Room mate. How did you know?

Pokie, what is your projection of the 2014-2019 outlook for wood toilet seats in greater China?

They use toilet seats in China?

I don't know. I'm not an expert.

If I was a gambling man, I'd say the outlook for Chinese wooden toilet seats looks rosy.

Since I'm a gambling dinosaur however, I couldn't comment.

As always I believe it ultimately boils down to whether or not Tobe disagrees.

whether or NOT? when's the not ever happened?

The key to this is making sure that you only 4bet or 5bet to 40bbs to make people believe you're a shorty when they see your betsize.

How do you precisely hit the button you want given that you don't have hands?

I use a mouse obviously.

His name is Jerry and he presses the buttons for me, after I tell him what action to take in each hand. It's a good arrangement. I give him cheese to eat, and he helps me operate the Pokerstars software and lose $$$ as slowly as I possibly can. I don't like to feel like I am easy money after all; I'm a slow-bleeder.

how are you able to give him cheese tho?

Do you ever eat him if he misclicks?

I steal the cheese from traps that we find lying around.

My claws are big and I have tough skin so I can take the slight pain of the traps snapping shut on me when I am too slow to get the cheese off.

No, because then I would start losing money faster, and also he is good company most of the time.

have you introduced him to the online animated series rats on cocaine? If so, what does he think of it?

I had the highest expeditions for this thread and it has more than delivered. Please never ever let it die Pokie.

I will try my best but it also requires other people to donate posts for this to happen. It's a team effort to keep this thread alive. :-)

It is a team effort, but you are the captain. So we rely on you to provide your fans with your usual humour, hand histories and anecdotes about your life that we all love.

Who says it doesn't pay to be passive?! :-D

what is your reasoning behind not folding the flop or at least the turn in hand two?

I still have an out to the nuts, and he could have QJ and be value betting against my AA. :-)

Isn't your out to the nuts not in great shape though? I mean even if you hit your out on the turn he still has his out to re-pop you on the river there :-)

Pokie, have you ever gotten down on both your knees and sucked the dick of a transsexual hooker in a vacant parking lot?

Not a vacant parking lot, no.
