. The rooms are just fine and the casino is pretty good. ive been back just to the casino and it is a little worn these days but better than alot. Im gonna give Vegas a rest for awhile myself. They are deffinately doing better now and the offers i used to get have dried up.

I've played there a few times, just was more curious about the rooms. What about the Trop, anyone stayed there since they dumped a ton of money renovating?
