Nice re-cap by Chili, but gets an A-.Didn't report"big winner" of the night, and "best funny quote of the night". But then again, maybe nobody said anything funny.-------GROG

Kudos on the recap, Chili. Maybe the RDS poker whould have its own category? By the way, I'd like to throw in for nest quote of the night Albert's admonition to Eric Whited: "You better just chill, E."

Apologies to Chiliman, you DID report that DAVE LEE was the big winner, so we're changing your score from A- to an A, but no A+ since Muerto had to supply the quote of the night.

What a bloodbath! By the end of the night, the whole thing degenerated into the equivelent of four guys with baseball bats trying to beat each other into submission...my dominatrix could learn a thing or two from this group!
Another favorite (paraphrased) quotes of the night:
Rich: (after Chili's afore-mentioned Split Pot Dance) You're celebrating? Chili's celebrating because I lost! Chili: No, I'm celebrating because it's a split pot! Rich: Which is the same as celebrating because I lost, you son of a b!tch!
It was a night of magic...!

Other notable highlights:
• chili's new good luck talisman: a big hunk of Tennessee iron, straight from the mean streets of Knoxville. Seemed to serve him well.
• Special Guest appearance by none other than "Kid Kanada" himself, Mr. Bobby Bowen.
• Albert and Dave trading jabs over who could draw the most disgusting female genitalia.
Again, a magically night.

See there Chili. You could stand to learn a thing or two from rikki_rakko.He adds that little extra spice in there that makes the poker thread the best thread on the board.

I can give the basics...big winner...what we played...when blinds were raised... maybe a few play by plays on some interesting hands...but when it comes to the vernacular there is only one Rikki...and I'll leave it to her...
will add one more play by play of last fridays game...
most impressive all-in: Bari Kumar He went all in on a number of occasions...very aggressive, that Bari. but the one I am talking about was when he busted out...had a smoke...came back...rebought back in...and while I was getting the chips Albert dealt the cards for the next hand...I came back...Bari took the chips from me and then immediately pushed em ALL IN...I was next to act...sat down...looked at king 10 off suite and I think I said..."fuck you...how great can your cards be that you do that? and if they are that great...its stupid to move in like that...who's gonna call you? I'm going for a smoke!" I got up and folded... when I came back Bari was stacking 80.00 worth of chips...what do I know? absolutely nothing!...apparentely he had queens....

can't resist...
most expensive hand: pocket kings...nobody could win with them...and with a starting hand like that you are going to lose a bit of change...they just wouldn't hold up the entire night...just ask Gregg, Bari, and Rich...
oh... and happy birthday johnlysenko!!!

Dear Jesus, I believe you misread my last post. It said: Jesus H Christ's posts of scantily clad females with cards is the other SPICE that makes this the BEST damnED THREAD on this webboard!
It clearly says FEmale. But, you DID get the CARD part right.I do appreciate the effort, though.

Oh, I get it now..... you're trying to embarrass me. I recognize those cards. Look, I was young, new to LA, and I needed the money. I was in great shape at the time, and I figured a few naked photos couldn't hurt.Who knew they would come back to haunt me after all these years. But, that's all in the past. I live my life with no regrets. What's done is done. It's ancient history, and I've moved on. ( By the way, you wouldn't happen to know where I can purchase those cards would you?)

Now your getting it, Chili! Pocket Kings getting crapped on all night, that's the kind of little gem that adds that little extra spice. (I had a King in my hand and paired it with one on the board and got my @ss kicked by Rahul's trip 9s that night as well -----damned Kings!)

Poker Tip #47: If you're gonna put up a pair of Kings in a big pot showdown, make sure they're not gay.

WOW!...that was a crazy game of poker....
Date: 8/5/05
Start Time: 8:30 pm Game: Limit Texas Hole'em Buy In: $40.00 Blinds: $.50/$1.00 Went NO LIMIT: 11:00 pm End Time: 12:00 am Players: Chili-Size Rahul Bhushan Dave Lee Geraldine Symon Gregg Vanzo Bari Kumar Jeff Mertz Ernie Keen Rachel Stratton Rich Moore
1st Dealer: Geraldine Symon 1st Pot: Ernie Keen
Music: The White Stripes - White Blood Cells Chili's Poker Mix - MIA - Arular No Thanks - The 70's Punk Rebellion
Big Winner: Dave Lee
wow! WOW! wow! you would not believe how much money Dave won... UNREAL!...he had a mound of chips even before we went no-limit... Had an uncanny sense of when to fold and play...
once we went no-limit...things started to get testy...the third time I raised before the flop I actually got pelted with chips...OUCH!...thanks Jeff...
Dave was catchin trips like nobodys business...
Lucky number of the night: 5... (for Dave anyway) he won with a five in his hand at least 7 times.
not alot of memorable hands except for a couple of the final ones...
the first one...and this is for you Kaliman...was Rahual's ALL IN...he had pocket jacks...got a call from Dave...who had pocket 5's and a huge stack of chips...I think he was just being generous...and thought maybe he might win...flop comes...can't remember the other cards but one was a 5...so he tripped up on the flop...and to add insult to injury got another 5 on river for quad fives....
the last hand of the evening...I was first to act...pocket jacks also...raised to $5.00... wanted a call from Dave but his six sense told him to fold...BLAST...but Gregg moved all-in with a pair of 4's... think it raised the bet to like $16 or $18... I called... the flop was 3 J 3... and Gregg was drawing slim... then the turn put the nail in the coffin... another jack... the river although inconsequencial was a 10...
quote of the night: Jeff Mertz...can't remember the exact wording but was to the effect of "Hey, Chili! while you were outside smoking I took your rock (it was what I was using to place on top of my cards) and I rubbed it on my @ss!"
well... although we will all regret it... I'm hoping Dave comes back next week... I mean you can't keep going up against pocket queens with a 5 3 of hearts and keep winning... Can you? Jesus, I hope not...
Dave Lee is officially the Gus Hansen of Rough Draft Studios...

Note to poker players: J.H.C. no longer sanctions and/or blesses the mid-game switch from limit to no limit. If you are down to a small stack you are at an extreme disadvantage, thus causing an advanced case of "fuck yous" from those small stacked to those that can play a strong hand cause of the largedness of their stack of chips. when you only have $20 in chips it's hard to justify a call on a preflop raise of $10 when holding a suited K 2. it's kinda like starting the tournament with an 1/8 th of the chips everyone else has. I have no one to blame but myself for continuing to play. Next time the game switches, JHC will be calling it a night. So, yea, chili... this picture sums up how i hope you spend your winnings...

Jesus, I understand your pain...in my defense...I think I only raised to 5.00 unless there was already a bet of 5.00 then if I raised I had to raise at least the incriment of the bet...which would of been to 10.00...but I agree...maybe if we are going to play no-limit it has to be at the begining and decided upon before the game starts....wasn't helping anyone but Dave anyway...I did have pocket 9's and think I made the correct play...but
still think Bowen should free roll you for your act of kindness...
as for the pix...think that is a picture of Dave not me...
anyway Bari is the aggressive one....I mean raisin to 10.00 before flop with pocket 4's then the flop comes As Ad 7d and he leads out with another 10.00 bet...turn puts like a 6c or something then Bari bets another 10.00 on turn...river puts a 9s on the board...I had 9d queen d...so I had a busted flush and a pair of 9's...so I bet 10.00 and then bari raised my 10.00 bet another 5.00 by going all in...that is aggressive... this is another hand that Dave had an uncanny sense to stay in just calling all the way...what did he have? you ask. Queens, Kings... maybe an ace with a bad kicker...no Dave stayed in with pocket 10's and took a huge pot...

it seems as though 2 weeks ago, the game was fun. fun is the last thing i found in this weeks game. and that has nothing to do with the money i lost. i usually lose money... it was a ten dollar raise, i.e. about half off what most players had in their stacks, thus making it a chump move akin to that of a 12 yr old, and clearly not in the spirit of the game. location location location. your vast memory for all these hands reveals that you miss the point... our game will never be televised on espn, and it's rarely worth the attention it receives here. i might add, Mr. Lee played with the utmost decorum. i applaud his gamesmanship. all respect of your lord and saviour.
walkin on water, JHC

ok...seems as though I offend thee...but I don't remember ever leading out with a 10.00 raise...but if I did..I do appoligize for the aggressive play... but I think to calm the game down a notch we should just keep it limit this week...this weekly game should be fun and I would like it to continue... so for this week's game plan on limit hold-em blinds(.50/1.00) oh please Jesus, forgive me for I have sinned...

thankyou for the absolution Jesus, I very much appreciate it... really wasn't trying to bully the small stacks just trying to protect my hand... but played it way too aggressively... but what you said made alot of sense...I think we should treat our nite of poker like a nite of drinking...you shouldn't start off the nite drinking "budweiser" (i.e. limit poker) and switch mid nite to "tequila" (i.e. no-limit). Somebody is gonna get sick...

Oh my Lord, have make-up sex already, this whole I'm sorry no I'm sorry shit is making me sick already. The hand was played correctly but at the wrong time. If want to play poker that how it's played. Your problem was that you shifted to No-Limit a big No-No if your short stacked. But If you agreed to play you shouldn't whine. Real men play with-out crying.
