Great B&M stories in this thread, would read again. I've seen everything from vomiting on table to a dealer getting choked out (and everything in between). I actually kinda like going--not for the poker--but because you dunno wtf might happen.

gotta love B&M . . .

i actually miss the low-stakes drama. Everyone's too serious in 15-30+ no fun.

Can't wait for nosebleeds, i hear those guys are real a-holes . . .

I love how they wait for the board to get as bad as it can be to put in all the action.

The real way to play AA as a limper:

Grabbed by Holdem Manager
Limit Holdem $10(BB) Poker Stars
Hero ($325)
BB ($444)
BTN ($204)

Dealt to Hero 2

BTN calls $10, Hero raises to $20, BB calls $10, BTN raises to $30, Hero calls $10, BB calls $10

FLOP ($90) 7

Hero bets $10, BB calls $10, BTN raises to $20, Hero raises to $30, BB calls $20, BTN raises to $40, Hero calls $10, BB calls $10

TURN ($210) 7

Hero bets $20, BB raises to $40, BTN raises to $60, Hero raises to $80, BB calls $40, BTN calls $20

RIVER ($450) 7

Hero bets $20, BB calls $20, BTN raises to $40, Hero raises to $60, BB calls $40, BTN calls $14 (AI)

BB shows J

(Pre 14%, Flop 0.7%, Turn 4.8%)

BTN shows A

(Pre 68%, Flop 17.5%, Turn 9.5%)

Hero shows 2

(Pre 18%, Flop 81.8%, Turn 85.7%)

Every now and again someone manages to combine words in the English language together in a way that has never before been done in recorded history. This is just such an occasion.

It really has little to do with being too smart or too stupid, but rather how much math background you have. But it's not like they leave all of the proofs for the reader to verify himself, thus you can just take their word for it and accept the general results.
