Re: Muslim Immigrants: Importing Terrorists?

Re: AA on the BB
Certainly I have the best (or tied for it) pre-flop. I am quite sure someone else must have AA with me, so there is little chance of improvement. I would have to win with AA, 2 pr, st or flush and...

Re: Who are the worlds best 7-Stud players?

Re: Well, \"I back and I\'m proud\"
You finally got it....no response. Remember, sometimes no one can tell how stupid you are if you never speak (write, talk, moan etc.)Spend more tim playing and less criticizing others.

Re: Well, \"I back and I\'m proud\"
