"Official" Live at the Bike thread (12/12) (8/16 Limit)

[Kevmath]

Tonight's show is a return to what was to be a Monday event, limit holdem! Expect to see people playing out of racks, 3 betting with trash, and all sorts of limit fun. You can follow along and catch limit fever at www.liveatthebike.com (http://www.liveatthebike.com) from 6-9pm PT.

[spsurfin_Michael]

Good Evening. Do we know what the limit will be? 6/12 or 8/16?

I have had this atvar for years. The guy who hosted it inadvertently deleted it. I finally got him to host it again.

And yes, I will be there tomorrow night. What time are you planning to show up?

[ThaHero]

I'm gonna head down to this game in a little while when traffic dies down. Need to get somethin to eat(casino food, yuck). Hopefully I don't lose my whole roll taking a shot lol. I haven't played any serious limit hold em in weeks. If the action is anything like last time, though, I should have no trouble provided I get some cards.

[spsurfin_Michael]

I play this game during the day. The typical but in is one rack and some players will only buy in for $100.

[ThaHero]

So will I look like an ass if I buy in for $400? lol

What game are they playing tomorrow?

[spsurfin_Michael]

300-500 NL Blinds are 5-5.

And no, if you buy in for 2 racks you will be fine. This game should net you 3-6 BB per hour.

Hey guys, everything should be set for tomorrow. I will call the Plaza in the am and get our names on the list. I hope to be there around 3 or so. See ya there. PS Brings lots of $$$$ lol

nice...I'll be there around 4-4:30pm, I'll bring plenty to donk off and now that Tuch is planning on playing, I might have to bring a little more...

btw, my initials are GK barry.

[ThaHero]

OK I'm leaving now hopefully I get a seat and get on before the show goes off. My name is Jarrett.

[surfinillini]

are you black?

Seriously, Tuch is playing? SWEET!

Geoff, you want GK or Geoff? SP, how do you want your name listed?

doesn't matter b, either way, I might not be there until the game fires up, traffic from WV is bad 101 E/B is always tough, either way, I'll be there at 5pm latest...I just don't want to get involved in any type of name/seat disputes as there were with other players last time.

how did you do on Friday???

[ThaHero]

Yes, I am. How'd you guess?

[macmacer]

Is anybody else having troubles with the feed? Could you include the link to the media player if you have it Kevmath?
Thanks

I will get there 3:30 4:00 ish. Now remember my disclaimer: "I am a limit player" so take it easy on me /images/graemlins/grin.gif /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Thanks again Barry for setting this game up /images/graemlins/cool.gif

[surfinillini]

I remember you posting in B&M about getting pulled over near HP when we were talking about LA cardrooms.

my stream went dead, you better get down there, 105 to the 710 is gonna take 45 min at best.

Mine keeps stopping and going to the loop video sample

yes - feed is not working for me either

might have to call it a night if they can't smooth it out.

[macmacer]

It went dead on me for a few minutes (with Bart saying somebody is on thier way down over and over), and now it is actualy going to something else, stopping every couple of seconds to refresh.

[Russ McGinley]

Hello all. Show looks great tonight! {<--- note witty sarcasm}

riiiiight???

edit:

Loc: +11.5 BB/100 5/10 - you're going to have to prove this russ, pm me your pt stats /images/graemlins/smile.gif

At least I'm honest about my TLB placement...

[spsurfin_Michael]

Barry,

You can put me on the list as MPD. I did not know Tuch was playing. This should be a lot of fun.

Limit sucks normally. When the feed keeps screwing up, it O RLY sucks

BDub1

[surfinillini]

oh [censored], here we go with the O RLY and YA RLY pics...

[Russ McGinley]

I will post the screenshot in a minute once I black everybody's names out. You will of course ignore the sample size.

[spsurfin_Michael]

I was in Laughlin Friday to Sunday playing. How did the Friday game night go?

[surfinillini]

5 more min and I'll be calling it a night...

me too

[surfinillini]

nice photoshopping russ, you have a bright future /images/graemlins/smile.gif

1st - sample size too small - 377 hands is multitabling 4 tables after 1 hour, I thought you had a large sample.

2nd - try to keep this up, don't forget to change LOC to -10BB/hour, as swings in limit are rough and hard to control.

in reality though, this is a good session but highly unlikely to maintain over a sample size of 10K hands

[Russ McGinley]

I told you to ignore the sample size. I'm going to ride the wave though for as long as it takes me. And that's only one table.

[cwsiggy]

Look forward to tomorrows matches. Will be great.

[Russ McGinley]

Was the show on at all tonight?

any idea why i get no video or audio from my external monitor tonight? i need to watch on a bigger screen than my laptop screen.

[Nathan_2]

The show broke.

See, even God is punushing you for putting limit on!

Good nite y'all

[BartHanson]

Can anyone see the show? Or is it just having buffering problems? We still get it in studio via the sream

Bart

[ThaHero]

What a night to come....well I'm here now. May as well sit.

[Russ McGinley]

Nobody can see the show Bart. I believe most of the regulars have abandoned ship.

[Nathan_2]

Houston we have a problem.

Nothing is playing, this is shameful. I thought you guys had a multimillion dollar budget.

[Kevmath]

It's buffering pretty badly, there was a couple minutes no problem, but it's stuck yet again.

[cwsiggy]

Until tomorrow.........

Night all - and I wanted to see some limit for an hour.

[BartHanson]

Well we are continuing to broadcast the show. If you are having problems viewing it now try watching it on the rerun loop.

Bart

[macmacer]

Couple of minutes of play, with plenty of buffering in between. I saw pocket aces twice, I think it won once maybe, the other time it was beat by a flopped nut flush (seat 4 of course won the flush hand).

It is working (for now) got in to hear about the nut no pair hands, for about 95 seconds now and counting.

[Tha Villain]

Just got off the phone with my bro. They just got a seat for him so he should be sitting down at the table now. He's "Tha Hero" on here in case you haven't guessed by our names.

Sucks cause my feed is messed up too. So I can't even see him play lol.

[Tha Villain]

Okay so the commercials seem to be working fine lol.

[Dopey]

Bart (Or anyone at LATB),

I sent an e-mail a few days ago regarding your archives and got a response from Joker gaming but would like to hear from LATB about what is happening with the archives. Below is a copy of the e-mail:

[ QUOTE ]

Can you please explain why you are not updating your archives with all episodes. I was under the impression that archive updates where happening within 24 hours of the episodes but I see no shows for Nov.29 (One the few limit nights you show) or December 6-7? If your archives are not being updated with all episodes I feel like I am not receiving what was advertised and am considering cancelling my archive membership. Having been a member for 9 months this kind of drop in service is unacceptable. I look forward to your response


[/ QUOTE ]

I am a big fan of live at the bike (although I continue to be dissapointed that you dont get more limit games on).

Also, I have had problems 2 out of 3 times that ive tried to watch the 1am PST replay of the show (Specifically last fridays show, which also hasn't been updatedto the archives.) Have you heard about this yet and do you know of any reasons why.

Dopey /images/graemlins/smirk.gif

[cwsiggy]

ok - I see it now- will watch for a while.

[surfinillini]

me2 - just tuned back in to see ThaHero in action...

[IronDragon1]

Working again-for now at least.

[Kevmath]

Will ThaHero be hitting ThaRail if he doesn't hit ThaFlop enough times?

[macmacer]

It has worked for a few hands now. Thanks for fixing whatever was wrong.

[BartHanson]

We made an adjustment is the stream better right now?

Bart

[cwsiggy]

Ok - I'm going to track the "playable hands vs hands played cause well - why not. Might have trouble seeing where the blinds are though.

[Nathan_2]

getting better but still disconnects, on a scale of 1 to 10 went from 0 to a 1.5

[cwsiggy]

Does anyone cold call a raise with 910suited?? knowing at most there will be three players?
This is where my game or "chart memoriztion" for lack of a better term needs improvement.

[Nathan_2]

Ok your back on webcasting to 43 people congratulations.

[Tha Villain]

It's MUCH better now. I'm getting a near-perfect feed now. Thanks!

[Tha Villain]

I just tuned in. Why does Seat 4 have so many chips? Is it a capped Buy-In or is he/she just playing good?

[cwsiggy]

That's the limit hold'em we love. Bad players, bad pre flop decisions - the works. Carla is soooo bad.

[IronDragon1]

Your brother looks BORED

[macmacer]

Usually limit games have no cap in them. When the show started she had about 1100. It is not that hard to be up that much (say she started with 400, and won a 100 dollar hand every 30 minutes, and lost some here and there).

[Tha Villain]

lol that's his "poker face." We're twins so I guess I probably look like that too.

[Russ McGinley]

God just killed another kitten. Well played pocket aces.

[cwsiggy]

Oh brother...

[Tha Villain]

Wow that hand was weird...

[Nathan_2]

macmacer post at 6:45 to bart's adjustment post at 7:46.

[Russ McGinley]

OMG this is crazy. Come on case 5!

Damn. Is seat 4 playing with like 10 racks?

[cwsiggy]

Thu is seat 9 lost like 15k last time she was on (no limit game) - remember that? Surprised Bart doesn't remember her. It was a bloodbath.
haha - she thinks she is way better than she is .

[Tha Villain]

lol that's what I was saying! Seat 4 has like almost $1,000!

[IronDragon1]

It's not the same Tho/Thu.

[Russ McGinley]

Is that your bro in seat 5? Tell him not to shake the table or all those racks seat 4 has might come crashing down and kill him.

[Kevmath]

If the case 5 got there, that'd have been a 20 on the Bartgasm scale. Wenny likes playing when racks > height in feet.

[Tha Villain]

I can see how she lost 15k. That last hand she was in was murder. It looks like tonight isn't gonna be much better for her...

[cwsiggy]

[ QUOTE ]

[/ QUOTE ]

Really? I would swear it's the same chickey who got slaughtered in the no limit game. I could be wrong - my bad.

[Kevmath]

Completely different Tu, the other Tu is/was the girlfriend of noted ATM "Action Joe" Nguyen.

[Tha Villain]

LMAO! Yeah that's him. He has to be careful here lol.

[Russ McGinley]

Man this game is funny. I walked right into my 11.5 BB/100 streak this weekend at the 5/10 Party tables and I am still jealous of people who get to play with these morans on a regular basis.

[Tha Villain]

Wow did you see the dealer fumble the deck into the shuffler? lol.

[vistaplayer]

So is the 8/16 game at Ocean's 11 as fun as this?

[Russ McGinley]

SOOOOTED

[cwsiggy]

Russ - enjoy the Ted Forrest like heater you are on while it lasts!

[Russ McGinley]

AA 5 times in 377 hands (and they all win) and my first ever royal flush. I'm about 99% certain Dikshit will flip the switch tomorrow.

[surfinillini]

looks like our hero is card dead, I like how he plays though - NICE AND TIGHT, this is the right game for that strategy...

[Nathan_2]

Every 2+2'er ever on L@TB ends up cold decked, it's the curse of 2+2, switch to RGP if you want a winning session.

[Russ McGinley]

God I hate AJo.

[Tha Villain]

Yeah he isnt getting much. He's usually pretty patient but its starting to wear thin. But it seems like he's finally getting something to play with so hopefully it'll turn around. I'm glad he got away from those 10's though.

[Tha Villain]

It's funny cause you see everyone playing A5o UTG and 69o and hitting flops.

My bro probably thought his AJ was good because of that. Oh well.

[surfinillini]

you are correct about the cards, twice for me...

[Tha Villain]

Is there a delay in the feed? If not, I'm gonna use my Twin-Telekenisis and help him take down a pot. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

[spsurfin_Michael]

Good to see the game is back up and running

[macmacer]

Yes there is a delay to prevent people from cheating. Also you would have to make sure the river is helping your bro out.

Good job in making that river a 2!

[spsurfin_Michael]

How is our boy doing? Kicking some ass I trust?

[Russ McGinley]

If by "kicking ass" you mean "getting nothing", then he's doing great!

Woo! Pocket kings and top set. Lets see everybody miss or hit then pair the board.

[Russ McGinley]

ROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROLLOOLLERSKATES HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH NICE CALL WITH J2 HERE YOU GO JARRETT HAVE SOME MONEY AHAHAHAHAHAH YOU IDIOT

Jarrett is da' man!!!!!! These people are crazy!! Just givin' money away. I've gotta get into that game...

[surfinillini]

He's got KKK - wow, that looks really bad

NH Jarrett - stay tight, VALUE BET THESE FISH

[Tha Villain]

YAY! GOOD JOB BRO!

Maybe now we can pay the water bill!!

does nobody else think Bart's laugh is identical to Paul Ruebens (AKA PEE WEE HERMAN)

[Russ McGinley]

I dunno, but does Carla and people like her actually exist? J-5-3 rainbow and she calls with K2o? Does she understand that the flop and her hand don't match at all? Does she know what those letters and numbers mean?

russ, she went broke after being up to like $500, what do you expect?

[Nathan_2]

You can find more like her here (http://www.gamblersanonymous.org/).

It's just hard to believe sometimes. It's like "there's nobody THAT bad". Then they keep showing up.

lol yeah some of those people are REALLY bad players. And I thought I was bad!

Just got off the phone with my bro. He's gonna stay and play some $200 NL. Hopefully he'll get some cards this time.

[ThaHero]

Well I tried my best fellas. Just didnt get any cards. That KK hand was the only pot I won. Maybe next time...

Nicely played. I'm hoping the KK hand allowed you to finish slightly up or break-even. How badly did you want to bitch-slap that luckbox Weeney seeing her suck out time after time? (not talking about her AQ vs your AJ).

[/ QUOTE ]

There wasn't much I could do on that AQ-AJ hand...just destined to lose.

I was down about 200 when I got those Kings and that took me back to around -100. Yes I was pretty frustrated, especially on that J2s hand where she caught runner runner. The way she played I knew my AJ had to be good lol, how wrong I was.

I was licking my chops seeing 5 way action in raised pots, but never caught any cards. Just kept missing. I did make my money back and walked away with a little profit when I sat down in the 200NL game. I also met Tuchman too, very nice guy, and the lady that is a producer(?) was very nice as well.

Tuchman is a terrible player. You can try to defend your friend but bottom linei s his arrogance as a commentator won't be tolorated after tonight. Again, I stress he is not a good player and if I were in town would love to play him heads up or otherwise.

People play the same way always, no one changes their play drastically to make it sound as if Tuchman is fooling around tonight is a sin. He is a prop he is too cheap to fool around. Get real Bart.

BS he isn't playing for fun Bart, he is a loser and a poor player bottom line.
