Re: How was my play: \'Was this a hold up attempt\'?
I cannot believe you drove three drunk guys with a knife somewhere. It is quite amazing you are still alive. You Sir are a criminal's dream date.

Don't work on your car in the street in a seedy neighborhood.
That snide-assed comment out of the way, get yourself extracated from the car, that way if it goes down, you're in a position to defend yourself. End results: They offered you a beer after chatting you up. You drank it with them and learned a valuable life lesson. |

Re: How was my play: \'Was this a hold up attempt\'?
i'll grant that you had to act quickly and were under duress to some extent. that said, I still think this was misplayed on every street (specifically the one where your car was parked)
what kind of neighborhood is this that you were installing your stereo (presumably) in the middle of the day and some punks walk up with a knife? I think letting them into your car was a bad idea. giving them your phone, while something I also wouldn't do, was probably an ok play. I guess once you're confined to the car you wouldn't want one of them to start slashing at you. I'd like to know more about the neighborhood though, if you don't mind divulging |

Re: How was my play: \'Was this a hold up attempt\'?
perfectly typical suburban territory.
South East East of Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. Low crime rate, mostly middle class families. These bums, as I said, where from a town over, which is feeling the effects of the bush administaration worse then ours. Only other encounters I've had in this area were typical growing up in grade school type of fights. The cops used to harass us weekly for being too loud as we sat out BSing with each other, so, it's pretty slow crime wise. It was a very unusual situation. I definately agree though, I should have folded preflop and just beat it, but my car was open and all my relatively expensive stereo equipment was just laying there. I thought slightly about raising the flop and trying to knock them down before we got in the car, but I just check called the whole way. it was loose, I know (Sorry, but I love the fact that the card game references really rub some people the wrong way) |

Im sorry, you may not be a complete moron normally, but giving these guys a ride is one of the dumbest things I have ever heard.

You should have folded pre-flop.

Re: How was my play: \'Was this a hold up attempt\'?
usually I would agree, but I already posted the big blind...
During and after the situation, except for the first 15 seconds after I first saw the knife, I felt never felt like I didn't have control over the situation. The small crow bar I keep under my seat was also a a bit of comfort. I didn't want to leave the table with about 175 BB sitting there. |

Re: How was my play: \'Was this a hold up attempt\'?
I'm sorry to say it but you fkn retarded. Rule 1 if some [censored] is going down get away. IE oh you need $5 hold on, let em go in the house and get it. Run inside and:
(A) Grab a gun/bat/tazer/kitchen knife, (B) Call 911 and lock the door (C) Both of the previous. If you can't seem to get away then what do you have around you: (A) SCREWDRIVER (B) Pliers (C)If your like me you keep a 3 or 4 cell maglight under or behind your seat within reach. (D) Other tool you were using that could do serious damage to the eyes/crotch of said retards Knife cuts are rarely fatal unless the underside of you arm, inside of the leg , or neck. Use the top of you arms to block slices and stabs as they won't do a ton of damage. The worst thing you could do? "Sure I'm a tard, i'm give you a ride!" Think about this: These guys carjack/mug/kill people from time to time. They decide to kill you and take your car. They are drunk and don't feel like driving. So they ask you to drive them. They call up a friend who works a chop shop in his garage and the "yeah"s are I'm on the way with a car clear out the garage. They pull up one in the back grabs your head and slices you neck. You are unconsious after about 15-25 seconds and dead in around a minute. They push your body over and drive into the garage. You get dug up 15 years later when the new owners are trying to install a pool! Congratz your a tard [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

Re: How was my play: \'Was this a hold up attempt\'?
My wife likes to watch these horrible crime documentaries on A&E and court TV. I can almost hear the Keith David voice over now...
[ QUOTE ] Port Vue, Pennsylvania An ideal suburban community. A small town of nice houses, nice schools and nice neighbors. Or it was, until the summer of 2005 when a string of terrible crimes and a six-pack of Beast turned a model citizen into a cleaved corpse and left the idyllic town shattered by the terrifying knowledge that a killer was among them.
