I like his personality for the most part, I reckon he can be a bit of a dick, though. I think Mattusow might actually be the nicer of the two, away from the tables. At the table, I fucking love Negreanu's style. I've been trying to get my head around small ball, taking pieces from his strategy, don't know if he's the best theorist, though. Don't know if I'll bother with his book, I watched all his video blogs, and I don't reckon there was more than a minute of helpful poker theory in the lot, his articles are slightly better Ordered Chen's book yesterday, getting it FedExed direct from the publishers, mine ships the same time they ship to Amazon.

"Even though Simpson claimed under oath that he did not own a pair of Aris Isotoner gloves, several media pictures emerged showing Simpson wearing these exact gloves." That does it for me, like, everything else he can maybe put down to a vast and unlikely conspiracy, but there's basically only one reason he would lie about that. Would love to know his response to the pictures, "Oh gloves, I thought you asked if I had a beard."

I've come to conclusion he is in fact Blaydon. Are you suggesting Glenn Roeder is a "kandy raver"?
-
Actually, maybe he called a worse hand with the T7...
-
Five minutes on Wikipedia and I know the bloke* is guilty, why even bother with a legal system? *These two are obviously guilty of crimes against fashion and possibly humanity, but in this case I'm referring to Simpson.

Similar thing happened to me the other day. Got down to the last 3 and I was massively shortstacked, managed to build things up a bit and eventually had 11k or so. Heads up lasted about 20 minutes, but I gradually ended up at about 3,000 chips. He raised me all in with T-7, I called with pocket jacks and he hit two tens on the flop to finish it. That reminds me of one of those Moneymaker freerolls I played the other day. Two utter maniacs raise & call for about 3bb in front of me, I look at AJ and move all in, two callers turn over A5, Q7, fucking 5 on ther river. Every time I see T7 now, I'm reminded of a rant Negreanu went on at last year's Main Event at some guy for raising him all in with T7. When I see it "I've got the ten-seven, I've got the nuts" goes through my head, every time.

Not more racism I thnk he's suggesting he can kiss his own knob, which is a compliment to them, if anything.

No, I couldn't credit him with the Aces because I had a maniac image at the table, but also the massive chip lead that went with it. That left me with over 2000 chips, but the high blinds* meant I had to make a move with pretty decent cards (maybe A9/AJ?), guy in the big blind calls and turns over Aces again, this is about 4 hands later! That one killed me I also managed to lose heads-up with a chip lead of about 11k+ vs ~1700 yesterday. The starting pot was 1000, so it was easily done with a few duff hands, felt like I'd lost rather than come second, though. *It was a turbo btw.
-
He had money, though, you can't blame him for upgrading, they respect that. How are we all so convinced by his guilt btw? I can't remember a thing about this case, can someone point me to a simple summary, preferably with pictures, or is this just another case of Gemmill's Alabama Night Riders being alive and kicking in Newcastle?
-
Aye, .45 x HigherPairs X PeopleRemaining = %. Same thing. I usually suss it out with bets and ranges, though. Wonder if this would have helped me out last night when I faced AA vs my KK on the bubble?
-
You do have an equivalent, it's between your ears.

It's not? Very well put tbh. For a bog trotter. I does me best, boss.

He had some nice touches, but was largely ineffectual, lost the ball an awful lost and didn't run much off the ball. He looks like he needs at least another couple of months, maybe the rest of the season to adapt. He's been put under a rediculous amount of pressure to adapt from Italian football in a role he doesn't really look comfortable with. It's 100% Roeders' fault and I don't think he can be critised for his commitment. He's improving as he adapts, It looks like the skill's there, but I am still concerned about his movement. -

Not one of the key reasons we got a draw today, then? OK. -
Too much blue WKD for you, I reckon. Good luck with the interview.
-
Just looking back at my post, did you think I said "What is pot limit?", as opposed to "Was it pot limit?"? I love Omaha, still really only play Hold 'em for cash, though.
-
Sounds a lot like Texas Hold 'em. Bond's gone to the dogs tbh.
-
Aye fucking ages. What makes it obvious like, looks like the perfect post to me. I just liked the random tutoring on basic poker concepts tbh.

Is that like Eranu and Uvavu at all? Basically, yes. It's seven-card stud, roll your own all the way, high-low, no qualifier, with a pitch and a buy at the end, and declare. Dove from Above? Seven-deuce triple draw? Richie Wermerling. I went to school with him. He had to have an operation on his foreskin, as it was too tight, and caused him pain when he got an erection. I do not speak from personal experience...

I might have to give that a look. A Texas hold 'em player walking into an Omaha game and dominating is either extremely lucky, a poker genius or playing against serious donks. Not that I'd like to make any assumptions, like. Was it Pot limit?
