When you use the term "donkey" so often that the undergraduates at the college you are attending for grad school nick name you "The Donk"

When I get a good grade on one paper and a bad one on another I chalk it up to variance.

When you're watching a good movie in the theater, but it gets boring for like 2 minutes and your mind automatically shifts to poker for a solid 5+ minute day dream.

When you talk about grinding in a new chair in your facebook status and don't even realize that your non-poker friends think you are talking about sex

My SMS alert is the sound of Full Tilt's card shuffle.
For anyone wondering, you can access all FT's sound's in My Computer/Program Files/Full Tilt Poker/Waves

Find the sound you like, than figure out how to get it on whatever phone you have.


The other night I was trying to remember what happened that morning, but in my head in went "what happened preflop?"


I also have the raise sound for my text message....yeah poker has taken over my life.

Re: Surefire signs that internet poker is taking over your life

a portion of my friend group just recently stopped saying "standard" and "lol [whatever]aments," even though they don't play poker--they just hear me say it that much.

To create a ringtone compatible with iPhone:

(1) Open iTunes

(2) From the File menu, select Add File to Library

(3) Browse to the sound file you'd like as a ringtone and add it.

(4) Browse to the file in iTunes. (Look under Library > Music > Unknown Album)

(5) Right-click the file and select Create ACC Version. This will create a .M4A file from the selected sound file.

(6) In Windows Explorer, navigate to the new file on your hard drive. (Look under My Documents > My Music > iTunes > iTunes Media > Music > Unknown Artist > Unknown Album).

(7) Rename the file from something.M4A to something.M4R. It is now a ringtone and can be synced back to your phone.

(8) Profit.

(9) Since iTunes is already open, download and listen to the Pokercast Episode #103 podcast. Bonus points for surfing Vanessa Rousso's Maxim spread during the interview.
