If you aren't very good at the cooking thing, I'd avoid chicken and seafood products. Or run the risk of grumbly tummy guests.....

Do a tri-tip and make fajitas with that.

I also 4-bet bluffed twice when I thought the 3-bet was a squeeze and got shoved on both times.

Probably called too many 3-bets as well.

Just found a friend that sells bbq grills for a living to cook. I must've told him about it this weekend when I was drunk because when I called him he was already preparing food

Do you, and anyone else, play much while traveling? That would be the time I really wouldn't want to play at all especially w/out my dual screens and PT stats.

Also, what's up w/ echecks from pokerstars? Am I just suppose to wait it out? It's been about 10 days.

a) no I almost never play while Im on vacation

b) theres a thread in internet gambling about the delay. Set up wire transfers for future cashouts now that you're pro though. They almost never take more than a week, usually 3-4 days. Takes like 5 mins to set up the first one, then it's just like using any other cashout option and the minimum amt is only $5K

*********** ;'#;#';#'~@~@#'#'@#'

I had a -20BI day, but I was okay with it because I was getting it in good (aces held up 0/9 times etc.). I went out to enjoy the weather this afternoon, and I just settled down for another session this evening. After loading up a full set (about 16 games), busting from one or two early and loading up a couple of new ones - stars connectivity goes busto for me (based in the UK). It becomes intermittent, and the network connectivity says it's a problem at their end. I can browse 2p2, gmail, pr0n etc. so I'm assuming it's their fault. I've emailed but had no response. Gonna take forever to get out of this downswing now, easily around 40BI. Ugh.

Bad day imo.

That's good to know. At least I was getting used to 16-tabling at the $3 games rather than playing 8 or 10 $10-$16. But it's going to take forever to recover that swing on my PT stats. Still no response, I take it they usually take a few hours for these things?

Yeah, depends on where and how you are travelling. Spending a month or two out in Vegas is a great time to grind. I've got a laptop(getting a Dell 17 inch was one of my best investments) and it wasn't bad flying out with my 20 inch monitor in a carry on bag. Just got some bubble wrap and it was all good. Got hassled a little bit at the airport but it didn't take more than 2-3 minutes.

When I stayed with Josem in Australia he had an extra 20 inch monitor that I borrowed. I probably should've grinded more but still got in 20+ hours a week while I was there. For those that aren't tied down, finding another poker player to crash with in a different country for 1+ month is like finding gold. Highly recommend it.

I hate playinging in hotel rooms and usually don't. This year for the Aussie Millions I think I played 1 set while down there. Spotty connections scare the crap out of me. For cash it's not bad but for sng's it could easily be an automatic 12 buyin downswing.

look at Fat Bob, Street Bob, and Night Rod

Harley Street Bob
lol....americans. Why should I pay more, for less of a bike, just to get a Harley decal?

Devin the Yamaha is quite clearly cooler. It's plain for all to see.

I went to look at them in person today. I liked the way the 07 Honda looked better than the Vstar. But, when I went to another place I got a great deal on a 07 Vstar, so I bought it.

I've tried importing it and dumping it into my hh file that pt reads, both failed.

I don't want to dick around with the import email thing.

help?

got a question:

HU SNG with no blind increase. do you play this like a cash game?
05-05-2008 , 06:47 PM
I've ridden Harleys 3 times in my life (all different bikes). One was almost brand new and left me stranded for hours on the freeway with some electrical problem. One had one out of two cylinders working. The third worked ok except for being so damn slow.

Honda 919 is what I'd like to have.

Devin, how would you like to buy a 2000 Honda ST1100?
