Pokercast Episode 98 - The Isildur1 Saga feat. Haseeb 'DogIsHead' Qureshi & William Jockusch - Page 2 - Two Plus Two Pokercast

Next time a guest says "I don't want to comment to much on that" regarding strategy, please respond ok thanks for coming on, up next...All guests do media for exposure that benefits them. If the media wouldn't put up with this crap, all guests would make better guests. Tom Dwan got signed by Full Tilt because he appears on High Stakes Poker etc. That's leverage for the media.

I hear what you're saying, but we are also not paying them for their appearances on the show either. A guest could just as easily flip that around on us and say the only reason people listen to your show is because of guests like me and you are not paying me anything to contribute to your show. Also, cutting off an interview with an interesting player becuase there is one question out of 20 they don't want to answer could hurt us in getting guests in the future. Most guests are usually very open and honest but obviously don't want to say things that they believe could hurt their bottom line.

I find that Matt Hawrilenko keeps it quite close to the vest whenever we discuss strategy with him, but I also notice he always wins.

I'm too lazy to read the thead (hey, im a poker pro after all!), so I dont know if this has been mentioned yet, but Adam mentioned that Isildur had a 3 card wrap, this was not correct. He had a 4 card wrap (any 3,6,7 or 8) to the nuts.

wow, just came across a thread in NVG that linked to an article about the winner of the BCPC:

B.C. poker champion faces manslaughter charge

Quote:

Sephon Sek has been charged with manslaughter and breaking and entering in connection with the murders of six men in a Surrey highrise in October 2007. On Sunday, Sek won the $364,364 grand prize in the B.C. Poker Championship at the River Rock casino in Richmond, B.C., although the police have asked the casino to hold Sek's winnings.

Eventually I'll do an index of these, but I likely won't have a chance for a while.

I'm too busy overachieving to dignify this comment with a joke about:

your mom.
you potentially being a homosexual while asserting that there is nothing wrong with that.
horse porn and your role in said horse porn.
your potentially inappropriate relationship with dangeraw.
your penis size

Also, I cleaned out your locker like 6 months ago, you still haven't picked up all your Kim Chi.

The previous owners of the house I bought were Korean and I can confidently declare Kim Chi sucks.

my wife said the fridge smelled like kim chi so she made me buy her one of these. Now I feel like Owen Wilson from 'Meet The Parents'. When anyone comes over I have to show them my twin sub-z's.

"Now, for the floor that you're walking on, I chose this Bolivian wormwood."

Something between metaphor and venting in case the story of his displeasure got out, I guess.

I haven't read enough of his stuff to know what his parameters of "common sense" are, lol.

Hey, there is NOTHING innapropriate about my relationship with dangeraw.

(Not that there would be anything wrong with that.)

great show as always...

sklansky min was good this week. so true what he says.

i just have a question tho. i live in Australia, and i really would like to play in your free roll. but it's on at like 3am on a Monday morning. i think. it's a really bad time for me.

i was wondering if there could be one for everyone in Australia.. maybe once a month or something. i don't know what the number are on the free roll you have now. but maybe we could get a few Aussies in there..
