GRATS TO IRIEGUY

[skipperbob]

/images/graemlins/smile.gifI'm sure that other 2+2'er's will join me in a "Grats" post for Irieguy's 1st Place finish in yesterday's main event at Orleans....150 players...$300 Buyin (+) $300 rebuy....How much do I like my "ownership" of Irieguy in the *STTFHUC_LAC* = A Lot /images/graemlins/cool.gif

[The Yugoslavian]

Yes, Irie pwn3d the Orleans like a 2 dolla whore. Maybe he'll even treat us to a hand or two, /images/graemlins/shocked.gif.

Congrats, keep it up IRE. If you dont mind me asking what were the payouts for the tourney?

[Unarmed]

Congrats!
Good to see all the tips I'm giving you are paying off. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

A ballpark guess would be about $30K for first.

Nice score, Irie.

[Jman28]

Congrats Irie. Nice payday I'm sure.

Also congrats to skipperbob. I think this is the closest thing to an on-topic/strategy post I've ever seen from you.

Thank You...Actually I've been so busy winning $215 SnG's & maintaining my place on the Empire Leaderboard that I have been unable to make any reply-posts to the "What do I do with A-Joff in UTG position in my fourth-ever $5/0.50 Sng?"...Or, even more poignant, "Gee I just had 4 OTM's in a row; Now what?"

Wow that's sweet

You picked the wrong cowboy Jman. Better luck next time.

I call BS. You don't actually play poker.

Btw, I've climbed up to 113th on the leaderboard! booya!

[nate_king1]

Pwned, they didn't even have a chance!

[wuwei]

Nice work, Irie! Let's hear a trip report when you have some time.

[SlackerMcFly]

I guess it's true when they say: "Even a blind pig roots up an acorn once in a while......" /images/graemlins/wink.gif

Great job Irie! Looking forward to hearing about a couple of crucial hands or whatnot.

I was just messing around, man, so I'm not going to argue with you unless you really want me to.

I wish I didn't have such a burning hatred for this face /images/graemlins/wink.gif so that people would know when I am joking.

[skipperbob]

/images/graemlins/cool.gifNot a problem Jman & no, I don't want to argue. Actually, the criticism that I get for "off-topic" posts is well-deserved; it's just that once the basic strategy of SnG play is understood, there's not much else to do.

Sadly, I can't make a career out of cynical reviews of Slacker's posts, although the territory is broad and full of promise, so I must entertain myself with nonsense. /images/graemlins/frown.gif /images/graemlins/frown.gif

[Jman28]

I feel ya.

[Blarg]

Pardon me for interrupting the love fest, but grats Irie!

There, I got my share out.

[Amerzel]

Grats man! Hope you never get too rich to stop posting here, your input is well respected.

[tigerite]

Agreed, nh Irie.

[barry111]

IRIE MON! GOOD JOB (http://niceup.com/covers/irie_time.gif)

[brimstone1]

congratulations, certainly a nice pay day.

[Scuba Chuck]

That is awesome. How does this change your poker future?

Scuba

You must have missed it.

[SuitedSixes]

Did your winnings make it past the craps table or out of CH2?

[valenzuela]

ty, Im complaining about pokerpages failing to write a report( they did a report for 2 orleans thing events)

[PapiChulo503]

Nice job bro. In 1 tourney you made what I make in half a year of working in a gortex suit fixing machines.

Do you plan on playing bigger games now that your bankroll has moved up a notch?

Fortunately for my bankroll, it was 3am and I had a busy day at work scheduled for monday. I made it home with 100% of my cash (minus tips... as usual, I gave the cocktail waitress 5X as much as the dealers and staff).

I'll have a delayed celebration at CH2 soon, though.

This is quite possibly the single funniest thing ever written by SkippyBob. I can't belive all y'all are letting him slide on this one. Skipper makes a great point here, of course. In about 40 years (Skipper will be 134 years old for those of you scoring at home), Skipper too may have "not much else to do."

In the meantime, please post some hands from your $215's and enlighten us mere mortals as to how powerful you have become.

I can't post hands because I don't know how to download/save/copy/paste/or post (the whole deal being part of the "not much else to do" paradigm....Besides that, I am currently involved with trying to learn how to Text-Message on my cellphone...which is very complex

I challenge both of you to post one mildly interesting hand a day for a week. Just one...

Hell, I'll even volunteer to train the skipper on how to copy and paste.

Yeah, grats to you Jordan... I hear you won like $938482379872109472304192837402 in multis over the weekend. I pity the craps crew at the Wynn/Palace Station over Labor Day weekend with all the STTF 'ballers in town.
