Default Re: $1500 in pennies!

I don't understand how losing $1,500 in pennies prepares you for playing higher limits. Didn't he say that gave him an edge? What a line of BS.

I would guess this guy is the Vanilla Ice of the poker world. Yo. I'm from the street. Meanwhile, he probably has a Drama degree from Yale.

I think he is saying he lost a lot of money playing penny-ante poker and to lose 1500 at that limit that is alot of hands of poker, alot of hands of poker so yeah maybe he is saying all that playing prepared him for higher limits.

It's good for the game. Would have been better if he won. I'd be filled with great joy if I sat down and someone raised in the dark.

It's no big deal. It happens quite a bit.

Well when Q7s is apparently your favorite monster hand, you need quite a few of them even at the gathering of homeless world poker championships.

They did say he was homeless for 30 years, that would mess up any body... it's amazing he is alive at all...

Try pretending to be homeless for a full 24 hours, let alone 30*365*24!

I thought he was very entertaining and gave some life to the episode. I would much rater people argue and be a maniac than watch a Razz tournament and the Crew's dumb ass.
