Re: Concealed Handgun License??

A little off-topic, but a private game I was at this weekend had its own "security". The guy seemed a little high-strung. In any event, about 6 hours into the game, the idiot shot himself in the...

Re: What\'s your real job

I know what you mean. But it's easier than explaining that I do "corporate finance" transactions. "So, you basically just fill in forms, right?" Yeah, that's why I'm at the office at 3:30 am ...

Re: Home Poker Games Networking - Nice Idea?

I think this may meet the legal definition of "Racketeering". So be careful.

Re: 5-5 Bankroll Buy In Advice

I play in a regular 5-5 game as well, where the normal buy-in is $400. It's a pretty LAG game with some genuinely horrible players though. The worst swings I typically see are 3-4 buy-ins, but I...

Re: No, I really do have the Ace

I would lay this one down and wait for a better hand to go against this guy. Sound like you'll get the chance to get all of his chips in the middle at some point, so why not just wait until you can...
