Anyone know if there are boxsets of the Banged Up Abroad first 5 series?

Haven't seen them since their original runs, and would like to recall them.

Great show

**72over** · 23-10-10, 01:44

After sweating my flatmate through 3 $50 6man SnG's, I think I've finally uncovered the secrets into how a maniac fish thinks.

When bluffing: bet pot
When have bottom or 2nd pair on flop: bet pot
When have top pair: check down and min bet riv or bet pot if an over-card comes
When in doubt: bet pot
When have the nuts: check till river and min v bet

It's all so clear now

Boyles $1k added tourney:
Stacks : Hero 3,700(mp2) , Villain 5,600 (btn)

I raise to 140 with Kd7d
Btn rr to 360 and i call

Flop is 2s Jh 8h , i chk raise his bet of 390 to 960 and he flats .

Turn is a 3c and i shove for 2,400 and he snaps with Ad Ts

Qh on the river and i am out .

My image up to here would have been fairly tight as i hadnt turned over a worse hand than AQ before this and 4 hands previous i had taken a 4.5k hit to my stack with QQ v 77 where the board read KK327 , i had rr pre in position and bet 2 streets and called his river shove.

are you serious or is this some kind of advanced level that you have sucked a load of lads into?

edit -sorry didnt see you shoved. wow thats tilting for villain

They completely own him. Its actually strange looking back at the Daniel Negreanu at the start of high stakes poker and the Daniel Negreanu now. 2 completely different people. His body language is so negative when hes in a pot now.

I don't think he gets completely owned, but it's obvious he's struggling to adjust. More than that, I think he's struggling to find the motivation to continue. He's already made his money and written his book, and think he'd be perfectly happy sitting in the commentary box for the next 20 years.

He just keeps putting himself in these really tricky, marginal spots by playing so many rags pre and floating every flop. I think if I was playing with him I'd check-raise the turn every single hand.

Every time he gets himself into a spot he seems to toss a coin on whether to continue or fold. He certainly isn't thinking about it on the same level as the likes of Mercier. I think he has the ability to catch up, though. He seems to be trying.

Speaking of Mercier, I'm not gay but I have a massive mancrush on him and wouldn't mind fathering his manbabies.

The one old-timer I've been really impressed with on the show is the true legend, Doyle Brunson. He plays so solid that he's really hard to exploit, and everyone knows it.

**Lord Sir Banter** · 23-10-10, 03:33

Bad idea if he still plays like High Stakes. He'd tell that he knows he's beat, what can you have, sickest thing ever and then 'pay you off', and you'd be bluffing.

well I think dicaprio is excellent if you're talking about more recent actors anyway.
viggo mortenson too of course.

also I know you're exaggerating when you say there are barely any actors about, because I couldn't disagree more. it just happens that certain actors are more suited to certain roles like tommy lee jones is an excellent us marshall but he is not really a us marshall btw

No,but his father was a US Marshall and Jones lives on a ranch so not a million miles from most of his characters.

I'd expect a big number on this, what's the over/under?

Yeah I'd be definitely looking at 30+ I think. If I was in McDonalds I'd normally have a large Big Mac Meal with 9 nuggets, so if I removed the burger, fries & especially the large coke I reckon I could treble the number of nuggets handy enough.

I'd be sick as a dog for the next couple of days though!

I like the unders

Someone figured out in the 1960s that meat processors can eek out a few more percent of profit from chickens, turkeys, pigs, and cows by scraping the bones 100% clean of meat. This is done by machines, not humans, by passing bones leftover after the initial cutting through a high pressure sieve. The paste you see in the picture above is the result.

There's more: because it's crawling with bacteria, it will be washed with ammonia... Then, because it tastes gross, it will be reflavored artificially. Then, because it is weirdly pink, it will be dyed with artificial color.

**TommyGunne** · 23-10-10, 10:41

Jesus that chicken nugget prop bet is bordering on a health hazard. You'll probably be ingesting a weeks worth of saturated fat in half an hour.

Ian Holloway is an absolute nutter. He's incredibly entertaining.

Also, as someone who worked beside MacDonald's and shared a service entrance with one for 2.5 years, I can safely say that there is nothing on their menu that doesn't taste of "MacDonalds". The scent sticks in your nostrils for hours after work.
Everything tastes the exact same, Fast Food Nation and Not on the Label were two great books I read on the food they serve (doesn't completely apply to Irish franchises obviously).

I suggest your signature quote should change to Gorge Box

seems doable but so does walking to Naas in the middle of the N7

**Bodybuilder** · 23-10-10, 12:09

Does anyone actually LIKE McDonald's??

I think it is probably the most disgusting food known to man. Had a McTasty with Bacon meal for lunch Wednesday, I don't know WTF I was thinking, had to force the disgusting burger down my throat, and was sick for the rest of the day.

**Emmet** · 23-10-10, 12:10

Everton Spurs could be a cracker!

1-1 already, Baines with an excellent free kick, and then VdV punishes very bad mistake from Howard.

My ex was a vegetarian, and she loved MacDonalds...

An old woman, that's scary and sad stuff when you think that someone like that would just randomly attack another woman just because she was wearing a head scarf.

Some people laugh when I say that my favourite actor is John Turturro as any film the majority of people have seen him in, he is not the lead or only doing a cameo. Yet he always manages to steal the show as soon as he is on screen.
