  1. Playing Sunday night free roll at shuffle 512. Holy shit what a shit show. first hand I get AcKcKsTd. Flop kq8c, pot it get two callers, runs out 3c,2c, more than double up. Second hand seat one puts her cards down toward the dealer, dealer mucks them. Fat old karen goes nuts, old Bahstan dick head in seat two keeps egging her on. Floor comes over, asks the dealer what happened, seat 1 and 2 won’t shut up and keep talking over dealer, floor tells them to shut up and act like adults. Karen grabs dealers arm dealer tells her dealer tells her never to touch him, Karen guarantees she won’t tip him ever again, he looks like he wants to punch her, ends up standing up and walking outside. floor deals the next few hands till new dealer shows up. currently 8 runners, rebuys for another hour. In second only because someone rebought for $100
  2. Announcers talk up Gordon for 10 minutes, immediately gives up an HR
  3. Yeah, my first thought the rule While standing on the rubber, throws to a base without stepping directly toward that base;
  4. Yes to both. I'm a way better tournament player than cash player and these PLO and big O tournaments are so soft you have to really run bad not to cash. There are always players in these tournaments that never play bigo or plo. I mainly play poker for the enjoyment of playing, and knowing I can get 3-4 hours of entertainment for under $100 is a good thing. I'm averaging $30 an hour and cashed in 65% of the ones I've played in the last year. Plus there's only a few big o cash games in town. I went to play big o at red star last night and it didn't make so I went up to TCH for the tournament. Red star runs Sunday, Tuesday, Friday and there's an underground game that runs Monday, Wednesday, Thursday but they only make about half the time. 52 social runs big o sporadically and shuffle 512 used to run Monday and Thursday but it dried up. PLO runs all the time at the Lodge but it's a complete shit show. You need to bring 5+ buyins. Buy in for $300 and you'll be all in if you play to the river on a majority of hands. I was talking to a dealer from the lodge last night who was playing the tournament at TCH and he was talking about the 1-1 PLO they started running at the lodge to try to have a small game people could enjoy but everyone buys in for the max $300 and half the table is all in on every hand for the first hour and if you come to the table a few hours after it opens everyone has $2-$5k.
  5. Blacklab's month of poker is off to a good start. Wife and kiddos out of town for a few weeks so I'm going to play a bunch for a few weeks. Played the big O tournament at 52 social last night. ICM chopped with 4 left and took home 634 after putting in around 150. Had second biggest stack. Only one table ran for the tournament, maybe 12 people total paid. Garuntee of $2000, I have to think there was a pretty big overlay. Tonight hit up TCH for their PLO tournament and we did an even chop with 7 left. $2280 prize pool so we all got $325. I put in around $130 so ended up around +$200.
  6. I have a buddy who when he was in high school sent Dean a letter asking for a basketball scholarship. Dean sent a very nice letter back unlike every other coach he sent a letter to. He ended up walking on at UT.
  7. Lake Austin very nice tonight
  8. Pitcher in sunlight, home plate in shadow
  9. Wind is blowing out to left field
  10. There's a newly created thread if you want to argue about last years defense and personnel. Further posts on that topic in this thread will earn some time off.
  11. this is the transfer thread. Take this defensive coaching slapfight somewhere else. Off topic posts will be taking time off
  12. Made it home alive. Pro tip: Don't anchor in the middle of Lake Austin with one tiny light when it's pitch dark outside. I almost hit your dumb ass.
  13. If there’s a boat crash on lake austin tonight it’s me. got to able’s/hula hut at 6:30. Hula hut is closed so went to ables. Everyone else went too. Waited an hour for a table and over an hour for food. Got on waitlist at 6:30 and am waiting on check now
  14. if you'd like to discuss gun control, your team, the other team, voting and associated shit there's a board for that that has a thread for that. This thread is for news about this incident.
  15. I don’t mind being anchored near a boat with their tunes cranked up, but could you turn it down when it sounds like a 20 year old car stereo from Walmart?
  16. Stepped outside to go get the murder hornet and was stung by a hornet. Alanismorsette.gif
  17. They look like plastic speed bumps from a parking lot
  18. Is there anything in life better than playing in a tournament 8 hours, outlasting 124 people and finishing 20th when top 15 get paid?
  19. We had a buick skylark when I was a kid. My mom always wanted a Cadillac and I remember her seeing the Cimarron and saying they finally made one for me. Sounds like it was lucky she didn't get one.
  20. if you don't need the handicap in a separate column and are just looking at it why not instead of =A1 do a =CONCAT(A1,concat(" (",concat(A2,")"))) which will result in a "FJ (5)" concat on google docs only allows 2 items thus the messy syntax
  21. I've tried to find the formula but all I can find are some vauge descriptions of it but I think it's like this, if anyone knows better please correct me. The state sets a value per student and then the school district has to send anything above that to the state. Found this graph when trying to figure it out. Houston has only 1.34 times the tax base, but 2.8 times the number of students. So they get to keep more of the money they collect as it's based on the number of students you have.
