lol!

the only way to resolve this is for him to push all on another hand and allow to decide whether to call or fold.

also valor if you're playing any live nosebleed cash games soon and need someone to share a room with i have a mexican friend you should meet.

posting an in joke about one poker message board on another poker message board in a thread that exists only as an in joke about the other message board is probably the lamest thing i've ever done

Is this the type low content noise you were complaining about in your thread yesterday.....:)


What scares me is when people like Muso who are younger than me are called old.

In my belligerent old age crankyness I agree with his hatred for young bland kids with no creative streak who repeat ad nausem the buzz words they read on 'cool' sites. 2 + 2 is not 4 anymore. next we will hear people saying do the Math? Do the Math......We call it MATHS over here.....Gawd I hate sons of sam..

Amusing..funny enough I was being amusing also... this generation gap is hard to bridge..

I don't hate American culture, I just like Irish culture and Irish kids remembering they are Irish not American...
Where would I be without Scrubs to cheer me up?

Lloyd,

Shame on you.

Nope , I'm Willie Clynes Esq. older and more handsome than Rooney Dives.

come on people,the signal to noise ratio may be dodgy but america has probably contributed more to world culture in the last hundred years than any other country on the planet.

This is true, particularly in the last ten years.
But for us pinkofag, bleeding heart, guardian-reading, lilly-livered-lefty-liberal, progress-hating, hypocritical, profit-fearing liars (for lack of a better term), much of this influence has been entirely regrettable.

The worry, as I see it, with the worldwide spread of U.S. culture (coke ads in the deserts; macdonalds, starbucks, subway et al driving out indiginous business to make the world's high streets as uniform as possible; etc), is that it tends to eat up other cultures. It doesn't exist alongside the existent culture, it gradually and insidiously replaces it.

anyway, I'd push, what's the question?

cardshark202

Does this mean we all have to hate valor now and piss take in every thread he posts?

Solksjaer

You are correct American culture is THE Culture. I suppose this thread needs a poker question or it should be moved to
Another forum..

Question from the Major of Hiroshima ...I've got AK and I'm in 2nd position , Hiro is sitting to my left. with 3 other players left to act, now there a big mofo yoke raining down from the sky above, do I ask Hiro to disrupt the time space continuem and save us all, (and trust he won't look at my cards) or do I push in my stack and go with a potential coin flip.........too late ARRRRggggggghhhh!

Couldn't help myself, possibly my favourite movie quote of all time:

Reg:All right, but apart from the sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?
Attendee: Brought peace?
Reg: Oh, peace - shut up!
Reg: There is not one of us who would not gladly suffer death to rid this country of the Romans once and for all.
Dissenter: Uh, well, one.
Reg: Oh, yeah, yeah, there's one. But otherwise, we're solid.

A bit longer, but this type of deductive resoning is a crucial skill in Poker. My favourite film scene ever. Classic.

---

FIRST VILLAGER
We have found a witch. May we burn her?
ALL
A Witch! Burn her!
BEDEVERE
How do you know she is a witch?
ALL
She looks like one. Yes, she does.
BEDEVERE
Bring her forward.


They bring her forward - a beautiful YOUNG GIRL (MISS ISLINGTON) dressed up
as a witch.

WITCH
I am not a witch. I am not a witch.
BEDEVERE
But you are dressed as one.
WITCH
They dressed me up like this.
ALL
We didn't, we didn't!
WITCH
This is not my nose, It is a false one.

BEDEVERE takes her nose off.

BEDEVERE
Well?
FIRST VILLAGER
... Well, we did do the nose.
BEDEVERE
The nose?
FIRST VILLAGER
And the hat. But she is a witch.
ALL
A witch, a witch, burn her!
BEDEVERE
Did you dress her up like this?
FIRST VILLAGER
... Um ... Yes ... no ... a bit ... yes... she has got a wart.
BEDEVERE
Why do you think she is a witch?
SECOND VILLAGER
She turned me into a newt.
BEDEVERE
A newt?
SECOND VILLAGER
(After looking at himself for some time)
I got better.
ALL
Burn her anyway.
BEDEVERE
Quiet! Quiet! There are ways of telling whether she is a witch.

ARTHUR and PATSY ride up at this point and watch what follows with interest

ALL
There are? Tell up. What are they, wise Sir Bedevere?
BEDEVERE
Tell me ... what do you do with witches?
ALL
Burn them.
BEDEVERE
And what do you burn, apart from witches?
FOURTH VILLAGER
... Wood?
BEDEVERE
So why do witches burn?
SECOND VILLAGER
(pianissimo)
... Because they're made of wood...?
BEDEVERE
Good.

PEASANTS stir uneasily then come round to this conclusion.

ALL
I see. Yes, of course.
BEDEVERE
So how can we tell if she is made of wood?
FIRST VILLAGER
Make a bridge out of her.
BEDEVERE
Ah ... but can you not also make bridges out of stone?
ALL
Ah. Yes, of course ... um ... err ...
BEDEVERE
Does wood sink in water?
ALL
No, no, It floats. Throw her in the pond Tie weights on her. To
the pond.
BEDEVERE
Wait. Wait ... tell me, what also floats on water?
ALL
Bread? No, no, no. Apples .... gravy ... very small rocks ...
ARTHUR
A duck.

They all turn and look at ARTHUR. BEDEVERE looks up very impressed.

BEDEVERE
Exactly. So... logically ...
FIRST VILLAGER
(beginning to pick up the thread)
If she ... weighs the same as a duck ... she's made of wood.
BEDEVERE
And therefore?
ALL
A witch! ... A duck! A duck! Fetch a duck.
FOURTH VILLAGER
Here is a duck, Sir Bedevere.
BEDEVERE
We shall use my largest scales.

He leads them a few yards to a very strange contraption indeed, made of
wood and rope and leather. They put the GIRL in one pan and the duck
in another. Each pan is supported by a wooden stave. BEDEVERE checks
each pan then ... ARTHUR looks on with interest.

BEDEVERE
Remove the supports.

Two PEASANTS knock them away with sledge hammers. The GIRL and the duck
swing slightly but balance perfectly.

ALL
A witch! A witch!
WITCH
It's a fair cop.

Solksjaer

Can I possibly detrail this thread any more ...to5stras post I'd just like to say.



NEI

The debate rages on, life of Brian or Holy Grail, I'm for the latter. Bold and brave sir Robin..

5starpool

Holy Grail kicks Life of Brians hole (even though that is a classic as well).

phantom_lord

wtf??? life of brain is clearly better than the holy grail.

I feel the itchy finger of a mod coming to lock this....

The Life of Brian was a funny idea and perhaps the 2nd funniest movie ever , the Holy Grail was on another level.

And any Kingniggeht worth his salt would know this.......Fetchez la vache!

phantom_lord

maybe, i can't remember it much. i on;y saw it once years ago. life of brian >>>>. the meaning of life anyway.

phantom_lord

i've been meaning to go see that 300 film, anyone see it yet? good?


haven't seen any trailers since we don't have a working tv in the apartment, just the bebo skins :rolleyes:, but i;m guessing it's the spartans blocking the pass thingy vs xerxes'(?) million men, man, doing classics was great.

do they have the sea battle at salamis at the end?
