  1. Telling an opponent to go die.Could you imagine Greenstein or Negreanu saying that to another player?Try controlling your emotions.
  2. im just looking to bet for recreational purposes(i.e. bet on the game i'm planning on watching that day)not to say i wont ever bet parlays but i mainly want to bet on games i'm going to be watching and also games that i feel are close to "sure things"so far i've taken a look at SPORTSBETTING.COM but i don't want to make any decisions until i here from other people who do this
  3. hi,i don't post very often but i was hoping i could get some tips from those of you who bet on sports online.i'm wondering what are the best sites. i mainly just want to be able to bet on single games (nba/mlb/nhl/nfl), not any parlays or anthing like that.i dont know much about how this all works, so any help would be appreciatedthanks-brandon
  4. this is a good point. people who are saying its because they can and not be attacked physically by the other person are simplifying the issue. i've noticed this for some time, and thats that online poker seems to bring out the worst in alot of people.i dont know if its because players see poker as a "war" and put themselves into that mindframe. if their defnces are up and believe everyone at the table is out to get them (or their money atleast). its not uncommon for players to develop hatreds/vendettas towards opponents who take away pots from them or even beat them legitimately. the simple fa
  5. i don't really like the idea of being able to chop a pot preflop, and possibly throughout. (farha-elezra hand that was chopped before the flop). i know the other 4-5 players involved in the pot only had 600 invested but regardless.lets say player A raises utg and a middle position player calls. then, the button reraises big. the utg player calls and the middle position player folds. at this point, the two remaining players decide to chop it before seeing a flop.personally, if i was the middle position player i would be annoyed by this kind of activity/tactic and possibly even suspect collusion

    i like his humour, for the most part.i thought the comment he made when AJ called the guy swastika was pretty funny. something about leaving the casino and going to the ballagio in a hitler-like voice. a little bit risque but funny nonetheless.hsp, best poker show on t.v and probably the best commentating aswell.
  7. apparently, there is serious talk about the NHL increasing the size of their nets.personally, i would welcome it. judging by some of the opinions i read on yahoo's message board, i won't be surprised if anyone disagrees.i believe it will increase scoring chances and ultimately goals. perhaps it will be possible again to score wrap around goals, maybe shots from the sideboards, just inside the blue line would have a chance, or breakaways for a good player can be a gimme again.i'm just sick of seeing goals predominatly being scored off of deflections and rebounds and want hockey to go back to th
  8. 67% is really good, albeit a very small samplei'd say if you can near or reach 50% cashes, you're doing welli used to play 5$ sng's on stars almost exclusively but after a while, playing them will drive you insane. There isn't much room for fancy play or "i think, he thinks, i think" poker. the majority of players who play them are not thinking and are just there to have fun and gamble a little.so to sum up, there is money to be made at 5$ sngs, the problem is you're unlikely to improve your game against this kind of competition
  9. the guy made a really good comment about how they're employers should be the ones paying them adequately, not the customer. it sounded to me that he thought it was unfortunate that the system is set up that way. personally, i agree.as for spitting and/or other nasty s*** waiters and delivery workers do to these customers. i'm sure karma rewards them with much worse than the guy who didn't tip them. perhaps with 10 more yrs of delivering pizzas for a living
  10. what he did in both stories wasnt right and he probably shouldnt have mentioned it in a poker forumbut give him a break, its not like he put his penis on someones back
  11. i've also noticed with the recent update, that when its your turn to act, the flashing on your icon goes much quickerits gonna take some getting used to, but i definitely dont like iti hope they get complaints and switch it back
  12. i was just curious if daniel or anyone knows if the 64 players involved in the league are still obliged to pay a buy-in up front?or do the sponsors make up the prize pool?i assume its a combination of both but if anyone knows for sure, i'd be interested to knowthanks
  13. nothing wrong with benefiting from something an opponent says that gives away the strength of their handShe said not aces but closeThe hands he expects to see in order are likely:AAQQAhKhKKand maybe JJif he believes what she says, he can eliminate the aces and make the correct play which is a call.even if she has KK, he would be glad to chop the other players chips with her assuming the drunk doesnt have a set or happens to draw out.
  14. i dont agree that it's colusion. The guy with the kings put her on aces and her response to his questioning satisfied those suspicions. He's not a know it all, just a THINKING poker player that required more information. He then obtained it through conversation (sound like anybody we know on this site).if it was colusion, in what way did the guy who folded the kings benefit?btw, did your sisters kings hold up?
  15. sorry, but i agree with the site on this one.they made a good point in one of the emails that they sent you when they said they have stricter policies against harassment towards pros. This makes sense as i'm sure there is a large number of people who enjoy doing just that. Probably for no other reason than to get a reaction from the pros or so they can tell their friends that they told mike matasow to "bl*w me". btw, i bet you have told your friends of this interaction with the mouth and have had a good laugh.The pros playing on the site (i'd imagine, who play even at low levels of $$) attrac
