Re: How dare you call me (low content)
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] If I could teach the masses one thing that would make my life as a poker player much easier it is that 99, 77, A4, A2s, KT, AJ, etc. are NOT trapping hands. If you think they are that great, raise them, go all-in with them late, it will make my life easier when I pull a Van Sexton, or any other fancy move I know to make people lay down hands that they don't really like. FE is everything people. If it's that good, protect it! [/ QUOTE ] The big blind had yet to act and thus can hardly be accused of slowplaying with 99. [/ QUOTE ] I'm interested in finding out who's right here. Fold the 99 or call?

Re: How dare you call me (low content)
You are right (as always). I didn't read the OP closely enough.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] /me rubs nipples I love play pokah. pokah is nice. [/ QUOTE ] i keep hearing this crap lately. what piece of cultural detritus spawned this? [/ QUOTE ] In last years PLO final table at the WSOP, Chiau Gang (sp?) stood up from the table at some point (I can't remember the details of the hand, but I believe he was all in on a huge draw against Williamson's made hand). He massaged both nipples and uttered the very insightful statement in question after hitting his draw. I finally managed to catch a rerun of this episode yesterday afternoon, and it's a pretty damn funny sight. [/ QUOTE ] I had this on my tivo for about four months until we had a f-ing blackout and my tivo shorted out, erasing everything that was on it. losing this, along with the last 2 minutes of a lakers championship game, almost made me cry. your recap of the episode almost made me feel complete again. ty, ts-

It's a call if he knew my reputation. I don't remember how I'd been playing up until this point, though I had managed to blast off 35% of my chips. He did use almost his whole time bank thinking about this, so it was a tough decision for him. This made it even more amusing to me for some reason.

Re: How dare you call me (low content)
[ QUOTE ]
Isn't this guy aware that I patented this push? IC5 had just come over to observe this game, and I felt obligated to make the pointless level 3 move that I've become almost famous for. [/ QUOTE ] First of all, nh. I have yet to win with a PVS when I get called, so it's nice to see that it can happen. Fortunately, I rarely get called. Secondly, what do you mean "almost famous?" When I teach students about SNGs, I use certain "Key Concepts." I had to go back and name one of them after you following your level 3 thread. I haven't even named one of them after myself yet... so you're totally famous as far as I'm concerned. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] So, Phil, since i'm doing my part to make you famous around these parts, maybe you can help me out. From now on, I would like you to refer to a 40+ buy-in drop as an "Irieguy." Irieguy

/me rubs nipples I love play pokah. pokah is nice. [/ QUOTE ] This is backwards. The correct version flows better: *rubbing nipples* "Pokah's nice...I love play pokah" His tone makes it even more enjoyable...

irie, did u drop 40 at the $50's or $100's? [/ QUOTE ] Fortunately, I was just kidding. But I got close to 40 in my current batch at the $109's. I'm still doing better in $/SNG than at the $33's... but it's closer than I was hoping it would be (though I haven't even played 500 yet... so who knows.) Irieguy

Irieguy [/ QUOTE ] I had been referring to it as "That which we shall not speak of", but I've made a note of the name change. I did have about a 40 buyin drop in bankroll about 2 weeks ago, but I refer to that as the "IRS."
