"Death or Glory" by The Clash.
Although I imagine "Slaves and Bulldozers" by Soundgarden might help you pick up tells . . .

Any Avril will do. Just ask Spicy. Skater boi, Mobile, Tomorrow, etc. .....


And if you get desperate enough, Britney Spears' "Lucky" commit suicide or get unstuck.

That's the funniest thing I've seen in a long time.

Nice to see another Chris Cornell fan prowling the boards. BTW, did you know that Ultramega OK was nominated for a grammy for best hard rock album back in '88?

for any coldplay fans, there's a track on their "brothers and sisters" single called "only superstition" which i like a lot. i don't know if it's meant to be about poker but i find something in it that makes me think of it... lyrics below.

jeff

Only Superstition
by Coldplay

A cardboard inner-city
Has found its way to me
It's out, and it's out, and it's out
Making me cry

I think that I will not move
I'm too scared to leave my room
But I won't be defeated, oh no

What if cards don't go my way?
Then it's sure to spoil my day
But in voices loud and clear
You say to me it's only superstition
It's only your imagination
It's only your other things that you feel
And the things from which you can't escape

Keep clean for the thousandth time
Stand still and wait in line
So nobody's better than others, oh no

What if cards don't go my way?
Then it's sure to spoil my day
But in voices loud and clear
You say to me it's only superstition
It's only your imagination
It's only your other things that you feel
And the things from which you can't explain

And it's making me cry
And it's making me cry
And I'm slipping away, love
I'm slipping away

It's only superstition
Only your imagination
It's only superstition
Only superstition

when I was playing poker a lot, I was listening to Whiskeytown's Pnunemonia - and so I stole the band's name for my online name.

Last night....playing full tilt poker freeroll, I was listening to liveireland.com (cable modem = lots of streaming audio and irish music) -

until I heard a cover of Dervish doing Bob Dylan's "Boots of Spanish Leather" - it was horrible, so I grabbed a different version (Nanci Griffin w/Bob on Harmonica) - and listened to that song the last two hrs. of the tourney.

I don't go for hard rock at a poker game...I leave everclear/jane's addiction at home and look for the peaceful/sad music....

I have a CD created and I select random shuffle. I have some classic stuff on there as well as some newer tunes.

Night Ranger "sister Christian"
Warrant- "sometimes she cries" and "cherry Pie" yum yum.
Green Day "here we go"
Kid Rock "Ba wit da ba" and "Cowboy" and "American Bad Ass"

Beastie Boys "No sleep til Brooklyn!"

and a bunch of others. Keeps me aggressive keeps my mind working. I have a bunch of others as well but those are my favorites.

Every time I hear "Sister Christian" it reminds me of that coke dealer scene from the movie Boogie Nights. It always makes me laugh.
