There is a comment about about this ep that makes me pretty sure you're right but I cant get to the ep to confirm. Nice memory.

I have every episode downloaded and saved on a hard drive

PM me with an idea of how I should get it to you

If you go to the episode's thread, there is ususally a download link in the first post, or a few posts down, or modify the number in the link below to amazonnaws.

Really disappointed when I fired up my hard drive to find this:




Problem unsolved and if anyone else has it saved then please swoop in and save the day

183 works for me, but none of the other links you've posted work for me Hammerhands
08-23-2017 , 07:28 AM
Weird, I downloaded all three from the links.

Let's hope that Ishmael can download them too.

I always use the changing the number trick to try to get a head start on the new show before the thread arrives

Are you using a PC? Did you right click?

I was able to download all three with in explorer with right-click save target as.

I downloaded it in the FileBrowser app on my iPad, copy the link into the clipboard, open FB and then download from url.

This is weird. In chrome (which is what I was using before), I get the same as xander. 183 works but the other two give network errors. But in IE, 184/185 work just fine.



Thanks hammer/xander for you help on this!

Hi guys

Can you analyze/give thoughts on the thread about Edgewater Casino and a fairly interesting ruling ?

Will look up the link--it was either in NVG or Live Casino forum.

Thanks!

Edit: found it in Live Casino

Tchan, I would love it if you could give your thoughts on the first 30 sec of round 9 in the MayMac fight.
I havent heard a single mention of it, as if it didnt happen or it wasent a "moment".

It looks to be a opening that he completley messes up by clinching on instead of aiming on a follow-up shot.
He then also throws a premature jab, that makes ref reset the separation a second time.

Conor hits Floyd in the nuts, Floyd bends over either in pain, or feigning pain to get the referee to stop the action. Either way the referee intervenes and warns Conor about the low blow. Conor reaches out as if to touch gloves; Floyd reciprocates, and Conor uses the opportunity to get a free shot in on Floyd.

Somewhat dirty but as they say, protect yourself at all times.

In either case of low blow or not, the ref dosent jump in straight away. And Conor dosent capitalize on it? He starts hugging May? It got to be a huge mistake?

Is it ok for 2 players to discuss a 3d players tendencies in a foreign language while at the table? Is it ok to discuss tendencies via text (also while at the table)?

What are the 3 best home games after mid-January for The Canucks?

I see they don't play much on the weekends.

Chicago, Tampa, Boston, Rangers, Nashville, San Jose, Edmonton, Columbus, Vegas.

Too late in the season for Vegas to be intersting.

Boston, San Jose, Edmonton?

San Jose they always have a chance to beat.

We'll be so far out of playoff contention by then they'll all be yawners

Either the email got lost or censored.

Pokercast team,
Checking in from Houston 7,167,000 average hurricane Harvey inches of rainfall from kells

Thanks again for the great podcasts. It really keeps me going during this ****ty post hurricane commute.

As TChan's only fan (I was the only person other than himself to vote for him as favorite host in the SHEEP Game) I've been meaning to write in to congratulate him on having the baby and ask a few questions.

Questions: (probably should pause for answers)

1. Given his "Life is Poker" attitude and desire to maximize life EV - how does having a baby fit into that? Any opinions on an optimal baby strategy to maximize life EV? My best guess is to adopt a 4-5 year old. You remove any chance of complications and the annoying new born and toddler years while they pretty much only remember you as being the parent. Also, doing a benefit to society.

2. Given his new found hobby of homesteading, how the **** does he plan to make time to learn how to raise goats when he has a new born? Most new parents barely have time for a shower (which considering you'll be surrounded by goats you might not notice the smell, so you can skip them), let alone have time to learn a lifetime's worth of outdoor skills. I feel like the great saying: "Everyone has a plan until they get hit in the face" applies to this crazy plan of his. Except you could change the quote to "Everyone has a plan until the get hit in the face...with a baby". Example, my wife (former guam stripper from degen story way back) had great plans before the baby was born to have like 3 more. Within 1.5 days of his birth (still in the hospital), any plan to have more kids vanished. Someone set a line on how long until TChan returns to civilization and lets get some bets on it in the forum.

Other topics
1. Totally on Adam's side with knowing the gender ahead of time and the "science" argument of having baby's in hospitals. TChan think of the sample size - normally only super healthy, low risk, and most likely rich women have babies in a birthing center or at home. Therefore the samples and statistics aren't really comparable. Not saying a hospital is a great experience (our delivery nurse was a raging ***** who seemed pissed that we were there - not like I wanted to show up on new years eve either.)

2. There has to be a side bet going on the gender of the baby between adam and ross - its a pure flip

3. Can we have a Name TChan's baby "Madness Bracket" (similar to the best band, food, movie from pokercast years gone by). Obviously TChan is not obligated to name his baby whatever name wins, but I feel like some creative names might emerge.

Thanks again,

lol. I'm 1 episode behind, and I thought they said they were out of mail again. Must have misheard, and they've been saving this one since I sent it about a month ago.

My wife and I did something very similar to this, but we really weren't prepared either. We were interested in adopting two children and we were told that we would be on a waiting list for six months. We got a call about three boys (biological brothers) and there were living with us a couple weeks later.

The boys were 6, 8 and 9 so they didn't need constant care the way a baby does. I got a different job so either my wife or myself would always be home. That said, we did have some issues that most families don't have to deal with.

After their first day of school our youngest* followed another kid home from school. They were in an all-black neighborhood and a woman noticed that there was a white boy in her neighborhood wandering around looking confused. She called the police and they brought him home before we knew he was missing.

The police officer was angry. His passenger didn't know his address (it was 1880 and he only knew that "there were eights in it.)" The cop thought he had a runaway that was jerking him around, because someone six years old would certainly know his address.

Lesson learned. We made sure they memorized their address and phone number.

*He really wasn't ours yet, the adoption wasn't official for a year.

Adam,

congratulations on the weight loss to date, I've been sweating your updates every week.

my wife is a weight loss nutritionist who specialises in a protocol that generates incredible results. Her clients are almost exclusively hard gainer women who've tried everything and found nothing has worked. She generally can help them lose 6-7kg in 3 weeks, albeit sometimes it's more.

If you reach a point where you want to give yourself a boost/accelerate the loss closer to the weigh in date then I would pretty much guarantee that this will get you over the line on your bet as long as you follow her directions and the protocol.

It isn't hugely expensive, it isn't dangerous/unhealthy and you actually feel great on it.

PM me if you want more info or for me to introduce you to her.
