Jesse does play in LA's friendliest casino.

Also shocked that he doesn't have a new avatar.

"setup" doesn't seem to go out of style.

A Commerce donk at Bellagio last weekend asked for a setup. The looks on the faces of the regulars were priceless.

Not really sure how to spell this one, it's Vietnamese, sounds something like, "doh mah!" I think it is some kind of insult but I'm not sure. Even some of the white people are saying it around here now.

LOL, my wife got a big kick out of this. She's always telling me to "do the needful", a term she picked up from work that she's now rather fond of.

I think it means basically, "****".

Du ma!

Pretty much every white limit grinder in Portland / Southern Washington has taken up the usage of this phrase. Usually forgetting its status as a serious vulgarity, we now get shushed by the Viet populace we picked it up from whenever we du ma in front of a proper female elder.

Dated question, I know... But just wanted to throw it out there, I play about 45/30 in 4-handed LO8. If your opponents are passive and unbalanced, you can definitely play looser, also.

Re: July Low-Content Thread

What's the drop/rake in the 8-16 game at Casino Arizona? Some people at my table the other day were saying that they drop 5+2 there. Is that correct? What about the higher limit tables? Do they drop/rake or do they charge time? I might be making a pilgrimage out there later this year, after the new development is done.
