  1. Yeah it's just a bluff catcher. I've never had much success calling pre-flop 3-bets out of position with pocket queens.
  2. Well it's probably not a good idea to take medical advice from a pharmacist.
  3. I've had what, five or six shots now. When will I begin to experience adverse effects?
  4. WARNING: Old raw video has surfaced of Kristi Noem's hunting trip:
  5. The "gray area" is pretend. All of these rooms are illegal, as the statutes are currently written.
  6. I played a hand last night that has me thinking this morning. I'll try to keep this short. $1/$2 NLH home game while watching the fight. Villain is effective stack with $210. 9-handed. This is a group I've played with for years, and I know the villain to be a LAG who likes to bluff, but he almost never overbets. Anyway, UTG+1 open limps, I raise to $8 UTG+2 with two black Queens, and Villain in cutoff raises to $25. I call. Flop is J-7-5 two diamonds (with J of diamonds). Check, Bet $45, Call. Turn is 7, no backdoor draw. Check, Bet $60, Call. River is J, no flush available. Check, Bet $80 (all-in), and I basically snap call. Villain turns over A-K offsuit, no diamond, and QQ is good. This was a pretty easy decision for me, given my opponent and our history. But is this a good call against a rock? Am I ever folding this hand to anyone? I need roughly 30% equity on the flop, 25% equity on the turn, and 20% equity on the river. A harder decision would have been if he shoved the turn. It is extremely rare for this villain to make a pot-sized bet after the flop. I guess my question is, with 100 BB effective stacks, is QQ always calling? Do I partially fold QQ if I have a diamond?
  7. Yesterday there was a misdelivered package on my front door, so I decided to take it to the right house. When I did, I parked in the person's driveway. In this day and age, I was probably putting my life at an unnecessary risk.
  8. Did she at least eat the goat?
  9. At the district clerk's office.
  10. Donald Trump had a reality TV show that made him appear smart and strong--i.e., someone who they mistakenly thought would fight for them and win. Nobody in this country has ever heard of her until yesterday.
  11. https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/4623848-kristi-noem-describes-killing-dog-after-bad-hunting-trip-in-new-book-report/ This says that she wrote that story to show that she's willing to carry out difficult tasks. If that's what she thinks this story does, then I wonder if she made it up.
  12. Indicted in Arizona. https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/politics/elections/2024/04/24/rudy-giuliani-mark-meadows-among-7-indicted-in-arizona-trump-fake-electors-but-not-yet-named/73446921007/ I hope this motherfucker dies in prison.
  13. Years ago I was in Wisconsin and "Pine St." was next to "Pine Ave." which was next to "Pine Rd."
  14. If Joe Biden has six bankruptcies and multiple failed businesses would that cause some MAGA supporters to vote for him?
  15. When will Trump's attorneys argue that the Sixth Amendment requires a jury of white, six-time-bankrupt failed businessmen/reality TV stars who inherited their wealth? Will they seek an emergency stay/mandamus in the federal courts?
  16. I still can't believe that an entire generation of Americans, who grew up when you could live a great life in America with a shit job and a shit education, overwhelmingly voted for a six-time bankrupt failed businessman to become President.
  17. Trump really did end up getting a lot of criminals off the streets.
  18. In Texas, if a delivery driver shoots your dog, do you have a legal right to shoot the delivery driver to protect your property?
