He had to do something with his time....he tried golf but gave up because he was paying $100/hour for lessons with nothing to show for it.<br /><br />I believe he was living in another state but recently moved to Vegas to "retire." Nice guy, tough player.<br /><br />Also, at Bally's he used the same line I heard him use at MGM, "This is the worst game in Vegas right now. If you look it up on Bravo, you will see that this is the worst game anywhere right now."Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05767080296489122846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-18979063432507682182014-12-20T08:12:38.189-08:002014-12-20T08:12:38.189-08:00I think I played with him that Wednesday.

He wasn't from Vegas I don't believe, but was here for awhile grinding poker. He claimed to have recently sold a business and had money to live off of for awhile. cokeboy99https://www.blogger.com/profile/02841325742367258391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-24604784585152658452014-12-19T14:49:41.425-08:002014-12-19T14:49:41.425-08:00ok i love the upgrade in the Boobie dept. just whe...ok i love the upgrade in the Boobie dept. just when that skinny means too much maintence(i cant spell 2 lazy to google) like gluten free/organic sheeeeeeeeit,exercise like walking to mailbox instead of driving, and buying dietsoda or drinking water.

The shorter one was not from me.<br /><br />I agree with you on the promo chasing, I would make a bet that is a little smaller to make him interested as well as charge him for the over indulgence in the pot. Two things might happen we hit the promo hand or he gets one more heart.<br /><br />First is good, second is inevitable if he did in fact has the one card that beats us.<br /><br />GolfProAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-53736911784651446482014-12-19T06:27:54.967-08:002014-12-19T06:27:54.967-08:00My thought got cut short because we left for work,...My thought got cut short because we left for work, but yeah, put yourself out there, and if people don't like you, that's their problem... :)~Coachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00063024399528751971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-77385498827581879892014-12-19T04:23:24.960-08:002014-12-19T04:23:24.960-08:00Right, but you said that you had already mentioned...Right, but you said that you had already mentioned the blog early in the convo.

I have cards printed up that I can give out with the URL, but I almost always chicken out before giving them to people.<br /><br />One thing is that I fear I'll have to censor myself when I write the post, knowing they might read it. But in this case, when I said goodbye to her, Maggie did say she would look for my Ante Up columns (something I forgot to mention originally and just now added to the post--thank you).

Before this trip, I had never seen him before, but it sure does look like he was a regular now. Saw him there most nights and he was talking about have a big stack of chips for the freeroll, like he had played something like 90 hours there that week. <br /><br />Funny thing is, when I played at Bally's on Monday nite (remember MGM was closed for four days to remodel), I saw him there, along with a few other MGM regs.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05767080296489122846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-91357596471401000322014-12-18T23:13:41.182-08:002014-12-18T23:13:41.182-08:00Thanks, Nick The bonus probably wasn't worth ...Thanks, Nick The bonus probably wasn't worth chasing, but really, I can't make him fold any hand he has that's drawing to a hand that will beat me.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05767080296489122846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-37124318994141433482014-12-18T21:28:14.601-08:002014-12-18T21:28:14.601-08:00You need to be more proactive in giving people (es...You need to be more proactive in giving people (especially the 'Maggie's') the info. on how to find your blog, especially after they know that it exists...

He is a reg there, right? Every time I saw him he had a good sized stack ... and seemed to be having fun. One time when he was complaining about his table and daring anyone to challenge him, I told him either his stack needed to get a little smaller or mine needed to get a little bigger. I told him I didn't give a crap about the money, but just wanted to felt him for the honor. He thought it was pretty funny.lightning36https://www.blogger.com/profile/05641629003610446976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-25178726588357503112014-12-18T18:18:58.596-08:002014-12-18T18:18:58.596-08:00I think your analysis of the open ended straight f...I think your analysis of the open ended straight flush draw hand was correct. If he has the Ah, Kh, a set, or possibly 2 pair, he won't fold to a reasonable bet. So, seeing the river, trying to hit the straight flush, isn't a terrible play. Just beware of a 4th heart that doesn't give you a straight flush, or a card that pairs the board on the river. Realistically, you have a better chance of seeing a card that beats you, than one of the 2 that gives you a straight flush. And, if he has the Kh, you are down to one straight flush card. I'd say ignore the promo and play it as you normally would, only because the odds are so slim of hitting the card(s) you need to make the straight flush.cokeboy99https://www.blogger.com/profile/02841325742367258391noreply@blogger.com
