  1. Had a pretty good night at TCH. Played in the big o tournament. Only about 20 people played, but with rebuys the prize pool ended up at $3500. I jumped out with a bunch of dumb luck and was chipleader at the beginning. I went card dead for a bit and most the players that remained caught up. We got to the final table and I finally got some cards. Got AdQhJTh2d and potted preflop. Got one caller and a short stack repotted and I repotted all in. I had around $150k and short stack was around $60k. Other caller thinks for a while and folds. He shows AK532. Board goes Q9972 and I scoop with a pair of queens. Next hand I get A3468. A bigO noob pots it preflop and I call. Flop is 982 giving me pair and nut low draw. I pot it and he calls. Turn is a 6 he checks and I pot with the nut low and two pair. He tanks and ends up calling. River is a 4, he checks and I pot again, putting me all in, he tanks for a bit and then folds. He says the 4 saved me as it counterfeited his low so he didn't call. I show the A3 for the nut low and he then says good thing the 4 showed up as he would have called if it hadn't. He had 1 pair for his high. A few hands later I get ATd943d. I raise preflop and get one caller. Solid older player but not really good at bigo. Flop is a bingo 8d32d giving me the nut low, a diamond draw and a wheel draw. I'm trying to figure out how much I can bet to get him to call and before I have a chance he pots it. I call. Turn is a 7 giving me an open ended strait draw. He pots, I repot and he calls. He shows AAK32, no diamonds. River is a wonderful jack of hearts and I scoop with the nut nut. I go from a slightly below average stack of $150k to $563k in three hands. We were down to 4 and one player lives in Bastrop and wanted to get home so we go ahead and ICM chop and I get $1200. Pretty damn good for a $120 buy in and $50 add on. Head over to the big o cash game and deck once again hits me in the face. Run up $300 to $840 in about an hour and head home at midnight up around $1600 for the day. Best day I've had in quite a while.
  2. My partner posted here and was my business partner in the company that hired about 10 people off shaggy. He wasn't a total ringer, but he has played some pro events.
  3. In FJ cruiser land the blue with the white top is referred to as the “port-o-potty” color scheme
  4. Just read that story the other day. Holy fuck, he may be the biggest degen of all time. What’s funny/sad about the whole thing is he lost way more than he won but if you win $10 million one year and lose $20 million the next year you still owe tax on that $10 million. And if you win $10 million and lose $10 million in one year and you don’t technically owe any taxes you’re in a world of shit if you don’t file properly like this guy.
  5. I had to go to St. Cloud on a business trip about 15 years ago in February. Didn't bother to look at the weather. It was 80 in Austin when I left so I was wearing shorts and a tshirt. I got to the hotel and it was about 10 degrees and snowing. Everyone was looking at me as if I was from outer space.
  6. Everything I read for my 2010 FJ said they all had it you just had to install the stick on the steering wheel and connect the wires and you were good to go. I was not in fact good to go after installing and wiring it up. YMMV
  7. Since I can’t figure out how to invite you I opened the clan up so you can request to join. Need someone for league war so good timing
  8. ended up getting both at RCI, budbuilt wanted $220 for shipping and $253 to paint them
  9. getting my rock sliders at budbuilt, didn't really like their skid plates as they are way more expensive
  10. did you ever do this? anyone else have a recommendation for skid plates for the FJ?
  11. How many passengers is that going to hold? 1?
  12. damn. every time I think I run bad you or 518 post a story that is way worse than anything I've had.
  13. it was GRUhorn I don't ban him fast enough people complain, I ban him fast people complain
  14. Get KK in bomb pot board K77 and QcTcTs pot, I repot, call, repot, three of us all in. Top board goes blank blank bottom board goes KcTh i got top boat, top boat, think I may be scooping, one guy turns over a ten for quads, other guy AcJc for royal flush
  15. Go to TCH tonight to play in bomb pot tournament. Tournament is trash, blinds go up fast and with an ante every hand you’re at 10m before the first break. Committed to going all in if I hit 2 pair with $40k in chips, ended up getting blinded away. Go play Holdem while waiting for bomb pot table. Buy in for $200. First hand I get 66. 4 seat bets $15 pre flop and 6 of us call. Flop 5s6c7s. I check, seat 4 bets $35, fold, fold, I jam my $185, he calls, shows KsTs. Turn 3h, river 3s, he gets up and lets out a big “Fuck yeah!” Dealer starts shoving chips to me, “what are you doing?” “Sir he has a boat” next hand I get KK, someone raises to $15, I call, seat 4 raises to $135, folds to me, I jam my $450, he calls, shows QQ, runs pure and I’ve turned $200 into $960. Two hands later I get called to move to the bomb pot table.
  16. https://www.mcmaster.com/ is my goto for metal parts
  17. Stands on hind legs? Lol no.
  18. Thanks. What makes it complicated is both the guy who hit my wife and we both have USAA. I've been told completely different things from different people there, and keep ending up in loops of person A telling me to call person B and person B telling me to call person A. Never had an issue in 20 years with USAA, the last few months makes me want to look around for a different company.
  19. What does the law actually say Tboo? All I've found is "Reasonable". My wife drives a honda crv, we rented the smallest and cheapest Nissan Versa for $50 a day, drove an extra 10 miles past other rental places that were more expensive, and they gave us $1100 of the $1600 we spent. It was literally the cheapest car within 50 miles of my house. Took them 6 weeks to admit fault so it wasn't like we could just wait till then to get them to rent it for us. What recourse is there? Sue in small claims court? Complain to State Insurance regulators?
  20. This thread is for news about the event. If you’d like to discuss the governor, trump, Alex jones you are free to start a thread in CR and go to town
  21. well they were the sand crabs not the crab grass
  22. Nice, same color scheme as mine. Did not know you were part of the mafia. Between North Padre, off roading in New Mexico last year, hidden falls every few months and hopefully moving to the mountains in a few years I couldn't imagine having a 2wd.
