  1. Dropped another one from 170 yards this morning for an eagle on a par 5. Saw this one violently disappear but still wasn’t sure until I looked in the hole

    I was playing solo, so two balls. “Player 2” in the background drained a 15 footer for birdie on top of the eagle ball

    Hell of a match with “Player 1” choking on #9, my final hole for the morning before kickoff

    Would have a pretty big impact on my handicap if either score counted (they don’t bc playing two balls isn’t legal)

  2. Danny is an all time great, idolized and called an inspiration by many other professional drummers, which is a pretty good indicator if you’re otherwise unsure. While his skill is clearly exceptional, it’s his creativity when writing his complex drum parts that sets him apart.

    This drum break (6:35) broke minds.

    This thread is so off the fucking rails it doesn’t even make sense. We are a defensive collapse and a game Quinn played significantly injured through away from Quinn being a top 3 heisman candidate and you morons are in here arguing about running backs in different conferences. 
    I’m glad Texas is back in the national conversation and all, but seriously can we focus this fucking thread on Quinn and what he’s done and what he needs to do better? 

    You must be new here

    Modern toilets all seem to be so stupidly proprietary with their fill valve mechanisms. I have learned the hard way that it's important to match the exact same part number - not merely a part with the same name from the same company that's allegedly cross-compatible (but in reality isn't, due to a very minor difference....)

    Yep, so I just replace the whole mechanism rather than just parts

  5. That’s the worst. Have to kill the water at the street to fix it. Had the exact same problem while fixing a fill valve myself.

    Other than that, replacing/tuning your fill valves is probably something you should get comfortable doing. I’ve probably done a dozen by now. They just don’t last

  6. These legit high level events really give me a perspective of where my game is at. Much like shot taking in big cash games it’s always a slap in the face of reality when I’m clearly one of, if not the, weakest players at the table.

    First, it’s fairly obvious when you’re being targeted. We all see it, know it, and feel like there’s not much you can do about it short of either taking some questionable risks or nitting it up, both of which suck in a $5k buyin!

    It’s also interesting when you’re just a spectator in a hand and you see cards revealed at showdown that are well outside the range you anticipated. I often find myself asking if I ever could have taken that line as successfully as they did.

    Finally, the number of 3bets and 4bets I saw was astounding yesterday. Happened virtually every hand with an EP raiser. I was also surprised how frequently I would see 2x opens (perhaps a big contributor to the 3bets) and even open limps. One guy would then just randomly open 5-6x, often still getting 3bet! It was wild to watch

  7. Terrible level. Kept getting 3bet big pre-flop with hands I was trying to steal blinds with, then couldn’t even find a hand worth jamming before dinner.

    7500 coming back to 500/1k/1k so the end may be near…

  8. HJ opens to 2700. I make it 10k from BTN w QQ. He calls 21.5k pot

    K74 rainbow. Chk chk

    A. Chk chk

    3 river and he makes it 15k. I fold and he shows AK. We had both just chopped prior pot AK vs AK.

    27.5k. Not great

    [mention=241]Lurch[/mention] What tournament is this and who is Brad?

    Sorry, discussed upthread. WPT Jax Main Event with Brad Owen
  9. Brad opens HJ to 1500. I call in SB w As4s. BB calls. 5100 pot

    Ks8s3c. Checks to Brad who makes it 1700. We both call. 10.2k pot

    4h. Checks to Brad who makes it 7k. Only I call. 24.2k pot

    Td. Check check and he wins w 87o
