Playing in my monthly tournament on Saturday night. Most players are fairly solid, but there are a couple donkeys in there. Sitting in the BB and I look down to see 2 Aces. MP raises to 1200 (blinds were 300/600), button calls and I re-raise to 3200. MP folds and button calls. Flop is Q 10 10. I put in enough to put button all in (around 5-6k). He snap calls and flips over A 10 offsuit. Motherfucker. I hate this fucking game sometimes. Who calls a raise and a re-raise with that hand? I had been playing pretty tight up to that point. MP says after the hand that he folded KK.

aspen.
no lines and there's 2 mountains that are your speed. pretty much all of buttermilk (the greatest hill on earth for parents with small children) and half of snowmass are beginner/intermediate.
Sounds like something someone from Carbondale would suggest...

I can't say shit about this, I rigged up two paddles on atari to run faster on Decathlon back in the day to set a world record score and get printed in the activision monthly newsletter.
only to find out Activision found out about it and would not accept any records.
of course I was 10 at the time, not 20something like this dork
How did Activision find out about it? Your mom snitch on you?

Bought Ikon passes for the whole family. We are doing a quick trip to steamboat right around New Years which I am hoping it won’t be as crowded as the Summit county resorts. We will also do another trip for spring break. Right now thinking of aspen, winter park, Utah or trying big sky. We are mainly beginners/intermediates. Like my trails like my women, groomed. We will be driving. What does Surly say?
The week between Christmas and New Years is the busiest time of year anywhere you're going to go. Winter Park is a shitshow that week. So is Summit, Vail, and everywhere else in CO. Don't know about Utah but I would imagine the same there. Bring the big wallet if you go to Aspen.

me either. It's unlikely I would ever do that. Hell, even if I had that 904 Carrera GTS above, I would drive that thing. Granted, that may be easy to say because none of my cars are "collectable" in any way whatsoever, but even guys like me with easily attainable cars like the 911 you have people who let them sit in the garage like it's not going to depreciate. Crazy to me. Cars that would, in theory, hold steady and maybe appreciate slightly like the F430 isn't enough potential return to me to not drive that frequently. It would have to be some extremely rare thing like the 904, or 288GTO Ferrari for me to let it be a garage queen, and frankly even the F 288 GTO, for me, anyway, I wouldn't drive as much for fear some dipshit would hit me more so than worrying about my potential "resale". It's a car. drive it.
Shit, even if I had something like an F40 or Porsche 918 Spyder in the garage, I would have to drive it. Cars are meant to be driven, not just looked at.

my brother in law has a 2006 F430 that he bought new back in the day. Gosh I love that car. The sound that V8 makes is just pure awesome. He never drives the thing, and has had it in offsite storage for probably 10 years now. I bet it has < 3,000 miles on it. Shame. I'd drive that thing daily. you only live once.
I'll never understand why people buy cars like that and don't drive them. I don't want to own any car I can't just go drive whenever I want to.

Maybe it’s kind of an intelligence test for our shaggy, err...surly brethren.
How many of those of you that enjoyed it watched it sober?
I enjoyed it for mindless entertainment. It was definitely stupid.
Plot spoiler
SpoilerAnd the plot feels awfully lame. Some Senator and the Venezuelan dictator wanted to make money illegally mining Tantalum in Venezuela? Just feels weak. Not every plot has to be a terrorist attack that gets thwarted, but I expected something more meaningful than that.

It's a joke. Corvettes, especially Z06s are known to overheat on the track. So i referred to the GT-R as the GT-R Z06. But now that i have to explain it to you, it's a lot less clever.I assumed when I was discussing the heat soaked turbos, that one would assume I was talking about the Nissan. Sorry not to specify the manufacturer.

Yeah, he's not the best player, but I did have a tight table image at the time. Button did not notice.
