I'm not trying to downplay the significance of such an event; I can only make sense of the world through my own eyes. In that sense, Patriots Day was a turning point in my life. I'm still deeply in love with the same woman, 5 years thanks for asking, but things have never been so good as they were before that terrible moment.
I empathize.

Mine was August of 1998. I had just spent a summer in Nairobi installing wells and water pumps. A few weeks after I came back, BOOOOM a bunch of ****ing *******s discharged a truck bomb in the middle of the city.

We took the bus down that road every day. Even aside from the "wow that could have been me" factor, my shock was more that someone would have so little respect for human life - that section of the city was so crowded that not even the matatus (illegal taxis that packed 10+ people into a minivan) would drive through unless they needed to.

**** terrorism.

Chillin. Hope the man isn't holding you down. Wait, since you are the man, I would hope that you're not holding anyone down.

I'm thankful for this platform on which we may be peers, despite our vast differences in both intelligence and maturity. Cheers.

I was doing well, then I was medium rare, and now I'm just well done.

oh good evening.

I sent you a pm a while back, which was either ignored because lolol obscurity and weirdness, or was missed due to your lack of free time. Either way, the problem persists.

Nice to see you.

How about we each pitch in $100 and drop you off at Lee's Wine and see what happens?

I thought that holmfries 08 post was interesting enough to have had many replies but that sub- forum is deader than draw poker.

AND here's how to make everyone laugh at you in an 08 hand:

3-ways on the river, I'm last to act. First to act is a reg who plays ABC. Second is a wild action player, will pump it up w/ almost anything decent. I have the second nut low and a baby FH. It goes bet, call and I say 'they can't BOTH have me beat!' and raise, both call, I get nothing bec for once in his life wild action player didn't raise his slightly better FH. And laugh at me they did.

Hi, doc! Hope all's well!
04-18-2018 , 06:22 AM
I'm laughing at you as well.

Not sure why I didn't respond, but I've rectified my oversight.

That pairing is better than my first ex-wife and a six figure checking account.

It's filet.

$200 each would be better. That way, we could get a couple of bottles. (Think RunRig.)

Beth and I are past tense. This bodes well for the fun bunch Vegas trip. And the several upcoming FL trips. And the upcoming leodoc/HOWMANY New Orleans fishing trip.

So yeah, I'd say things are looking up.

Looking forward to seeing all of you.

Not sure about more correct; but, it would have been just as correct. Incidentally, was that beef?

Likewise my friend. It's been too long.

You'll understand if I take my cabbing to a whole new level this trip? And I may need to stay at the B.

No, that was venison that my dad got in his milo patch.

Either is completely expected/understandable.

The ABC reg stopped to chat on my cig break and said: 'I didn't think you could lose to both of us either. That guy always raises a FH!' fml, I have to run into the one time the yo-yo didn't yo-yo.

I suspected as much. Don't know how you prepped it, but it'd be really hard to **** up with that '03 BV.

Overheard at adjacent table:

"FLOOR!"

"Oh my god..."

"Hey, this guy is sitting here pulling his teeth out; can you make him at least go wash his hands?"

"Yeah, and can we get a new setup?"

I just don't even want to know...

Brined the meat. The other red in the background helped with a reduction, starting a mushroom sauce. Potatoes. Came together nicely with the 2003. Amazing and tender cut with a great game flavor.

It's a shame that you didn't post more when things were trending down. You know that we're always rooting for you and we'll always be glad to remind you when you're having bad days.

Ep limp, nit raises, couple cc, blinds call, ep calls.

976r with one spade

Sb bets, bb raises, nit cc, button cc sb calls

2s

sb checks, bb bets, all call

4s

sb donks, bb calls, nit raises, button cc, sb and bb give speeches in turn about how they flopped straights and each of them folds. Button shows 85o, both blinds claim they had T8 lolslowplay
04-19-2018 , 02:22 PM
What did the nit have?
04-19-2018 , 02:34 PM
Don't believe those clowns. There's no way anyone is folding a straight in a big pot at small stakes.

IMO, it's possible sb was lying. I don't think bb was, tho

I played for a few hours at a different time of day as compared to when I normally play. Twice within an hour I called a bet on the river, got the “ah - you are good speech” from the bettor and waited until he finally slownrolled a huge hand. Once it was clearly a assclown slowroll move. The second it seemed like a legitimate attempt at emotional hedging. Either way I have to take a deep breath and remind myself that these people are generally good for the game and admonishing them doesn’t do any good.

Ok feel better I got that off my chest.
04-19-2018 , 05:42 PM
I tell them to give me the pot then.
