thinking about it, I do remember Scott V. becoming very frightned of Calef's run of straights...and the fact that Calef was on his right...to the point that anytime Calef bet Scott would instantly fold.
Rich also taught a thing or two about playing pocket rockets...
Then there was the glorious 4 on the board deal i gave...which apparently taught Calef that if there is 4 of a kind on the board the ace kicker wins it...unfortunate for him he didn't actually have an ace...but Greg V. was nice enough to not raise him...
and kudos to Rich for most improved....to come back from one or two chips left to that huge stack at the end was a sight to behold.

Big props on the poker rundown. The music list was a nice touch. How about some links to Amazon?

Just a reminder: there will be no game tomorrow, 3/4/05. For those who need their weekly fix, feel free to join our own Gabe "Garcia" Calderon at the Commerce Casino. He'll be there from 5:00pm 'til 5:00am. Or if you feel like traveling, head out to Las Vegas and meet up with Claudia Katz, Rich Moore and Scott Vanzo. They will be losing money at various casinos on the Strip and down town. Good luck all.

Here's a little more on the brief appearance by Dwayne Carey-Hill: During a break toward the end of the game, a bag of Orville Redenbacher's Kettle Corn-style® microwave popcorn was left unattended in the oven and burned. The charred popcorn was discarded and a second bag was prepared under closer supervision. After the game resumed, Dwayne, working late into the night directing his latest episode of Drawn Together, ran upstairs from his office thinking the studio was on fire. The players explained to him the burnt popcorn incident and Dwayne, still a bit rattled, returned to his office. The second bag of kettle corn-style popcorn was consumed.
Also, The Flaming Lips appear to be emerging as a poker favorite, making their second consecutive appearance in last night's game. Will they go for a third? A side pot has been established.
Lastly, mention must be made of the emerging tradition of opening the game with a ceremonial shot of Cazadores tequila. Salut!

have to say that I was kinda disapointed in the cards on friday...didn't seem to be falling well for anyone...except for that one hand of Scotts with the pocket queens that tripped on the flop and went boat on the river, which put a big hurt on Rahul (the first hand for him, which was unfortunate)... there wasn't alot of action... cant complain too much, first time in two weeks i ended in the positive catagory... but here is hoping the next match has better cards for everyone...
and a couple of welcomes go out to Dan and Ernie who joined us for the first time...not a bad first showing....both ended up...
we need more side betting on who is going to win the hand by the folded players...

And I have to say, this is a very boring thread, except, apparently to Rikki_rakko and chili-"size".
Get a life mi amigos.
Deal me out.

No game last Friday, 4/1/05, but we will be playing this Thursday, 4/7/05, in honor of Gregg Vanzo's triumphant return to the good ol' US of A.
See you all there! (except for you, FamilyGal)

Correction!
There is no such thing as Kellog's raisin Brand. I think Messeur Rakko meant Kellogs Raisin-Bran.
(Now I'll really get my @ss beat)

I stand corrected, poker. You're right, the cereal is called "Kellogs Raisin-Bran". I should have written it as "Kellogs raisin' bran." However, when you pointed out my mistake, you should have written it as "Kellogs raisin' bran". I think we good now.

If a train leaves downtown at 7p.m. going 45 mph, how many blessed Filet-o-fish could Steph buy with all her winnings?

None. She's got just enough time to get to RDS Frday and she'll need every penny for when she gets fileted.

Thanks for covering for me, chili. I apologize to all the Message Board readers who follow the RDS Poker thread religiously -- I know for a lot of you this thread is your life blood and not updating it borders on abuse and neglect.
Again, my deepest "I'm Sorry".
