Re(2): Stephen A. Smith-- Sigh
Every guy with a mic is picking the Suns/Spurs/Mavs to win it, the brilliance in making some crazy assed prediction is that you are a genius when you're right, and nobody remembers when you're wrong. Do you guys really think we need more sports announcers telling us they think the most talented teams are going to win it all'

Re(10): For those on NE nuts
Rings are not very indicative of a QB's ability. Do you really think Jonh Elway was a better QB in 97-98 than 83-96' Do you really think Trent Dilfer is a better QB than Dan Marino'

Re(2): EPT or College???
You basically go to college so you can have the potential to make millions over the next 20-30 years and live a comfortable retirement. Assuming you don't suck at poker (and even if you do, it's a few donkaments, anyone can win), you have the potential to make close to a million in a few months, risk free. I always laugh at people that say you need to go to college straight out of high school. If you have the desire to learn, college's aren't going anywhere. In your case, your looks will fade, your ability to travel across the world will fade, poker won't be as soft in the future, and ...

I didn't read your links but anytime you want well-thought advice on a HH, provide a detailed explanation of your thoughts on the table dynamics and player reads, and don't post the results.

Re(4): For those on NE nuts
I think it's reasonable to assume that the teams that have played NE have a lower ranked D because they played NE, NE isn't winning games because they are playing crappy D's. You absolutely cannot make a decent argument for why any team in the NFL is better than Little England, they just have too much talent, their talent is too damn talented, their coaches are too damn smart, they have too many game-breakers on offense and defense, and they have a man named Thomas Jefferson Brady.

Just slam like 2-3 40oz's or drink some NyQuill YO, 40's would take longer but would be more fun. I'd say you can expect to be asleep by 9:30 AM assuming you started drinking them at 7:30, and the Nyquill will lay you out in like 2 minutes or something.

Re(7): Channing Crowder shows why UF is known as the Harvard of the South
Yeah the London Fletcher comment was way more over the top than the London, England comment. ANyway, good interview, for his sake I hope he was joking or has a good financial adviser and life coach that he trusts completely.

Re(4): Channing Crowder shows why UF is known as the Harvard of the South
That's pretty funny, but unless he's trying to get a job with Rand McNally WGAS if he can locate London on a map, or if he's ever heard of it' A lot of people confuse knowing random little pieces of information for intelligence. If we knew that that he had indeed learned about London and was even half-ass paying attention, we could make assumptions about his intelligence level. He can defiantely read the shit out of some complex blocking schemes though. For the record I'm not a UF fan or Miami fan, I just think it's funny when people assume someone's stupid because they didn't know something ...

Re(2): Pro Players' Bankrolls
Ivey probably has the biggest poker BR of all of them. Antonius and Daniel are probably close, Helmuth's poker BR is infinate I guess since he gets his buyins paid for by UB for tourneys and doesn't really play cash, so depending on how you look at it, Helmuth is 0 or a hell of a lot. As far as straight cash in the bank homey, who knows who cares' I'll speculate anyway, Helmuth has to be #1, Ivey, Daniel and Antonius are probably pretty close. Maybe Antonius is far back because he gets no endorsement dough from an online site, and maybe Ivey is on Helmuths level because he gets mad bank from ...

Re(6): Odds of going undefeated in Fantasy Football season ...
I did it last year after I lost my #1 pick (Shaun Alexander) for basically the enitre year and my 2nd best player (Donovan Mcnabb) for the end of the season and the playoffs. This is almost definately a joke, how can you even put odds to this' How would they take into account you competition' You could be playing 7 FFL rookies that pick their favorite players. edit: Also, I wouldn't worry about Brady or Manning not playing for the last couple weeks. Home field advantage is so huge in this rivalry, the Colts know they are a big dog in N.E. and the Pats know the Colts are a lot tougher in ...

Re(5): best player
I'd say Phil Ivey meets everyones requirements for the greatest poker player of all time. He's basically the only live pro that's been able to win consistently in the biggest cash games online, his tourney game is sick, he plays all the games better than most, and he's made of money plus a huge degenerate gambler, almost the perfect recipe.

Re(2): $5 rebuy on Stars, big stack last hand before break
You can usually take overpairs out of his range based on his preflop limp into a multi-way pot. Basic logic would lead me to believe you are ahead of his range, what his range is I have no idea. Is he the kind of guy that ships 200+ BB's with top pair' Is he the kind of guy that ships 200+ BB's on a flop where he beats bottom 2 pair' This hand makes 0 sense, no great hand usually does this, no bluff usually does this, I have no clue. What's your gut feeling (read) on him'

Re(4): What's your play here? (cash game)
Well by large % of the time I don't mean 30%+, I think the villains making this play with a lot more than KcXc or QcXc. You really can't put an opponent on a better flush for the most part. The odds of them actually having it are extremely small in relation to them having top pair K/Qc, 2 pair or a set.

Re(2): What's your play here? (cash game)
heh' Calling is not bad at all, assuming we are bested by the better flush. How often do the nuts flushed shove this turn' Calling is a great way to keep the pot smaller when you think you are beat a large % of the time and can't get away from your hand. edit: also what dpottz said, you can't fold the turn if you called the flop, if he played that big of a hand that poorly I'll commend him and be happy when I float him with a marginal pair, you just got coolered if you lost, no biggie, at least it wasn't deep in a huge MTT.

Re(2): What's your play here? (cash game)
Call and take the cooler like a man, the turn shove isn't very consistent with the nuts here, despite the fact that the flop action is very consistent with the nuts or close to it. Occasionally you'll see a Q-T high flush shove here, but not any more often than you'll see an AxKc shove here, or any set or 2 pair, as well as a lot of TPMK's. Folding is probably not a good play.
