"Official" Live at the Bike thread (12/13) (300/500 NL)

Use the archives to save yourself.... I admit you might not be as bad as Tuchman is playing tonight, but get off your ass and get into the game now. Heck Tuchman will spot you a grand and still come out ahead.

Get in the game chicken....

Bart can you give me the dates in archive when you and/or Shirley played?

Bart, you sound like you're barely suppressing your glee/laughter as you read these emails and posts that bash Tuchman.


is this finally your time to step out of Tuch's shadow and become L@tb's golden boy announcer?

Here's what I would guess is going on:

Dave has always been somewhat dismissive (at least implicitly) of players who read and take seriously poker books. Nothing would give him more pleasure therefore than to beat a table full of 2+2'ers, who are the example par excellence of "book players".

Therefore I think he is trying to amass chips by getting lucky playing trash. If he wins big, he gets to claim superiority over "book players", that he schooled a bunch of weak tight 2+2'ers. If he loses, he can just claim he was screwing around to be entertaining and wasn't taking it seriously. Either way, he can still go on thinking that poker books are a waste of time, and that those who read them are inferior.

Really what he is doing, is proving the opposite. Way to go, Tuck.

Doesn't Tuchman claim his regular game is 80/160? The buy-in here is barely over 3BB to that game so if that is indeed true I think it's possible he's just donking it up with the 2+2ers for fun.

I'm done watching Tuchman take continuous stabs at multi-way pots with garbage. I'm more entertained by Poker-Babes.com and the awesome gallery of Shirley and her gorgeous cleavage that seems to sneak into every pose. I don't think I would ever attempt to steal a pot from her if I saw that sitting across the table from me.
