New chips coming soon...

Playing PLO four handed online. I have limited experience with villain, but he's definitely made an impression. Villain tripled up a while back when he cold-called a re-re-pot preflop bet with a double-suited, double-gapped hand (7,8,10,J - or very similar). So he's certainly not afraid to...

BC (Before Covid) I was starting to think about buying a new car, and now I'm seriously considering it. I'm not in a place where I need to immediately replace my current vehicle so I can choose to wait, but it seems like now is a great time to buy. The car will be a sensible choice and in...

New league, new players, new rules... 4 players out of 24 left in the tournament. Cash payouts are $30, 70, 130, 250. Points payouts are 9, 10, 11, 13. UTG (4BB) folds Button (14BB) folds action on the SB (6BB) holding Kc2c BB (28BB) BB is a solid, aggressive player. UTG is tight...

My son graduates high school this month and I thought that the ABC Gifts China clay solids would make a nice gift for him to take to college. He likes aquariums, hence the theme. Just slapped this together this morning, thoughts? Also, what is the better gift; a finished set, or letting him...

Below is the tracking history for a Christmas gift that I ordered on December 16th. They got it within 20 minutes of my house, but then decided it needed to see Guam before I could bring it home. It is currently somewhere in the vicinity of Hawaii, but I don't know if it's heading towards Guam...

So, last night we're playing the post-tournament cash game and round about midnight I notice water leaking into the host's basement. We take a quick look at his sump (dead) and ask if we can do anything to help cleanup. Our host is dropping ear-blistering profane rants, but doesn't ask for...

I've seen lots of mixed Casino sets and I've seen custom tribute sets for a single casino. Has anyone seen a custom set that has tribute chips to multiple casinos?

So November is shaping up to be Trever's month of poker; I've got the internationally-acclaimed Courage Meatup the first weekend, my laughably-bad league game the next weekend and am heading to Vegas the following weekend so that I can take advantage of a 'use it or lose it' free flight...

Nice write-up of playing card history for anyone with an interest: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2017/08/the-lost-origins-of-playing-card-symbols/537786/

Saw this on 2+2 and thought I'd post it here too. Poker pro jnandez87 is doing a bankroll challenge and shared this hand. .10/.20 (euros) PLO 6max All relevant players have 100bb Folded to button who raises to 3bb J raises to 10bb with 4d As 10s Jh BB calls Button calls Flop is 8s 7s 6c J...

I've got the chance to buy an item for my non-poker collection, but am right at the line for whether it meets my criteria. The item itself meets my rules for purchasing (assuming listing is accurate). The price is at the top of my range for what I'd be willing to pay. Literally, to the...

I play PLO with a guy who reliably loses his mind after losing a big hand. Before he goes nuts, he is a pretty smart player, aggressive preflop, semi-aggressive post-flop and it's really tough to get him to payoff with a worse hand on the river. But, once he loses a big hand, particularly if...

So I won a pretty large bet (2017 is already better than 2016!) and the loser will pay me in either cash or Bitcoin, but is offering me a small bonus if I take the Bitcoin option. I get the general theory of what Bitcoin is and how it works, but have zero understanding of the practical aspects...

A buddy of mine has been running this pool for over 10 years, and he gave the OK for me to extend an invitation to everyone here. PM me your email address if you want to play. The beauty of this pool is that you have action each week, including the postseason, yet you only make your picks...

There isn't enough strategy involved in this hand to qualify as a strategy thread, but this was a fun hand, comments on all streets are welcome, but I'm going to skip right to the end. .25/.50 Online PLO 6 max table This is my very first hand and I post in the cutoff UTG ($50) raises to $2.25...

Dr. Heimlich still alive and saving lives http://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2016/05/26/henry-heimlich-finally-uses-famed-maneuver/85003350/

So Budweiser is rebranding itself as "America" for the summer. http://nypost.com/2016/05/10/budweiser-is-changing-its-name-to-america-this-summer/ I guess that means they're going to change Bud Light to "Canada"?
