Re: I\'m Hot For Teacher (err, T.A.) Results
Give it another shot after grades come out. When I was a TA the general rule was no going out with students until the grades are in. That might explain her request to come talk later. BTW, my...

Re: FILM: Movies that have made you tear up
The end of Band of Brothers gets me everytime. Specifically, the part where the real life Winters quotes Sgt. Mike Ranney of the 101st: "In thinking back on the days of Easy Company, I'm treasuring...

Re: FILM: Favourite film moment, ever?
Miller's Crossing, near the end:
Bernie: Tommy! Look in your heart!
Tom: What heart?
Don't want to give away too much, but this scene ties together the movie together perfectly and makes you...

Re: Wynn $3 chips / Excalibur limits
[ QUOTE ]
Why not use $5 and $1 chips? Heck, the Mirage uses 5 & 1 for the 6/12 game.

It is not a coincidence that the 8/16 game at the Bellagio and the 6/12 at the Mirage are two...

Re: Wynn $3 chips / Excalibur limits
The Wynn uses $2 chips for 8/16, which I like. The Bellagio uses a combo of $5 and $1 chips for 8/16, which I think is incredibly dumb. Still, when I played at the Wynn people were complaining...

Re: My first poker trip to vegas
I played about 20 hours of 8/16 in Vegas a couple weeks ago and can offer some comments. I found the Bellagio 8/16 to be a pretty rockish game during the day. There were lots of chopped pots and...

Re: best CYE episode?
I love the one where his mom dies and he keeps using it as an excuse to get out of stuff even though he's not mourning. I also love the one with Laraine Newman where he invents a story at the incest...

Re: Reduced rake for short-handed table
I was playing 8/16 at the Bellagio and the Wynn last week and I asked for reduced rake when the table got short. The dealer at the Bellagio told me she had already reduced it and the floor quickly...

Vegas and Mesquite Trip Report (longish)
I just finished a year long job in Utah and figured I'd celebrate by donking it up at the card table. I started by hitting the Oasis in Mesquite. What a dump. Granted the rates are only $30/night...

Re: Poker in Mesquite?
Thanks for the responses. I can't make the Open, but does anyone know the structure of the daily tournies? Are they the typical low buy-in, quickly escalating blinds, bingo-fests?

Re: Best Crime Movie of All Time...
I'll throw in another vote for Miller's Crossing, which I think is the best movie the Coen Brothers have made (and I consider Raising Arizona and Lebowski to be among the top comedies of all time).

Re: Cy Young
I think Kenny Rogers should at least be on the list. He's got the lowest ERA in the AL at 1.69 and while his WHIP and K numbers aren't that good the old man deserves some resepect.

Re: wendover, nv
It's a relief to hear that there is a decent poker room in Wendover as I'm about to move to SLC. How far a drive is it? I've also heard about a shuttle-- does anyone know how that works?
