Can you provide more details. Have played in the card room there a couple of times but my goal is to get invited to the juicy home games.

I've seen this accusation before in juicy home games I played in DFW before I moved. New player comes in.... runs bad, plays bad e.t.c... loses a chunk of money and then says he's being cheated when I know for a fact that the game is legit.

Meaning if it truly is a whale infested game, what incentive does the host have for cheating? Just a rumor of that being true will kill a game. And doing it at 25/50 just seems very unlikely.

Yeah, the friend I'm referring to used to play at KoJack's (+/-) full time. He's a seasoned professional and has a definite skill edge so I don't think a lack of perspective is an issue here. As for losing "a lot" (relative) of money, that can happen to even the best player in the game of course.

I don't remember what the exact steaks were but some stacks in HHs I've been sent were over $20,000 iirc. Lots of straddles. I believe it varied as well.

He got invited through a connection since he used to work in oil before quitting to play poker. The whales were mostly oil guys.

With regards to the cheating, he said some of the players had special glasses(!) that allowed them to see the cards. Sounds crazy, but I believe him. He has a good head on his shoulders and is pretty transparent.

I can't speak for the incentive for someone really wealthy to cheat. I'll be honest in that I'm not too familiar with the dynamic that exists in these home games.

I'm not sure if that game still runs or if there was a resolution since I haven't asked. I'm now curious how he figured that out etc. LOL but w/e.

On another note, is it really worth the risks- especially at high stakes?

I've been playing online quite a bit. Learning some great guitar music. Still a beta **** from day to day unfortunately but what can you do.

At least I can do 10 unassisted pullups now, it's part of my regular workout routine, and I actually owe it to Squid. Thanks man!

Heyoooooo

Holy #$%^ ten pullups? When did you become a musckle man?

'we' should make a deal with a basketball game for a jam session with the same people. I'm now an actual music student learning piano.

that being the case I would proceed and have some recreational sex
Did the no-tipping help you blend?

I'm glad poker made Sabre-life meaningful again. If not now then we should really stop using the phrase.

RTP it's called daubing. It's use was suspected in a recent major heads-up tournament.

i've figured out the key to life, find a woman,blast b-52s into her ears and if she's receptive then marry her and live happily ever after

sabr i suggest you implement this genius wisdom, how could you ever spend the rest of your life with some who is anti b-52s?

@67 - i over tip at restaurants when i go out. I over tip the dock boys when I fuel my boat.

Black jack you simply must have a no tipping policy with regards to team play. All big teams that I know of have this policy and I was heavily involved in 2 of the biggest.

I don't do blackjack so I don't know the logistics, but I would feel horrible if I never tipped playing poker...

Lmao I was on the way chipotle today and on the way in I bumped into this girl. She’s about 5’5 with huge fake tits and she’s blonde but really beautiful. She asked me to have sex with her in the chipotle bathroom, but I was already tired from having sex with this korean kpop Star this morning, not to mention an LA rams cheerleader blew me on the way to chipotle. Anyways after I made love to the up and coming Instagram model who made my burrito, I hopped in my Ferrari and went back to my mansion staffed by a dozen Eastern European models. I wish my life was a little bit better, been feeling lame lately.

Skipping beans is correct as well

How trustworthy do you think the dealer/s are in that game? Do you suspect any of them of being mechanics?

Or does the game have an auto-shuffler and my questions are moot?

Does anyone else notice if they orgasm multiple times between when they wake up and mid afternoon that they're groggy all day? I swear, I try not to, but when I do I'm dazed and confused the rest of the day.
