You will be missed. I suppose this also means the 2-7 book is on the shelf indefinitely? Probably a good thing for our collective win-rate, but a shame none-the-less.

Good luck with whatever you get up to.

It's our loss. We'll miss you. Good luck.

Re: Other Poker Regs/BBV thread

Can't figure out how to copy a HH from Merge, where I'm playing mostly PLO for ****s and giggles, but this rare hand of TDL made me happy so I typed it up to share with all of you:

Carbon Poker Limit 2-7 Lowball $1/$2- 2 players

Button: $30.83
BB: $30.00 (Hero)

Dealing Hands: ($01.50) (2 players)
BTN raises $1 to $2, Hero raises $1 to $3, BTN calls $1.

First Draw: ($6) (4 players)
Hero discards 1, BTN discards 2,
||
Hero bets $1, BTN calls $1,

Second Draw: ($8.00) (2 players)
Hero discards 1, BTN discards 2,

||
Hero bets $2, BTN raises to $2 to $4, Hero calls $2,

Third Draw: ($16) (2 players)
Hero discards 1, BTN is pat,

||


Hero checks, BTN bets $2, Hero raises $2 to $4,BTN folds,
Hero won $21.10

(Rake: 0.90)

Re: Other Poker Regs/BBV thread

Aaand that's why copy/paste is vastly superior to typing it up. That should be 7s not 4s. Fixed.

Fascinating article today if anyone would google "pokernewsdaily". Phil Ivey is boycotting WSOP and SUING (150 mil) FTP for grossly mistreating poker players.

Re: Other Poker Regs/BBV thread

It's annual "why the hell am I not in Vegas today" day. At least this year I can blame FTP for having my bankroll, although I still probably would have found an excuse.

Anyone ponying up the 1.5k tonight?
