Boy that hand sounds like one I seen recently... Lets if I can remember things and you tell me if that was you or not.

A younger (<35) guy came into the game in one of the low number seats like 1, 2, or 3. He had been playing a blue chip or maybe it was a white chip game and colored up to red for about 150. He was playing tight and aggressive.

There was some guy I do not see very often in seat 9 that called a PF from the younger guy, and hit a set of 2's and busted a the younger guy's QQ.

I agree most of the players, especially on the weekends, are not all that good. Most are either weak/tight nits that are easy to push around or they are some degree of LAG or another. There are likely less than 10 people that play that game on any sort of regularity that are good solid players.

The ones I love the most are the 20/40 and over players that sit the 5-150 while waiting on the long lines for a seat in their regular games, most just flat out suck and dump a buyin or two before they get their seat. You got to love people that call a PF raise from the their button with KJo and think they have the best hand all the way to the river. LOL

Felicia, I want to preorder your book. I think I love you and it is a shame that my wife doesn't let me date.

My husband won't let me date either, dangit! And we don't live quite close enough to the Utah border, either. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

The only book I'm ever apt to release was written by a friend of mine, and something that cracks me up every time I read it. Luckily, it is free for everyone to read online:

Play Poker Like the Chemos!

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

I'm okay. Not sure I'll be able to travel to Phoenix by September, but I'm getting by.

In fact, the thought of Phx now makes me feel physically ill. If I never enter the city again, that is too soon for me.

Sounds like your described it dead on. This was about 2-3 months ago. He looked maybe 30ish (I'm 22). I think about 10-15 minutes later be busted out my friend who had AK against his A5o when he 2 paired the flop. Were you there earlier when me and 2 other guys (one of them the aformentioned friend) had Aces, Kings, and Queens and two of us hit sets on the flop. There must have been over $1k in that pot. I would've taken that whole pot if I had more than $130.

That's the one I want. I read the promo on your blog.

LOL, that isn't a real book. I just sent Bill some pics and he played around with photoshop and came up with that. It's a joke.

Ted would never let me turn that into a book (nor would I even think about it). Believe me, it was just meant to be funny. I hope you enjoyed it.

I was playing along with the joke.

Anybody that can maintain your attitude while ill deserves to be well loved.

Games at Casino Arizona are great. I haven't played at Fort McDowell. In general, the games are not as good in the summer as they are in the winter months. From November to March, the games are spectacularly good, especially on weekends. There are many very bad retirement age folks who play in the afternoons and early evenings at the lower limits and many very bad professional folks who play in the mid limits on the weekend evenings.
