Re: Space Invaders

Tim:

I'm playing it on a PS2 - original Taito ROM, so all the tricks and the likes work as they should. What I do is create a "5 x 1" setup, as described in the guide.

By the time they get down...

Re: 2D, 3D and 4D Man

An interesting point of this is that 2d man is able to see a shadow of a 3d object - say a cube. He can see the shadow of this cube in his 2d world, but is unable to comprehend what it is.

Re: Watch out for the \"Glasgow kiss\"

I'm in Glasgow - Cash games really do suck here. 6 Card Omaha and the likes, all in semi-legal clubs. Casinos run £10 rebuy tournaments regularly, and few cash games. Apart from the poker, you'll...

Pot is around 50, and he...

Re: 3/6 NL-bottom set, multi-way pot

I don't get the turn check. I'd bet $150-ish. Were you going for a checkraise on the turn?

2/4nl hand recalled from memory. Villain has $250-ish, and I cover.

I'm dealt two red queens in mid-late position, and make it 20 to go after a limper. Only the button and I see the flop of:
