  1. We went in late February and got great weather.  I don't know how many of the courses you are playing, but if you have to skip one, Old Mac, to me is the weakest.  Some people love it.  Play the par 3.  We did the lighted up night putting at the punch bowl and it was really really cool.

    Thx! We are gonna play all 5. Gonna play the Preserve (13 hole par 3) arrival day. Then one a day with either Shortys (9 hole par 3), Preserve, Punchbowl, or replay after as daylight, energy, and weather indicate.

    Eh.  400, 3000, 10000...don't matter.  We have had vaccines since Jan 2021 - since then all covid protocols should be terminated.

    I mean, we haven't had them widely available since anywhere near Jan 2021 for one. For two, uptake hasn't been what it should be, largely because a certain tribe literally refuses to stop spreading brainwashed bullshit about the vaccines. For three, we live in a society with finite resources, so no we can't just have sustained deaths at a certain level, due not only to the obvious human toll, but the strain on the overall healthcare infrastructure.  This isn't new information. 

    I'm not arguing against the mask mandate being lifted with this, but I am saying if you aren't paying attention to the overall landscape, and/or don't care about the healthcare system or its employees, that you should sit out the discussions while grownups talk. 


  3. Probably not on flop. Since he holds the Ac I’m not likely on a flush draw, so he’d just be getting weaker hands to fold.

    Plus if you have QJcc, KJcc, KQcc, he’s still gonna be getting action on any turn anyway. If you have Q8cc instead of Q8hh (I know he has Qc but just as an example) you prob bet turn again yeah?
  4. Should Boomer ever be raising that flop or turn?

    Reasons to raise IMO would be if you think opponent has a worse ace (or worse draw) they will stack off with or if you think opp may fold AK. With shorter stacks I would raise flop and get it in if possible.

    Here, I like his flop call. Stacks are too deep for like 98cc or AJ to just get it in (note this wouldn’t be the case if he 3b pre). He really doesn’t have any bad turn cards for his hand or action. No overs can come, he has the flush draw. Opps could have two paints for a gutter but that just means they have 3 good outs (which he still has equity if they hit) and 1 death out where they make straight with a club.

    Turn jam would be to get Lurch to call AJ/A9 or fold AK which both seem fairly unlikely. So Boomer has like the exact hand where raising doesn’t work great. Obv if you’re against an opp who will never fold top pair and opens all the aces UTG, value jam for sure.
  5. Good old golf!  I have the super Bandon itch, think I'm finally gonna make this trip happen.  Anyone have recs on the best value time to go?  Obv Aug/Sept is the nuts but is also super spendy and some of my group can't do that.  Have heard several people say they've gotten plenty good weather in Jan/Feb, and it's DRAMATICALLY cheaper.  Any thoughts? 

    Also if anyone didn't watch them, the No Laying Up Tourist Sauce videos on YouTube were elite.  The Oregon season, episodes 3-8 are all on Bandon Dunes, with one ep devoted to each course, after the initial overview ep.  Must watch IMO. Ep 3 is here:

    Absolutely should have three bet pre.  That's the biggest mistake in the hand - not the UTG tilt play and then following through until luckbox.

    I'd say J8o flatting 8 bigs UTG+2 with 7 players yet to act is the worst, but yeah. 

  7. We’ve all been there. Agree turn and river super easy/standard. Easy to say seeing cards and trying to not be results oriented but Boomer likely shoulda 3b pre. I don’t mind his flop flat since in that spot your thought is really no bad cards can turn.

  8. LOL wowwww that is grooosssss.  C-bet into 4 players on AT3 flush draw with no equity seems really optimistic to me (but not as optimistic as flatting J8o UTG2), but good old getting there!

    You gamble a lot, right?  So you understand risk reward in cards (and I'm sure life) pretty well. How long do you think you will be in the house?  That's a pretty big part determining what you should do.  

    How high can the initial jump go to (it should be capped- my guess would be maybe even as low as 6.25%)?  How high is the lifetime cap?

    Haha yep, gotta maximize EV!  Definitely figure will be in the house for 6 more years (youngest daughter is in 6th grade).  Rate is WSJ 1yr LIBOR +2.25, capped at 8.25, adjusts 85th month then every year thereafter. 

  10. Absolute war crimes. I saw a guy at Franklin once cutting the bark and fat off his brisket with scissors he brought. In retrospect I dunno why I didn’t go scoop up his trimmings. Or murder him where he sat, either way.
