Al Capone Jr, I have a proposition for you...
 

I would like to challenge you to a best out of 5 (or 7) heads up sit and go series. Im very serious about this. It can be stars, paradise, or wherever (your choice). I will play any limit up to $500 per match. I cant afford any higher than $500. Would you be interested, PM me if you like. All are free to watch. We can do one a night or two a night if you would like. The winner of the matches will obviously make money, but we can have an extra bonus prize if you would like. Flame away people, I know its coming, but im serious about this. Happy holidays to everyone. I hope I dont get banned for this, if its against the rules, please delete the post, thanks.

Re: Al Capone Jr, I have a proposition for you...
 

I probably just don't read the boards enough, but is there a reason you are throwing the challenge to Capone jr in particular? Are you another poster and using a second account and have a history with Capone?

Re: Al Capone Jr, I have a proposition for you...
 

First, try this in PM's please. Second, it's on the internet, has nothing to do with B&M casinos. Third, you really had to make a gimick account just to make this post? LOL

I'd love to watch.

Re: Al Capone Jr, I have a proposition for you...
 

To be fair, OP posted this in the Zoo, but as Al spends all his time in this forum, I moved it here, so Al would see it.

Please feel free to move it back, once Al responds, if you so wish.

let the games begin, and the looser will get a capone kick in the nuts

Re: Al Capone Jr, I have a proposition for you...
 

Your 2nd post you're asking Al for a best-of-five $500 freezeout? Not a PM but a public post?

I don't know...but I sense a kick in the nuts coming!

Re: Al Capone Jr, I have a proposition for you...
 

Hey Mike

I was just browsing that forum and noticed it was moved. Must have been moved right before I read it.

My other 2 statements in my OP still apply. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Al Capone Jr, I have a proposition for you...
 

Somehow I was expecting:

Cartman: Well. First I kick you in the nuts as hard as I can, then you kick me in the nuts as hard as you can, and we keep going back and forth until somebody falls. The last one standing gets the arrowhead.

Re: Al Capone Jr, I have a proposition for you...
 

Thank you mike for clearing that up for him (posting in the zoo), merry x-mas to you.

Re: Al Capone Jr, I have a proposition for you...
 

Capone doesn't play online.

OK everybody, I have arrived! Was just polishing my boots...
 

Well I sign in this morning and see this challenge post (and some rather interesting responses), so I guess I have to respond...

First off, I'm not impressed by your creating a phantom account to hide your true identity. Everyone knows exactly who I am, many have met me, many have played against me, both online and live, and it isn't a mystery who *I* am. Although I don't like to divulge where I work on the forums, I make no effort to hide my identity to those who ask. It's doubtful I will take you up on your offer as long as your true identity remains anonymous.

Second, I don't play online anymore. That's basically etched in stone. I do however, make the occasional exception for the king of the zoo tournaments. I had fun bantering and talking chit with the zooers. I respect the KOTZ group of players, and like to occasionally make an appearance in their tournaments. This is especially true since I did win a KOTZ pot limit hold'em event a couple years ago, thus I am a former KOTZ champion. The final hand I won with pocket ACES, BTW (you can find the whole story posted somewhere in the archives, I think in the MTT forum). However, I'm a LIVE player now, I live in VEGAS.

Third, I'm not opposed to a challenge. I don't always have to have the best of it, I will play against better players. Hell, if greenstein or negraneau or sklansky wanted to play me in a heads up match of some sort, and I could afford the stakes, I would take them on, even though I wouldn't have any illusions about who was more likely to win the match. There are lots of players out there who are better than me.

Fourth, a heads up match doesn't really test much except one's skills in heads up matches. I haven't played an actual heads up match in quite a while. You might be an online heads up SNG specialist and be highly favored to kick my ass, I don't know, because your true identity hasn't been revealed yet.

Fifth, I am not opposed to a publicity stunt just for the fun of it. I considered challenging Vince Lepore to a live heads up limit hold'em match a while back, just because I like Vince and his posts, and I figured we would have fun with it. But I got sidetracked with life and never got around to it, oh well. He would have been favored to beat me, as he's certainly a better limit player than me, but I would have had fun taking him on anyway.

Lastly, I wouldn't do this type of thing for a lot of money. Anything that is significant to me financially would be best spent by me playing in live ring games here in Vegas. I can pick and choose my games, leave when the game sucks, stay when it's good, and generally be assured that over time I will beat the tourists and make a decent hourly rate playing cards. $500 a match is far more than I would ever consider for a heads-up challenge, particularly not best of five (or seven), played online against an unknown 2+2 opponent.

So I'm not saying there's no way I will ever take you on, but thusfar it doesn't look good. Work on it some and get back with me. Perhaps as a publicity stunt for the next magoo fest we could arrange something tho....

The fish detector...
 

Just to clarify on whiskey's post...

The fish detector is a Bass Fishin' hand held video game that I like to walk around with in the poker room when I'm the boss. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

everyone watch out, ACJ is drinking and posting in the afternoon again... [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: OK everybody, I have arrived! Was just polishing my boots...
 

I would REALLY like to see a you vs. Vince match.

How about adding THAT for the Magoo-fest next summer?

Re: ROUNDER I AM CALLING YOU OUT
 

Dude, is it afternoon already? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Ahhhhhhh... Cold beer! My absolute FAVORITE type of beer happens to be COLD!

Re: ROUNDER I AM CALLING YOU OUT
 

That's odd, my favorite beer is whatever someone just handed me.

Remeber, you don't have to wait until afternoon, just until "double digits". mmmmmm, beerbrunch.

Re: ROUNDER I AM CALLING YOU OUT
 

Beer, not just for breakfast anymore!

Re: ROUNDER I AM CALLING YOU OUT
 

P.S Merry Christmas

You may ask yourself, Why in the Hell is Steamboatin posting on the Internet form at 1 AM on Christmas morning? because I just asked myself the very same question.

I think I will go to bed.

Re: ROUNDER I AM CALLING YOU OUT
 

I'd play you HU Capone, but you always crack my Aces so I'd know that I was doomed from the start. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Yeah, I've been known to crack a few aces in my time. Hey, they should have seen that guyshot on the river coming! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

But a couple weeks ago a real el bastardo that I happen to know cracked MY aces with his pathetic ass KINGS, friggin' runner-runner flush! I haven't been able to forgive the SOB since. In fact, I'm considering kicking him in the NUTS right this minute!

Still tho, I had to make some sort of silly ass post to bump this thread, since the OP hasn't really made any sort of meaningful response to my official reply yet!

p.s. beer = GOOT [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

p.p.s. It's 11am here in vegas but I am drinking a beer right at this very moment, and I must say, it's a refreshingly COLD one, my favorite kind! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Capone Vs. Lepore?

If Vince would agree, I would not only arrange it, but I'd make sure the whole thing got videotaped so we could sell copies, T-shirts, bobble-heads etc, so we could make a buck or two on the side! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Hey, I found this laser-etched Raymer-esque glasses company that could make "Capone Vs. Lepore, Magoo-Fest 2006" shades. The proceeds of course would go to the pockets of Vince and Myself! Don King would promote the event! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Yeah, I'm getting kinda disappointed here. I guess I'll have to spot him some chips to make it fair.

Re: ROUNDER I AM CALLING YOU OUT
 

Prolly made a bet with his homeroom class that he could get X number of replies from ACJ. I see neither hide nor hair.

Conclusion? Doesn\'t look good boy
 

Sorry rounder, but it appears you wimped. Put up a challenge, then wimp out and never reply again to the thread... Kinda pathetic if you ask me. I guess either your mommy grounded you from the computer (again), or you were just full of hot air. Hope I replied enough times for you to win your bet tho.

As for the heads-up match, I'll just have to wait for a more worthy opponent.
