A thread to talk about poker

[General_Failure]

Great, can we have permission to breathe air while you're at it?

I don't know how to play poker. But I agree with Rusty's assessment. They have a poker radio show on down here and these guys are good to listen to for laughs. They get all fired up over dumb shtein and their ego's are huge. I've watched some of the WSOP , a few years ago, and these people look ripe for a good face punching. I love the douchebags who wear the ray bans and have the FULL TILT ads plastered all over their bodies.

If I was a rep at Full TIlt I'd make pasties and pay women to wear them on their boobies.


Speaking of Vegas...I've never been. We are going to go in January. Not on a bus, mind you...but we're gonna go for a 4-day weekend. I'm already pumped to go.

I'm going to run game at the craps tables.

Funjet and Continental.com have some pretty good air/hotel deals going on.

I'm deciding between staying at NY, NY...MGM or Planet Hollywood.

Label yours with a sharpie so we know.

A poker radio show. Wow.

[PhillyPhreak54]

A poker radio show. Wow.

Yeah. Two weirdo's with a massive following.

And they talk like they're boys with every WSOP player out there.

The only thing less entertaining that I can think of would be if they discussed Starcraft tournaments instead of poker.

All those places were further down the strip from where I was.....I definitely liked Treasure Island, but it was expensive.

BEst time of my life minus game 5 partII last year.


IGY-I agree the guy should have his privacy and whatever, but from what I've heard he just berates people that try and talk to him. Be a little humble, if you don't want people to bother you, it's not that hard to not be a fleshpop about it.

funny thing about it is I dont think I could stand 5 minutes around Ivey before wanting to roll. He might be one of the most miserable guys at the table and acts like he is above the rest (which he is)....and has the personality of a paper clip

I just wanted a guy that Ive been watching on tv for so many years to win the thing. Hell, I would of liked Hellmuth, Mike the mouth or Daniel Negreanu   to win just as much and I dont even like those guys one bit..well maybe I like Hellmuth a tad

knowing the names of "professional" poker players ftl.  you're blacklisted from the tailgate now. 

[Munson]

Daniel Negreanu actually seems like a decent guy. Hellmuth is a bitch but his whining is always good for a laugh.

[phattymatty]

i could name at least 50.  i don't watch it all that often but i keep up with the big tournaments and you see similar names over and over again.

[reese125]

its not that hard to know the names when they are shown almost every night on 1 of the 5 channels that poker is on....not to mention they run the WSOP re-runs more than Seinfeld

[ice grillin you]

watching it is where you go wrong....not knowing the names

change the channel dookie.  it's one thing to glance at it for a minute, which i do from time to time.....especially if i come across it at the right time and see that a couple of players are going all in.  but that's about the most i've ever seen at a time. 

[reese125]

who you kidding...you got the WSOP dvr'd and you know it. I want a true admission right now
