  1. I've just read Jennifer Harman's SS2 chapter on limit hold'em and it's very strong. I'm going to give it another look with a highlighter at the ready, after some sleep, and then I'll see if there's some noticeable difference in my limit game.

    I'm pretty sure they meant seem healthier. Phillip Morris has been buying up "family friendly" companies like Kraft and Nabisco in a brand-retooling effort for a few years now.Oh. I sent you an email about this Canadian wonderstuff after reading about your Tunica food nightmare. (Canadian vegetarian here.) I can't stress the product enough without feeling a little embarrassed so I'll just put it out there.http://www.greensplus.com/Here's the ingredient list to whet your interest:NON-GMO1 Soy Lecithin 2,339mgOrganic Hawaiian Spirulina Pacifica 1,356mgOrganic High Pectin Apple Fiber 1,350mgB

    I've just read the new Journal entry. I'm disappointed to learn that Daniel has accepted to speak to Kraft executives, giving these the benefit of his hard-won insights. In the past Daniel Negreanu has written of how he loathes cigarette smoke and yet here he is displaying publicly his consent for Phillip Morris, Kraft's parent company.

  4. Chip protector, nada. But card-protector? Sure! I like to use this little guy to cover my hole-cards. Only in home-games, though; I've asked the floorman at the casino a hundred times, and the answer is always no...
  5. Try to imagine someone, with a straight face, exhorting you to have a personal relationship with Odin, Norse God of War, in the hope that when you die you may ascend to Valhalla? And telling you how awesome their life is, and their family's life, now that they've surrendered themselves to Odin?

    We used to use a small chihuahua in a suede front-sling as an extra set of eyes and ears -- to say nothing of his vastly superior olfactory sense -- when prospecting for gold in cougar country. Actually the pumas were less of a concern than one particular grumpy old black bear which was known to be very aggressive. It was considered prudent to remain well-clear of grandfather bruin. Stewart was a great, brave little captain with alot of personality, who always did yeoman's work. We had to keep an eye up for eagles, owls and ravens, though, who in Stewart certainly they thought was waiting a f
  7. Well, that's a nice belief, and you have every right to believe this, but it's still just that -- a belief.

    Sorry

    I'm relieved to hear you are feeling stronger. Being able to objectify the contents and movement of your inner space in times of crisis is important. In that distance the objectifying clarity has created there's a new energy, and a new space. All it requires is to look, with the flame of attention.It's also possible to maintain a more or less perpetual state of mindfulness about what are these movements, what is the present quality of that space, what forces lay behind the movements, and what happens when we just watch it all unfolding. You'd be surpised. You won't lose your edge. Quite the co
  10. Owning Mahoney is a true story, btw. I don't think it's more than a few years old, though. It is set in the 80s in a very realistic fashion. Actually someone I went to school with did all the design for that film. I am currently writing - or trying to write - a great poker film. I don't want to give too much away.

    Sorry

    Stein. You are one brutal mo**erfu**er.
  12. Perhaps, except I'd leave Buddhists out of it. Buddhism isn't about accepting articles of faith, and isn't, in fact, actually a religion.Christianity, Judaism, and Islam have a great deal in common; it would be nice to see alot more interfaith activity between them.

    Sorry

    There are other options for serious depression than pharmacological solutions. My advice to you is to seek a trained professional mental health care provider or psychotherapist. Depression is treatable in several ways. But it often helps just to take the first steps, and in your case that would be to find professional help so you can talk to someone who is trained to listen in a helpful manner, and can offer constructive guidance. The first step is yours, my friend. Don't paralyse yourself by only thinking of reasons not to seek help. Just do it!
  14. I'm not so sure about that. It's true that you cannot logically prove a negative, so disproving god's existence is pretty much out of the question, and the claim that god exists is an exceptional claim requiring exceptional proofs, and all biblical arguments for god's existence only beg the question, but arguments for god's existence can be made by some, and they can also be examined, and torn apart by others, like me for instance. I don't think it's fair to say that nobody knows what they are talking about. I certainly have a pretty good idea of where I am coming from. Maybe I misread your po
