\"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Tonight's show is a 300/500 NL game without the expected theme that was mentioned earlier this week.

Last night's show was their 50/100 NL "Whale Game", which was the best whale game that didn't have Barry Greenstein included in the show. Something I learned from last night's show: Diablo + Jesus + James Woods + Hasan Habib on mega-tilt - boring businessmen = quality show. As usual, www.liveatthebike.com from 6-9pm PT to follow the action.

One final note, has anyone who's had problems watching the show posted their problems to the Computer Technical Help forum to see if they could help out?

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Maybe James Woods will become a regular on LATB. How much is he up in the two games he played? 6 or 7k maybe?

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

I don't think he's up that much, I'd say at most maybe about 1-2k, also note that he wasn't playing with his own money last night, Hasan had given him 5k to have him play at the table.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Yeah, thats right. Last night it looked like Woodsy had about 10k in chips when the show ended. Which would make him 5k ahead. and wasn't he up about 1k or 1.5k on tues night after seat 7 miss read his hand?

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

is the 300/500 a regular game at the bike?

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

They added the 300min/500max game about 3 months ago as a stepping stone between the $200 NL and the $500 NL unrestricted buyin game.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Last night's show was great, but it's good to see different levels like this one.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Agreed, and as I mentioned at the start of the thread, some valuable additions made the game last night so much better than the past few weeks.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

holy [censored] it sounds like tuch is deep throating the mic. nice way to welcome us.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

LeftyAce, did he say? the 2+2 guy? Doesn't show up in the username search.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Look in the Monday thread, he should turn up a couple times there.

EDIT: I did that myself, and it's LeftyAce7 who's a relatively new poster but said he was a long time follower of the show.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

LeftyAce7 - thanks kev.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Bart, I emailed this last night but never heard a response, maybe I missed it.

How many simultaneous feeds are going on nowadays? In other words, how many people are watching?

Thanks

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Is there a 2+2er in this game? I just tuned in.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Thanks for the answer Bart!

I've watched UK poker, and it's terrible. The blackjack shaped table is horrible to watch them play on. The broadcasters are boring as [censored].

Any talks with Cox Digital cable to get on a poker channel if they ever get it?

LeftyAce7 - seat 5 - long time follower, few posts.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Seat 5 would have been my guess.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

LOL

Nice play by the n00b in seat 9, goes all-in before the guy even makes his bet.

I'm constantly amazed at how many people do that.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

I acted out of turn once at a Taj tourney in AC, guy looked at me like I had three heads, then thanked me for saving him money. I went all in. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I was tired.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

would that be considered a FALSE START on seat 9?

not too bright... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Hollywood won a good sized pot when he had KK vs Brian's 77 Bart.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

you're right,

I think he broke him.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Silly question, but has there been talk about being on local cable in LA, sort of like on an infomercial type basis?

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Doesn't your pot equity go up significantly with a harmless turn card. sort of the same idea in Ed Miller's book talking about overpairs to a scary flop concept. Or is it just too dangerous in no limit to wait for the turn???

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Cable access like Wayne's World is the way to go.

Agreed, that's probably how I should've phrased the question. You could just stick the LA Poker Scene show on public access twice a week and get a few eyeballs to stare at it, especially if Shirley was on the show.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

I swear if Bart says "Schwing", I'm changing the channel....

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Why is it they allow these players to play out of racks? Intentional game slowdown in order to enable better L@TB coverage?

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

It's a standard thing in California to play out of racks.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

If Jesus's last name is Romero, he came in 21st in yesterday's Nl event.

full time player
 

the other day you said that full timr players should play no less than 30-60 limit.
I know many players that play less than that.
can you clarify why you feel this way/

thanks [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Looking at the Bike's site, there is a mention of 1 rebuy only, so it'll get closer to the 10k guarantee.

This irritates the hell out of me, too. I've never heard a good reason why players should be allowed to play out of racks.

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

black 5 - what a turn card for seat 2

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

you cannot play out of racks in san jose ca as well

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

If you play some of the area Tribal cardrooms, they require the chips to be out of the rack. They say it "kills the jackpot"

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

DID ANYONE ELSE HATE THAT DARK CHECK?

If seat 3 led out anyone think he would've taken it down?

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

Russ you big ass pussy! you should have pushed all in!

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (10/6)
 

What could he put him on with the limp large reraise from EP?

If he calls with JJ before the flop, he either puts him on AA or KK in which he is beat, or he's up against an underpair or AK suited; can he really put him on AQ making that play preflop?

Calling the pot with JJ on the flop just to fold it on the turn with no scare card?
