post your best and worst sports moments ITT
Best: Sinking a 15 ft downhill putt on the 18th hole in the Jr. Club Championship to force a playoff while having the entire club watching from the terrace because we were the last group to get in before the award ceremonies for all the Club flights. Then walking down the first playoff hole and seeing mobs of people hoping into golf carts and walking down with to watch the completion. Worst: I cant remember because I erased 2004 from my memory.

What you remember about online poker
Favorite Online Poker Memory: Bodog in and a little after it's prime. Least Favorite Online Poker memory: sitting at 5/10 PLO before knowing how to play and losing 80% of my roll in 30 mins and making it all back and some more 1 hr later and learning a valuable life lesson. All time favorite MTT: Bodog 12r back in the day. Best things you did with your poker money: Eating and drinking like a king. Worst things you did with your poker money: Not being nitty enough out side of my poker roll. Funny how these things work. Favorite everyday feeling you might get from poker: ...

Cashout allowed for US ps ftp
very much this. if you can avoid emailing, do that and if you can also avoid requesting a cash out also do this. these things take time and will probably take longer if they keep getting drowned in emails and cash out requests that they can't make at the moment.

I just tried to cash in mine using the "VIP Reward Bonus" for cash and it didn't work. Guessing fpp's are useless'' Really sucks if they are. Hopefully it's just that they haven't yet lifted the restriction to use them again.

Negative balance on Poker Stars.... what to do?
I wouldn't just let it go and ignore it. I would at least make a few attempts to try and clear it up even tho it is only $37. Who knows what kind of lame thing could come of this in the future so its probably best to just try and take care of it now. PS will know what they will want you to do.

Former Poker Players on the Job Hunt?
ok.. So my step mom is in the cosmetic industry and a few years back launched a cosmetic division of a large company (we'll call it "company A". This was a rather large step in her career. Fast forward to a few months ago (now shes with a different cosmetic company), she was on a large conference call, 10 people from her office and 10 or so at the other company. Now one of the employees at the other company started off his pitch by stating all of his previous accomplishments (he was tying to get his product in the stores where my step mom now works) and he starts listing off things on his ...

Former Poker Players on the Job Hunt?
Putting poker on your resume isn't that bad of an idea. You just need to state all the skills that you learned and were able to excel at. If hiring managers cant understand the fact that in todays age where money can be many via internet in many different fashions then it's their loss. Also, w/e you do DO NOT lie on on your resume. I've seen it come back to seriously bite people in the ass a lot more then ever mentioning that you were self sufficient for 3 years playing online poker. I have a good story about some one who lied about previous work accomplishments and got slammed hard but ...

Chicago Public Golf
Cog Hill for sure. Being a 3 handicap I would try and save up a little and get on Dubsdread. Gets zero play b/c its so hard and it always in good condition b/c its hosts the BMW at the end of the year. Also in the same direction just not as far is Bolingbrook GC. Maybe $50 for a round. Its nothing spectacular but certainly worth it for the money. (I think, been a while since I have played there) and I'll throw Cantginy in there. Its a 3 nine hole facility. Maybe a tad out of your range but also worth it. ~$90 for 18

Discussion Thread for Petition to Change Sunday Million Structure
I say keep it. This mtt brings in a lot of new people each week, especially yesterday. IDK about you guys but I had at least one person at each of my milly tables that was playing their first mtt on stars. If a tourney can bring in this many people to deposit $215 then so be it. Changing the structure could have a reverse effect on this (fish are going to deposit regardless, I know, but not if the structure becomes impossible for them) and personally I'd rather have people keep depositing. Plenty of other tournies with better structures to play. I would be in favor of changing the ...

Backing and Staking Discussion
then why would any one want to sell action' Find a backer and play with make up for 50% or play with out make up and sell all your action for 5-10%' Is giving up 40% really worth it for no make up' From a business point of view I just don't see it. And Drinking Buddy.. I was just laying out those numbers as a starting point. I've always been able to negotiate a higher % b/c of the no make up factor. "the absolute most i would pay if i was you is 1.2 so that would look like you pay 756 for 42% other person pays 756 for 42% horse gets 16% and 3/5 of a lapper" I guess this makes sense to ...

Backing and Staking Discussion
so you guys are saying he sells 50% to two different people who both receive 50%.. then what does that leave the horse'' lol This is the formula I have always used, unless agreements are made to change up percentage for various reasons. Horse plays for 50% (like a typical staking deal) leaving 50% out there. If horse sells two 50% shares (the entire buy in) that leaves each buyer with 25% of the winnings... Buyer1(25%)+Buyer2(25%)+Horse(50%)=100% Following the formula from the other responses would mean that selling action is a terrible idea. I would always buy and never never never ...
