  1. fuuuuuuck, what a beat. I've definitely played A4 like it was AA more than once.
  2. Junior sucks, it is known. The Woody Allen impersonation by Sirois should've won the ebrake.
  3. I’ll trade you 2 bandits for a mother witch...
  4. We’re not going to carry this over?!?
  5. I really liked what Johnson was bringing when he was forced into the rotation cause 5 of the rotation guys were out with covid. Looks like he's not getting any burn anymore though. Can always use more shooting.
  6. Dylan was great, but Junior and George need to be 'ok boomer'd' after trying to discuss the whole Jane Slater Twitter intern blow up yesterday.

  8. I'll never forget back in back when I finally had a roll to play the 2/5NL at the local casino, almost 20 years ago. I had been playing there over a year and knew all the characters. I had taken a few shots but usually just grinded out 1/2. First week this 'kid' shows up that everyone starts eventually calling Richie Rich. I say, kid, he's older than I am but still younger than 80% of the room. Biggest game was 2/5 and he asks to buy in for 25k. That was against house rules, but after a long discussion with the room manager, they open another table playing 10/25 and the kid goes around begging for action. A couple of regs sit down with him and he proceeds to play about 75/40/5 with a 3! around 33%. Now, he wasn't a total whale, he knew how to play, but he was there for the juice, no doubt. He actually coolers one of the regs in first two orbits, and wins $5k. He plays there all day short handed with whomever will sit with him, crazy ass swings up and down. That was way above my bankroll, even though I seriously considered buying in for half my roll. Eventually thought better of it, and went home. I get a text from one of waitress I'm friends with and she says Richie is pulling an all nighter and sitting with 10k at 2/5. I get a ton of money together (like I'm going to the Taj) and head up there. And I get a seat a couple of seats to his left. I play tight mostly, just waiting for a spot. And then it happens. The details aren't real important, just needless to say I FIST BUMP SNAP CALLED SHOVE MY CHIPS IN THE MIDDLE HELLMUTH STYLE when I heard him say all in with his 5bet. I had JJ. And 500bbs in the middle. It doesn't matter what he had, I was so far ahead of his range. He obviously won the hand cause shits rigged yo. I was so sick to my stomach I had to leave (and I had no rebuy obv). It took a few days before I could look at cards again. If that shit happens today I just shrug it off and make sure I can rebuy to stay in the juicy game. It would still hurt, but you play cards long enough you lose your emotions/soul.
  9. The 'both teams wearing dark jerseys' thing has been happening a ton this year, at least during Mavs games. And it's so fucking annoying. I don't understand how they they that shit happen.
  10. KP playing tonight. Kyrie out. Hope it's a fun one. edit: I forgot KD is out though. That sucks.
  11. Good fucking god. Luka took the ball out with 9 seconds left at the other baseline. Sorry we didn't have time to run four high across-slug-motion left. Everyone hates on all the iso shit cause it can be boring, but y'all do realize that a Luka isolation (ESPECIALLY if the defense is switching all screens) has a higher expected PPP than ANYTHING ELSE THE MAVS COULD POSSIBLY RUN. That's why so many team instantly double. And that's fine cause Luka is going to find the open man who is going to get a wide open look.
