I would also likely trade an RP for an SP in survivor if there's interest. I'm currently holding two closers that are doing well so far (Janssen and Gregg), one who's probably soon going to be closer and will probably be top 5 after he gets the job (Kenley Jansen) and also one of the most valuable setup men in David Robertson. Depending on which player we're talking about, I'd look at deals for top 50-60 SP's.

who thinks its ridiculous that its now may '13 and US folks still cant get back on PS
I recommend everyone follow Rich Muny's lead in the daily action plans he posts here on the site. If you emailed your Rep and said something like "GIMME BACK STARS IDIOT LOL" it's not going to have much effect. Use the resources you have here on the P5s forums in Rich and the PPA to send coordinated messages that can have a real effect

Meh, they'll be back at some point. But they may not always be the best. Party was the best before the UIGEA. Things change. Keep an open mind and you'll find something good eventually :)

Is this how Phil Ivey won at the UK casino - hope not!
Point taken, and I think you guys are right upon thinking about this more... It is the casino's responsibility to deal with their own game security issues, as they are the ones hosting the game. It's not the same as a player vs. player issue in poker where a 3rd party (such as casino or gaming site) is responsible for hosting and securing the game. I have quite a bit less sympathy for Ivey than I think some others do who are posting on this - we're still essentially talking about a grift. But I definitely don't have sympathy for the casino and agree 100% that they should and probably ...

Probably. I mean where do you draw the line between professional gambler and professional grifter' It's one thing to beat someone at a game where you both understand exactly what the rules are and are following them entirely. It's another thing to take their money because the game is something different than the other party thought it was

Some really big, new information about the UB scandal. There's a full video and a 10 minute highlight video. In this, Russ Hamilton is recorded with some other UB execs discussing how to cover up the cheating, who was involved, etc. Here are the highlights: Full audio is about 3 hours long:

Cool. Getting tix is super easy. The trick though is to go on stubhub or whatever early the morning of the game or late the night before. Day of the game sometime in the morning, scalpers buy up (or remove their own listings for) basically all the best tix on secondary market sites and then resell for $10-15 more per ticket at the stadium. I learned this through some trial and error last season...went to about 10 games last year and made some mistakes along the way that cost me a little extra. That weekend's great for me, glad that's the one. Let's catch up when it's coming up

This is pretty much what I thought. What are the odds that you somehow are worse than at least 11 other teams for almost 3 more weeks starting today but are still no more than 78 points worse than Mkind and no more than 122 points worse than kk, etc. etc. That would be like drawing a straight flush on a random 5-card poker hand

Don't Listen to Phil Hellmuth
I read this back around 2003 or 2004, I'm sure it was one of the first 2 or 3 books on poker I read. I think it's extremely elementary and wouldn't help anyone much on its own in today's games. What I will say positive is that it's a good starter book for someone who's either a complete beginner or who has only played in home games and never been to a real poker game against mostly strangers and with a real amount of money on the line. This book isn't going to make anyone any money, but it might keep losses to a minimum the first few times in the casino. It can also put someone in the ...

P5's face lift?
Right, a lot of people disregard forum options and a lot use them. I'm a fan of the 100 post per page view on some forums, and we wanted to have that on P5s when we moved the forums to vBulletin in 2010. Since that site rebuild, the company has completely changed ownership. None of the people who were principally involved in that project are still with the company, so I can't say for sure why the options didn't get put in. I believe, however, that the issue was with the custom forum code, and that it was decided to always have 30 posts per page would be the best option. Anyway, we'll ...

P5's face lift?
We have a lot of custom code in the forums which makes it a little more complicated to have this option. I'm going to revisit it though and see what it'd take to implement. I'm also a fan of these options

Yeah, I've got faith in him and really last week was a bit of an aberration because my best SP so far didn't get a start the whole week. Hopefully that'll be back to normal soon. J Shields is trying to single handedly get me back to respectability right now
