I'm not sure who is supposed to enjoy watching this kind of mismatch, which is the poker-playing equivalent of watching five starving mountain lions "compete" against a pound of chopped sirloin.

Sure, I'd pay a buck to see that.

Naturally, not for the competition with the chopped meat, but the inevitable one between the lions.

Who is this guy? 10-8s is not a small dog to most small pairs, it is actually a small favorite, and it is a only a 2:3 dog to off suit overcards.

Gus is a bad boy because of his play, not his attitude, his suggested line-up would be fun though.

ah well, all fads die eventually...I'll sorta like that when it happens...

[whiskeytown]

soft yes...

but as discussed in poker theory, a game reaches it's max. profitability with one or two idiots per table.

not the 6 or 7 i've been seeing online lately...
