goddam that is hilarious. anymore of these lol

Yeah, I'd like to watch some old jungleman or the v 1st Galfond training vid.

OP press release mentioned transferring library to youtube.

ETA?

I remember chatting with Taylor Caby and Brian Townsend. They were great at interacting with lesser members, even insignificant members, which I definitely was. I also remember joking with Fiery Justice about why most members didn't realize that he was the 2 time WPT champion, and probably literally the most successful player on the site. He joked that he had wondered the same thing.

Great site, and great memories. Poker and the Internet are brutal with even solid ideas. The site is entirely gone now. All the blogs incinerated. Now it's an ad-board for Pokertracker and Investment software. It reminds me of the end of Goodfellas when he says he used to eat spaghetti and meatballs, and now all he gets is noodles and ketchup. Sad.

what happened to them uploading the library to YT??

Last I checked they had a library on YT. I think it ended at 2015 tho, I have no clue when they stopped making vids.

not even a tenth of the library is on yt

is there any way to get some of the CR videos? the YT posted ones are only clips

This is a lyric from an old Radiohead song, and also the most likely inspiration for Taylor Caby's Full Tilt Poker handle: Green Plastic

The source of this lyric comes from the second line - "For a Fake Chinese Rubber Plant". I can only surmise that this is a direct reference to Robert Plant, Led Zeppelin's front-man.

The green plastic could refer to Jimmy Page's Guitar, or any number of convenient metaphor. I believe it refers to a microphone, the tool most used by Mr. Plant, and also the lyricist of the song.

The Fake Plastic Earth is literal. In The Bends, Thom recites that he wishes it was the 60's. I think he chose this time because Led Zeppelin was not yet in their final form, both LZ and Radiohead being from England, it's only fair to say he wishes he could've been their contemporary.

I'm pretty sure he just returned a bunch of Sprite/7 Up bottles and used the deposit refunds for his roll.

Any luck finding them?

Im looking for 1 specific from [vital]Myth...

GG. Taylor was always a class act with me, even putting up with how difficult I was at the age I worked with CR. I hope he and others got what they wanted out of the company.

Does the usage of "abortion" really bother u? First day in the internet?

agreed, it was!

Who's to say that's the word that elicited the response? Perhaps "basement" might have hit closer to home. Literally.
