Perhaps you're right Kevmath. Its just that I was really surprised to see someone of this caliber in 1/2 game, that's all.

Morrison might not be busto, but it could be a sign that his bankroll is hurting right now. Like when a bad 5/10 nl player goes on a downswing and comes down to the 1/2 table only to donk off his remaining few $100s and then says "this is just for fun. I'm not serious. I usually play the 5/10 game."

If Morrison was healthy right now, would he be donking the 1/2 games?

Classic.

These threads are getting really boring now. Every day there is a thread asking if such and such is busto for whatever reason. Just ******g pack it in, its got nothing to do with you anyway you nosey kunts..........

.

nice thread op

It's hard for me to believe a guy like Kirk Morrison blew the $2mil + he made last year. Plus what I would assume an already decently established bankroll.

It's not hard to believe a high stakes player, playing in lower stakes, for kicks or to blow off steam. It's standard.

Especially before playing in the WSOP; freshen up the "kill donkey" strategy maybe. lol.

remember when daniel n used to do that at 100/200 NL with 20k and brag about it on his blog

and now he's broke

i don' tknow who kirk morrison is but he's going down the daniel n road without the syndicated column in free newspapers money to back him up

Kirk got backed by Daniel N. during Kirk's hot streak in the WPT's. Didn't he gave an interview that he was a total degen about 10 years ago and got out of Vegas to not gamble. Probably didn't learn his lesson.

negreanu is busto?

Fat Tire is meh. Maybe I'm biased b/c they sell some in liquor stores by where I live.

since the thread sucked though let's discuss other beer-related news.

Tonight for the Laker game (they will WIN!!!!!) I'm going to swing by bevmo before a get together at a friends.

Question:

I'm sick of Young's, so should I go:

A) Rogue's Chocolate
B) ROgue's Shakespeare
C) Old Rasp
D) Smith's Imperial
E) Celebrator Dopplebock
F) Trappist Rochefort #8

which should I go for from the list? Pick 4!

Also, KEGS OF FRAMBEEEZZZZIIIIEEEE!!!!!! A keg of PECHE!!!!!!

Personally I'm going for some Bell's Brown Ale tonight! MMMMM MMMMMM!!!

BTW, nice thread hijack VespaRally. I like it!!

maybe had some friends in town that wanted to play so he played also. Deserves a timeout for the post

imagine the sick up and coming group he rolled with Daniel N, Allen C, Phil I, John J. didn't he just up and quit and after winning the WPT he said he would be done with poker by the end of the year?

I've seen an Aussie pro at Crown Casino playing 50c/$1 PokerPro shoving every hand, donking off a few hundred in quick time.

He was not busto, just having some fun.

Sounds like fun.

Or maybe he's just killing time. Ran into John Phan at the Poker Bowl in October. He was one of the participants. Forget what team he was on. And John was in the poker room playing 1-2 NL. The poker room was just around the corner from the room they were filming the Poker Bowl. I asked John what he was doing because I've seen John at the Bellagio playing nose bleed limits in the past and found it extremely odd that he was playing 1-2NL. He told me he was killing time because he was eliminated from the Poker Bowl earlier and was waiting for a few of his friends to show up at the Palms so they could grab a few drinks. It was midweek, Tues or Wed if I recall so I think 1-2 or 2-4 was the biggest game being spread at the Palms. I assumed he wasn't broke because he told me he had a morning flight out to Niagara the next day to play in some WPT events later in the week. Long story short. If you didn't know any better, you would think John was busto also, by pure observation. But in reality, he was just killing time and waiting on friends. FYI. I believe the PokerBowl was a 10k per person buy-in. So, I'm guessing his story had some validity.

Just food for thought. I'd be hesitant to say Kirk is busto based on him playing low limits at RR.

I read a blog a few months back about Gavin doing the same thing in Australia. Playing something like 200 max buy in 1-2NL in Australia while he was there. And he was shoving almost every other hand and getting trashed. It was originally posted on Dr. Pauly's site because Pauly was also in the game.

Another blog, I'll have to find the link. I think it was posted by Devonshire about them playing super low stakes at a private table in Canada (again, Gavin was one of the participants) about a month ago. I think this was also 200 dollar max buy in and just donking off to each other for kicks and to drink. I guess it's not as rare of an occurence as OP would believe.

beat me to it

ban imo

I saw 20~ 2p2ers do this at various times during the week of Aussie Millions.

the beer is free im going to assume your not from america and didn't know that gamblers get free drinks here.

so is this going to become like the phil lakk joke.

I do this all the time @ .10c-.25c on stars, when I run bad. I usually take a couple horrible beats during my session quit then I go get hammered and dust off like 250 playing 25c NLH. It's theraputic and fun I find and, its better than tilting off like another 1-2K playing 5-10.

Bump.

At one extreme, you could have Maurice Hawkins at your table.

At the other, you could have Kirk Morrison.
