I been a set-mining machine on FT this week. Except I been digging them up in villains' mines. Must have found a dozen sets in the past couple days alone.

Online poker is a dumb idea.

I'm surprised there aren't more of you LA guys playing at The Hustler since they started their rack back promotion. For every 100 hours you put in you get a rack at whatever limit it is you earned the hours at, $100 for blue chip games, $200 for 8/16, and $500 for 25/50, and you still get to use the points on food, sex toys from the gift shop or whatever else you fancy..

Same, though Hustler is a little far from me and I might spend that money in gas.

Spoke with a young man in his 20's yesterday that sounded like some one who posts here. Did not know how to ask if he 2p2 - remember somewhere they wanted to flash a hand sign. Hands spread, with two raised fingers and crossed thumbs

His life/poker story was off the pages of these threads... no strategy discussion - too bad I busted his KK - but that is 3/6 - he understood that.

BTW - flopped a flush and turned a straight flush, both cards play and I won $100 high hand - 10 minutes to the cut off. Yeah and the pot

In most cases true, but since the vast majority of BBJs are hit on AAA boards (when As full qualify), those are the boards you need to treat differently.

0 streets out of 4 for villian? Hand told from his perspective....

3 limps, overlimp with QQ. 6 to the flop with 6sb

AJ7 with two hearts ace offsuit. Two checks, a bet from MP, QQ raises, a cold caller from the blinds, a 3! and all call

Turn 6. QQ calls the bet from MP

River J. MP checks, QQ bluffs/vb wateva and MP snap calls with A6hh

Mp1 is a passive generally btw....

Can confirm. Good timing kid.

Can also confirm, this hand by my donkish neighbor(seat 9) on my left.

You raise KK, my neighbor has JQo, flop was all low/mid cards and he donks out

someone raises and you 3 bet, he folds. turn Q, river Q. You ween

He told me that he would have called one more but not two back to him

That's what he was muttering about? I had forgotten that he had just inexplicably donked with QJ ui on like a 7 high board with a flush draw into 3 opponents in a 3 bet pot. That was fantastic.

Frond you should post a hand or two from last night, you had more interesting spots than me I just got to win every pot I played.

Well there goes my bankroll, just bought an All You Can Jet pass from JetBlue... probably going to do one trip to Vegas for a day or so, but other than that I'm going to be traveling all next month...
