Dope.

GTFO with that off topic bullshit. Lol. Babylon 5 was one of my favorite shows from back in the day. Have all 5 seasons on dvd, good shit.

Nope, I went back and read my post. I had aces, opponent had kings, flop was A-K-K. So, I flopped Aces full, he flopped quad kings. Had an ace hit the river, I would have made 25% of the BB jackpot, or something like 68 grand. To answer Jeffro's earlier question, they sit 1-2 NL and 2-5 NL typically, and will occasionalyl sit a bigger game if the action is there for it (rumor has it Prahlad Freidman was in town and they sat a $300-$600 table that night). Preflop raises are pretty reasonable if you are the type who has played in various cash games. 1-2 you will see a preflop raise anywhere form $6 to $15, in 2-5 it goes from $15 up to $30 from a guy in bad position who really wants to protect. It isn't bad poker, in my experience, sometimes you just get unlucky.

Severe ass/ball trauma in 3..2......

The liberal left would say that it makes them sick that it took something like this for our government to get control of the gun issue. *shrug*

You're too smart for this, Doc. How often do you think a hammer is used in the USA every day? Now, compare that to how often a firearm is used. I would say that it is a pretty safe bet there are more hammers being swung per year than bullets being fired. And that's JUST hammers, and doesn't include anything else that may qualify as a "Blunt Object". When people throw out statistics like this, you ALWAYS have to question the validity of the numbers, because, on the surface, they do not tell the whole story. This is like the "90% of all fatalities happen within 20 miles of the home" number...well, no shit, guys, we spend 90% of our time within 20 mile sof the home. I am against the gun control measures, for the most part, but I am MORE against the sensationalist tactics being used by BOTH sides of this argument. Quote me some numbers that make sense, or GTFO.

I have nothing to add to this. Good on ya, CR.

Nothing.

Played 2-5 today at Hollywood, in lieu of work. Had a rough morning, with my initial $1000 being whittled down to about $250. Took a lunch break, refocused, and spent the afternoon building it back up to $1700. About 10 minutes before I had made up my mind to go home for the night, I am on the button and am dealt aces. Pretty awesome, especially when you consider that the guy behind the big blind straddled, which there will definitely be action in this hand. So, pot is raised up to $30, called by 3 players, and I re-raise it to $120. The guy who straddled call me, everyone else folds. The flop comes A-K-K, and I had to squeeze my legs together to keep my boner from hitting the bottom of the table. Opponent checks to me, I check back. Next card is a 10. He bets $150, I raise him to $350, he pushes all in and I call before the chips are in the pot as I roll over my aces. Dude says, "Holy shit!," and flips over pocket Kings. The table loses their fucking minds. Why? Because there is $252,000 in the bad beat jackpot at Hollywood right now, and if an Ace comes on the river, we hit that shit. Unfortunately, an ace DIDN'T come on the river, and all I got was a shitload of sympathetic comments. Of note, at EVERY other game I have been a part of, that hand would have qualified and I would have gotten paid. While I am happy that Hollywood is here and I have a place to play whenever I want close by, there are myriad ignorant rules there that drive me just a little crazy.

Good looking pistol.

Guys, seriously, go find an alternative supplier. You don't HAVE to sit in here and bitch, you can actually DO something about this, and it's REALLY easy. Shit, I'll sell it to you for 5.99 cents per kWh, let me know where to send the paperwork.

Man, I just read it again, and all I can come up with is, "Daaaaammmnn...." There is nothing that isn't fucked up about this story, regardless of what the truth is.

Daaaaaaaaaammmnnnn. Ain't that some shit.

One more reason the NCAA won't be governing high level college football for much longer.

The police chase one reminds me of "Cloverfield".

Seconded. EDIT: Confirmed. Interesting. Good fit for the type of talent the eagles have. Good thinking for him to stay out of Cleveland. Welcome back to mediocrity, Ducks. And also, I LOVE the triple post, Johnny.

FYI, Zack, you can't read virtually any posts in that forum unless you join the "Spartan Tailgate".

No, please continue. I am learning more about our recruiting class from you guys scrapping over it than I can in any 15 threads on bucknuts. Seriously, you guys are, at this point, arguing over semantics. You are both quoting the same damn facts, and have your own spin on them. Let's focus on what matters; who are we getting, who are we taking them from, and are they dope? Also, how badly are we going to make the B1G look next year?

Urban is a recruiting gangster. I freaking love it.

As am I. Can you check for sure?

Condoloences, sir. Shalom to you and yours.

Deepest sympathies, Buck. :-(

I thought FSU would be good in the B1G athletically, but their academics are a joke. Regardless, here's hoping they make it work. Since i wasn't in on the last thread, are we assuming that the NCAA will be falling apart soon? If so, thank God. Tired of their wishy washy stance on rule breaking. You got paid 200 grand to go to that school? no worries, your DAD got the money, it's all good. You traded some memorabilia for tattoos? Bowl ban, scholarship reduction, yada yada...makes no goddamned sense.

This.

Nice looking piece.
