2018 NC/LC - Misteaks Were Made - Page 70 - Small Stakes Poker Forum

Went to Jiffy Lube, manager is a super-preggo woman ready to burst any moment although I had tenants like that for a long time - even offered a month's free rent if they'd give birth in my office - who had her 6 y.o. son sitting in the waiting room w/ a tablet. By the time I got through w/ him he said 'If you were a kid you'd be fun to play with.' That's my sick brag for the day.

I don't understand your story. Seems to be going in three different directions at once.

I’m trying to to understand why you would pay her to give birth in your office.

I was talking about my former life as a low income housing developer. Thousands upon thousands of women who appeared ready to go into labor at any moment passed through my office and it was a wonder to me that none of them ever did. So I'd come out w/ 'if you give birth right now you get one month's free rent.' I never had to pay up.

I'm starting day four out of five days that I'm in charge of about 15 animals lol. I may have lost a chicken that escaped the coop, which I've been unable to get back into the coop since day one. Besides that, all animals are accounted for.

Oww, actually considered visiting CAZ this weekend for a millisecond, until I saw 110 forecast. I thought this was monsoon season.

Monsoon season doesn't mean it gets cooler. It means it's still hot as hell, but with occasional flash flooding.

It gets humid during the monsoons. It was disgusting in there a week ago.

Sweating Pope Francis can be hilarious.

Is bluffing a sin? Can you piss off the Pope? Would he flop a joint?

Whereas men generally take "sir" as a sign of respect, women usually take "ma'am" as a sign that they look old.

I've always used ma'am. But then again, when I was under 40 maybe people just didn't care because they thought I was young enough to let it slide.

There’s certainly no reason to show a bluff when I don’t have to or otherwise demonstrate that “I always have it” might be mistaken, is there?

There is absolutely no reason to do anything other than to reinforce incorrect table images.

If they think you bluff too much, unnecessarily show any bluff that worked. If they think you bluff too little, unnecessarily show your strongest hands.

I played the 6/12 O8 with Bruce and John in the same game with John on my right and Bruce on my left. I was doing just fine until John came in and, of course, ran hot in the right spots. Then I ****ing lost my **** and just tilted off a couple racks and left two hours later than planned.

Good news, though! I am tilting off fewer racks than before!
