What's it worth to you?

Re: Anyone seen James Woods online or live?
 

I have a feeling James Woods is a bad poker p[layer.

he was a fish against Jonny Chan.

Re: Anyone seen James Woods online or live?
 

Does anyone recall his part in identifying some would be terrorists on a flight a few years ago? It really happened. Leno asked him about it but Woods would not give any specifics.

That is the James Woods story I want to hear.

Yep, just as I suspected. 911 would not have hapened if they had just listened to James Woods. Some [censored] or [censored] was more concerned with the ball game or getting the kids to soccer practice than the prospect of thousands of people dying. Those CSMFs could have prevented that [censored]. Thanks for the link.

I agree. The government should shut down all air travel the moment any passenger starts acting suspiciously, and keep it shut down until they finish a thorough investigation. I know I'd feel safer.

Funny, but I think you may have twisted my words just a teeny bit. You don't blow off James [censored] Woods, man!

Sometimes you just do something because it's the right thing to do.

I've seen him at Commerce a few times. Low key, good natured.

When James Woods started playing, he'd always play at the Hustler. I remember, because when he started playing, the floor politely told me I had to then go on the board as "JWX" instead of "JW". Bah.

Well, Mr. Woods and I met over "JW, your 25-50 seat is ready" confusion. We got along great. After becoming a regular in the game, he quickly respected me. I got a little uncomfortable, because he realized that I was crushing the game. He started to ask me 20 questions after every hand (at the table)...stuff like "shoulda I checked the turn?" "what made you bet the river?". Sincere questions. I tried to be polite, but to not offer toooo much info.

Mr. Woods then asks me and LT (a prop who would play bigger if there was interest)....why don't we at the Hustler ever play bigger? We couldn't drum up the interest, and, alas, he ended up heading to Commerce.

A month after not seeing Mr. Woods at all, I head to Commerce with some friends. One friend, B, comes up to me. B is a great guy, semi retired lawyer. He plays 20-40, and JW is playing 40-80. I'm waiting for a 40-80 seat, and standing near the wall.

B comes up to me and says (remember, this was well over a year ago) "Man, James Woods is my favorite actor, but he can't play...I wish I could play 40-80 everyday with him". I said "Oh, he's your favorite actor? I'll introduce you to him". B said "C'mon, you can't do that.....can you?"


Well, I never got the chance. See, right then, James sees me and comes over and says hi, how's it going, still playing at the hustler, he likes it at commerce cuz of bigger/more games, etc etc etc. I wish him good luck, he heads back to his game, then I give B a hand, trying to pick up his jaw off the floor. B was floored that I really did know JW.

Long and confusing but I think it's a great story...

Re: I played with him at Foxwoods
 

He was indeed fantastic in Salvador. I always like him, but he was particularly effective, I think, in Ghosts of Mississippi, Once Upon a Time in America, True Believer, and Casino.
