I thought the same, but no fd on the board.

Also the latest Modern Family (US) is very funny IMO.

Doesn't matter he's not gonna win the hi with a pair of 7's, and so he's hoping to split the 3k in the pot by calling 2x it. If the other guy has A2 as well then he gets quartered.

You got the most from that imo, expect to be up against a lo draw. Pump it in PF to be sure...

Starting hands good?

I presume you know you won the low with your A6 compared to him not having a qualifying Low??

[oleras]

Doesn't matter he's not gonna win the hi with a pair of 7's, and so he's hoping to split the 3k in the pot by calling 2x it. If the other guy has A2 as well then he gets quartered.

Sb has Q 10 imo, willing to call and split it.

[Emmet]

I presume you know you won the low with your A6 compared to him not having a qualifying Low??

yup, just about.

A nice runner runner basically.

with 12bbs left, I should be shoving any A2xx A3xx 23xx hands?

Yeah he's my favourite character and yeah it's not getting love rom all sides and alot of people don't like it (BBV is largely negative towards it IIRC) so obviously it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I think it's a great show.

Has anyone else been watching the first 3 episodes of Spartacus:
[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHxn8mTpAJU[/ame]

[Emmet]

Ah well, busted there by AKK2 when I shoved JJ23.

I will definitely be playing that tournament nightly. I was 40 places off the money in a 800+ player tournament in a game I was utterly confused by.

Seen the first 2, like it, in a hope it get "Romeish" kind of way.

Love Modern Family, fantastic light easy watch 22 mins, should be on 7 days a week so people could start their day with it and walk out of the house with a smile on their faces !

[Ste05]

I'm VERY rusty on poker strategy especially NL omaha hi/lo MTT's but I'd presume yeah any good A2xx and also certainly any AAxx (with a semi-decent low draw) the thing to remember when shipping PF is you certainly want a chance to win a low pot, but also that there may not be a lo possible so you always need something with Hi potential

/cryptic semi crap advice

[Ste05]

Seen the first 2, like it, in a hope it get "Romeish" kind of way.

The third one is out, I was hoping for the same Rome type show, but I fear it'll never even come close to it, I'll keep watching it though cos I loved Gladiator, 300 and Rome, and since it's basically just a rip off of all 3 it's something I can get behind.

I do like the way they're starting to touch on the back stories of some of the other gladiators though, so IMO it does have some potential.

So, you have never shipped/called A2 on a 78K board ?

edit, forget about the 9 10 kickers, pure lo call

Well done, for next time though hands like JJ23 are really rubbish and should only be pushed if in LP and you're short.

It is a fun game though...

was on BTN with 11bbs, I thought it was an ok shove. BB called.

Its not my first time playing Hi/Lo, its just my first time trying to figure out what was actually happening.

I drunkenly played a tournament in it the other week, thinking it was PLO. I got really annoyed at Pokerstars and almost sent them an e-mail when some retard split a pot with me when he had sweet fuck all.

Then I realised I'd regged for the wrong tournament...

F*ckin hell, Alien 3 is dire compared oto the first 2!

The CGI is really dodgy in places too.

FCUKIN BULLSHIT!!!!!!

I decide to play a game.

Play a 10 man SnG, get to Heads-Up with a 4-1 chip defecit. Pull it back me having a slight lead.

I have 8,8. Flop comes K,8,8.

I check

Guy goes All-In.

I call..........................


and as i call, the chips move to the middle but the screen freezes...... it freezes for a while and when it comes back i had FOLDED and i was in SIT OUT mode.

WHAT THE FCUK IS THAT???

So the guy wins my chips and in the long run wins the game. WHAT THE FCUK???

You times out cos your conection went.
Try support, but the HH will probab show a fold.

however, you might get something as you were obviously never folding

to show my ignorance.

He has no low hand, so can't win that half

Yeah, but they had a deal to pay a bonus if you win with 72

Its a load of bollocks because the chips moved on the screen, and it cam eback JUST as the time ran out like. I can take a beat, but that's balls!

[Guest]

So you'd rather see 100s of people out of a job and thousands of die hard fans lose the club they love just so Liverpool might have a half chance of finishing in the top 4? What the fuck is wrong with people.

True. Never thought about the jobs people would lose etc and the fact it might affect families.

I take back what i said so.

[Mellor]

I know, its a balls.
Happen to be before (not with quads though),
the button "pressed" on screen, chips moved, then it froze.

As you had quads and were the leader so obvious would of won the tourney, you have a better chance of getting something, maybe a tourney token or something, better than diddley

[eagle eye]

Because i don't give a toss about them and it will help my club. It's a dog eat dog world in football these days. If you fall behind your left behind!

Fingers crossed Popmpey get thrown out of the league. Things would look great for Liverpool then compared to now once other teams results against Pompey where takin away. We would only be 11 points behind chelsea. Man city would still have 2 games in hand but be 6 points behind and we would be 4 points clear of anyone else and only 1 or 2 behind Arsenal.

If that happens to Liverpool then ill deal with it and be disgusted as to why the people in charge let it happen. As for this case. Pompey has never did anything for me or you so why should we care?

And yet you say it's a beautiful sound

I had to google what you said but i am not that way at all. It will be helping my club if they shut down therefore i want them to shut down. Big deal.

So you are saying i would do the same in a person on person situation? Spoken kinda like a lawyor who just looks at whats in front of him and never considers the actual person.

Back in my football days when i was selected for a county milk cup squad to go to the canary islands it was between me and one other guy, for who got the last place to go. He got it and i felt no hatred. The week after the manager called me to his office and actually was quite harsh towards my play telling me all my faults, trying to get a reaction. At the end of it he said he spoke harsh to me because he wanted to see if i would start slating the other guy and see what my attitude was like. He then told me that the player had got injured and that i was going.

If i was the type of person your saying i am, then i would have bad mouthed that player and hated him for getting my spot. Not sure why i even responded to you as you have no idea who i am or what i am like.

You are the new king of the BBV imo. Absolutely classic stuff. I highlighted some bits that just had me falling over laughing like the smiley there.

I reckon you were Stavros.

[cardshark202]

Lol you "never thought". You are an IDIOT, lets be honest.
You've probably embarrassed yourself about 15 times in your last 7 posts.

I went to see the film last night and it was a bit meh but fook me this is a great poem.........

Invictus

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

Yeah was only discussing that poem last night, had to pause the TV as it was read out to me. We have this poem on our wall at home, incorrectly it had Mandelas name as the author (Marianne Williamson) He did have some good taste in poetry.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves,
Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”


RIP Zito.

There's a full collection here that you can print out. Some people are really offended by them though. Snobs.

As a fan you should never want to see a club go into administration or whatever. How can you say Pompey never did anything for you, they, just like every other team, are what makes the Premiership. Without the pompeys of this world there would be no prem, sky sports etc etc.

I remember a game a few seasons back - Pompey were 5-0 down, at home, to Arsenal and their fans were cheering and clapping the Arsenal players passing and movement etc. Wenger came out afterwards and said he had never seen anything like it, that the Pompey fans were amongst the best he has ever come across.

You gotta feel for the fans when you see what the club is going through nowadays.

Yeah, it's like Garage flowers are not really considered as proper flowers by some wimmins. At a dinner part (this one time) I was discussing how I used to bring home the odd bunch of flowers, when buying some petrol I might buy an 8 euro bunch and spring em on herself when I got home, always appreciated. However one or two of the girlies at this party said they'd throw 'garage flowers' in the bin as they were cheapo flowers. WTF sez I , you were getting none in the 1st place, so it's a surprise, why would you be so ungrateful? The wimmins seemed in agreement (bar 1 or 2) that garage flowers were an affront on womankind and any man who bought some for his girl was In fact offering up the most underhanded insult and lack of respect. It was then I took out my nipple (I do this when I get bored) and threatened them with it. I will buy those Tesco Valentine cards and send one to a certain lady. (muhahahaha)

[AdMMM]

Jaysus, I thought they only ever had those things there to absorb the smell of petrol?!

[ArmaniJeans]

I don't think its that unusual for a Liverpool fan (or fan of any other club who would benefit) to have a secret wish for Portsmouth to go out of business.

Its warped obviously, but its akin to secretly daydreaming that the boyfriend of that girl you fancy has a fatal car accident, freeing the way for yourself to make a move at the funeral.

Both should remain an internal fantasy, definitely not to be discussed out loud.

[Raoul Duke III]

How did Mr Raoul Duke III do in the acquarium last night?

7th, never really got a workable stack together

enjoyable game though, did deliver one delicious dogging with JT vs JJ AIPF, coat was on until I picked up 4 flush possibilities on the turn and bling blang blaow the river duly delivered. I thought he was going to cry.

On a similar note, FT was going a bit slowly, playing about 40 mins with no casualties so Jack subbed in rigged dealer David to induce action.

Within 10 minutes, JJ was no good against AJo on a J high flop (runner-runner 4-flush), KJ > AJ AIPF to bust Tadgh and I exited soon after when my Ace high couldn't hold vs KJ. Carnage!

NTL. Boyles actually went down at the same time making me think it was my connection but stars was still fine. I've been able to log back on to FTP but there is a note on the my mtt sat table stating "The Tournament has been paused" for the last 10 mins and others are wondering wft in chat so I presume they'll sort it soon.
