Once you start shortstacking LHE I think it's time for a life re-evaluation.

To be fair to the other reg, take the seat across from him; don't sit on his left to block his access to fish.

Just did this - regs sitting at 5/T tables. I sat across from them, they sat out or left the table immediately. Even though new blood was joining the table even before the hand was dealt. Bunch of chicken*****.

do you share your poker account with the fiancee...

Brutal, IMO.

haha did you expect them to just blaze through Boston's defense in the first game? I would chop off my hands (might need help for the second) to see that team every home game.

not brutal at all. that was posted when he was still a "winning" player. It was believed that past of the reason he was able to keep up his insane volume was because his fiance played on his account sometimes

all the people sleeping on Boston are in for a surprise. They've got so much size, gonna be so physical and tough to play against. And Rondo is still improving. Miami's got the flash and the big names, but the East should be a dogfight between Miami/Boston/Orlando.

They're going to be really interesting to watch this year.

why does that make it less funny? Instead of being one of the best mid stakes players on stars he choose to be a loosing 3/6 player. he made 125K in 8 months pre rakeback. Now he has too play a lot more hours, losing 3/6 too make less money

Or you're counting that these grinders showing no tournament statistics what so ever and PTR graph of -100k will be able to sell 50% of the tournament buyins?
