  1. Recall, too, that Ukraine wasn’t exactly a model world citizen. They had to overthrow their government as recently as 2014 It’s a bit too simpleminded to just look at today and suggest they should have been left with nukes
  2. My understanding is that the Russians controlled those nukes so they were useless to Ukraine
  3. I woke up in a cold sweat and could suddenly remember: Coke once had a promotion where if you popped the top of a winning can, a $1 bill would pop out. But they had to end the promotion because sometimes the spring loaded device would fail and the winner wouldn’t notice they won until they took a drink of whatever liquid was used to preserve the bill. Would suck if you were REALLY thirsty, too, and the vending machines back then didn’t accept bills, so you couldn’t just buy another one right there unless you had more change.
  4. Sadly, The Amazing Johnathan has passed. RIP to an all time great Vegas performer
  5. Not to be lost in this is that he’s not apologizing to the PGA, its players or fans. He’s apologizing to the Saudis
  6. Discussed up thread in a tweet I posted. The complaints are legit; it’s the approach that is fucked
  7. YouTube app on Firestick has same problem. Every few months I have to clear cache, uninstall, reinstall it. My guess is it has a bug in cache management and corruption occasionally happens.
  8. No, I don’t think I ever would. Kh might call, but everything else would fold. Alternatively, I might see him barrel the turn with a few other hearts. We talked about it, and he said he would fold to any turn bet, so not leading out turned out to be the right call here. Until it wasn’t. I’m curious if river had been a non-7/4 would he have called my overbet. I sized up to look like a bluff, but unfortunately priced myself out of ever folding to his shove.
  9. We played again last night and he was very apologetic. Apparently he had run bad all stream and was just punting out of frustration. We both agreed I wanted that play every time.
  10. 4:34:00 if it doesn’t take you straight there
  11. Still on Team Fuck Phil, but this is a good explainer thread despite his conclusion
  12. Jesus, fuck Phil. What a bad look
  13. Fuck yeah. It’s great even when weak by its own standards
  14. I like your turn bet sizing. Have to charge those chasing the flush. I’m check calling river
  15. I’ve decided this show is just one big allusion to my work email inbox. Solve one fucking issue and two more instantly appear as a direct result. Fuck you, pay me, Bateman
  16. I nearly knocked myself out on a soap tray in a hotel shower a few years ago. Stood up too quickly having forgotten it was there and slammed the back of my head into it. Had to get out and sit for quite a while just to get my bearings back. I’m curious if he did something similar
