Done with poker!
I realize know one really cares, but it makes me feel better to announce this publicly. I just can't handle it anymore. I also feel I can devote the energy needed to play poker on more important things. I wish everyone the best of luck in both poker and life! I leave you with this quote: "The ultimate measure of a person is not where they stand in moments of comfort and convenience, but where they stand in times of challenge and controversy." -MLK

Poker and MMA
OK i see what you mean. They are both individual pursuits, whereas coaching and sharing knowledge is a given team sports. But, I still think other sports, especially golf, can be compared in the same way.

I don't mean to be a buzzkill, but given what you said, can't poker be compared to any sport'

My biggest score doesn't count?
I achieved my biggest score on Pokerstars on Tuesday night, but it still hasn't been counted here. I know it takes up to three days, but I've never seen it take that long. This is really tiliting me!!

Unless you have a hidden webcam in every online player's house directed squarely at their face, your reading skills are limited in online poker. Gl tho!

Matt Affleck - Give the man credit
Because these guys play to win tourneys' Not get 4th. Yes i'm sure 4th place is like 3 mill +, but the difference between 3 mill and 9 mill is pretty huge imo. 3 mill you got a good roll for the rest of your life (or should) while 9 mill means you can quit playing poker to make money and do it just for fun. The guy was playing to win and got f'd in the a. Simple as that.

Traded to NEUBY about an hour ago, still waiting for him to complete the deal: $250 PS for $250 UB EDIT: Trade complete! UB was a little slow completing the transfer, but no problems other than that.

Quick question about poker and taxes...
Thanks. I've probably screwed myself by cashing out way to often this year- and then putting some of that money back in everytime. O well.

Quick question about poker and taxes...
I know there are articles devoted to this topic, but I just have one question: Do you pay taxes based on your winnings, or your profit' Thanks.

16K KO, early stages..WWYD
What kind of history do they both have' Gusano's minraise says he wants action behind- hopefully from the bigger stack 'hatchattack'. So, you might be right to narrow his range QQ+. On the other hand, if he has been playing very aggressively, his range is obviously much wider. Obviously, with 28 BBs left, it's push or fold imo. If I were you, I would push, and if I was wrong o well start another tourney. Tough spot though for sure.

Is this going to end up putting me in a bad situation?
It is pretty naive to think that when friends play together, they are going colluding.

Cereus Down?
I remember this happened about a year ago. They had massive power outages where their servers are located. I'm guessing the same sort of thing is happening again.
