Also, I believe I mentioned this to UG himself, but ultraviolent wrestling is pretty cool. They, like, throw huge lightbulbs on each other, thumbtacks, barbed wire, jump off massive ladders, set **** on fire, etc. People bleed actual blood. I always forget about it, then randomly see a few clips and remember that it's kinda badass.

It's like WWE professional wrestling if you took the gay **** out.

Somewhere out there, there's a backyard wrestling tape of me at about 14 yrs old being powerbombed through a flaming table. Turns out my hoodie absorbed all the gas and I was completely engulfed in flame. I attempted to stop-drop-and-roll but quickly realized that was futile. Managed to get out of the gas soaked fireball, but lost most of my hair, was forced to shave my head and was known for a few weeks as "powder"

ROFL, wtb more PV backyard wrestling stories!

Taking a powerbomb through a table is pretty crazy, but through fire??? lol

I think it's especially awesome that you did so while wearing a hoodie. On the bright side, your pants didn't catch fire!

Also, had forgotten about that ridiculous Powder movie. I remember it looking terrible and everyone saying it was terrible.

At least he was able to draft Cracker McDukey before leaving:



The second white Duke big to be on the roster in the last 2 years

btw, the speculation is that Bird is taking one year off for back surgery/rehab, and then will come back

With the thread above I have made some contacts and I am getting some feedback that there is a big effort going on within the leadership at Merge to have the limit rake structure fixed.

i have no idea if it will happen, but I am going to keep pressing the issue. One of my contacts is a high volume grinder on the site who generates enough rake that he has the ear of leadership and also has some affiliate dealings with them. He is looking for anyone who can help him with a report on how the present structure negatively impacts non- hold'em limit games. He admits that he is not very knowledgeable outside of hold'em and wants to make sure he addresses any issues that are unique to the other limit games that are played on the site.

PM me if you think you can help.
