  1. Why do recipe websites have more popups than porn sites? It’s so aggravating with all that shit on the side and bottom of your phone.

    Ran across one today where I had to navigate through adds above, to the right, and in the middle of her pages long dissertation about how these burgers changed her grandmothers life or some shit only to get to the recipe section AND THE BITCH REQUIRED ME TO REGISTER TO HER NEWSLETTER TO SEE IT. Fucking bullshit

  2. Bagged a 20 BB stack in the 2nd flight (of 6) in our $400 $100k guaranteed tourney. Return Sunday in the money

    729 entries. 75 returning, all in the money. Avg stack 243k. Chip leader 614k. 2/4/4k blinds to start the day

    I’m 68th with 93k, so just need 1-2 hands early to get comfortably in the mix

    $52k up top … LFG
  3. So there is a game now that is ONLY bomb pots!?! Super degen

    We only got bomb pots on our non-time games in the last year and it’s blown up with 2-3 players per table pushing hard on the others to play them.

    I scooped one the other night with 9865 rainbow that hit nut straights on the river both boards, somehow dodging 3 flush and 2 boat draws against 4 other all-in players. That $500-600 pot may have got me 1/3rd out of being bomb pot stuck

  4. The Texas economy would collapse without illegal immigrants.

    It’s starting to be tested here in FL. I’d guess there is A LOT of behind the scenes pressure to figure out a graceful exit from some of the policies enacted the last year

  5. I’m not sure it mattered, but I was several margaritas in, had A943 when the flop came AAA, and my holdem training had me jam while telling everyone to GTFO. I *should* have checked it through the river to let someone hang themself, as in PLO only the flop matters. In holdem, I could have been screwed by a higher kicker hitting the turn or river

  6. Best/fastest dealer in room says he gets most hands per hour at limit holdem. Since those players are pretty much only playing because of the high hand promotion, they go very fast even though they get to river nearly every hand

  7. Has anyone come across discussions about odds for winning high hand promotions?

    I’m trying to determine what the order of likelihood is for a given table to win:

    Limit Holdem: almost every hand gets to the river, which is good because you’ll see all 5 cards, but bad because every hand takes longer to play so you see fewer per hour

    No Limit: fewer hands get past flop, much less to the river. More hands per hour than limit, though

    PLO: must flop a winner, so only 3 community cards to work with rather than five, BUT you effectively have 6 shots per hand dealt because of the 6 combos in your hand. Probably same number of hands as limit holdem
