Re:Dealer Confusion at a Final Table
Harrah's Marina has problems with their tourneys too, although not the same. Got down to final table, everyone wants to chop, they make us go outside to discuss, come back in, they say we need to all go in on the same hand and it will be over. Someone puts their hands on MY chips to push them in and I get a little testy (been drinking a bit). We all chop even six handed but things were tense. Supposedly, I didn't push my chips in fast enough, people start complaining they want to know who won the hand etc. Never had these problems down at the Showboat. As for your situation, they ...

Re:Do you stereotype players based on there county of origin?
I never stereotype based on county EXCEPT in my home game. People from Harford County suck. If you actually meant country, I do feel that Europeans draw more and go for the bigger bluff. That said, I usually only look to see where they are from after they have outdrawn me.

Re:firsts that you get to experience over and over again...
First salt & vinegar potato chip out of an Utz bag - lips want to curl and you try to open your mouth as wide as you can to avoid getting any vinegar dust on your face First puff of the day First shirt out of the dryer, right before the wife folds all your clothes for you - it's all hot and smells sooooo good

Re:Spot in 1k i think will make for a great discussion.
Thanks for the insight from all the established players. These kinds of threads are helping me as a player - am I a player that exploits even the slightest of edges or am I a player that waits for better spots but risks not building their stack fast enough. I realize that I need to work on my ranges and some of my math. Thanks again for making me think. Wisco, I was really hoping that I would see a hidden brag that you tripled or quadrupled up on the very next hand. Maybe next time. VV

Re:Why double or nothing over simple HU SNG?
I see them as practice for satellites. Same principle.

Re:MY GF wants to be a playboy bunny for halloween...
She's young, you're young, flaunt it while you got it. According to my wife, your friends will be catty and judgmental even if she showed up as a nun. It's based on female jealousy and it will pass. Now, if your girl acts like a bitch and whore the whole night, that could be a problem. Otherwise enjoy the view. And I have had several moles removed myself and am glad to hear she has seen a professional regarding them. Your skin is not something to mess around with, you take care of it now and it will last a lifetime. Would suck if it didn't...

AP story made front page of MSN.com
Sorry, hoping this isn't a repost but I just opened my home page, , and a front page headline was "Online Poker Cheating Blamed on Employee". Also story mentioned P5 and 2+2. Pretty proud of you guys for making this happen. To be honest, I often spent time on this site just reading some poker discussion but mainly laughing at the juvenile antics in off topic. As an amateur, not even part-time woman player, I applaud the tenacity and intelligence that has been displayed. Kudos. Edit: Oops, just noticed that I was logged in under my husband's name. I am vegashobo - vegasvagrant is a male. ...

Re(7): Bodog cashouts
Having issues with Nucharge but their customer service has been very responsive. Did a regular check right before this and it took about 5 weeks but I did get the money.

Re(2): Depositing a ridiculous amount of change.
The trick is to buy small address labels, put your account number on Word and hit print. I even took the time to find transparent labels and they accepted the rolls without a comment. My wife rolled all the change I had saved over the years and when she was done, it was enough for a down payment on a house. Keep saving.

Good article yet again. For us that play at the lower levels, this is something to definitely think about and put into practice.
