Let's Talk about Poker and Sex, Baby
Poker and sex are two things that most men enjoy most. I
thought it might be fun to take a look at a few terms and
concepts that can work in both and see which are they work
better in. *All-in*
This term is kinda a wash. In poker, much like sex, the size
of what youâre working with is important.

Lost in Poker Translation
After a nice run at the tables tonight, I thought I would
give you, the poker junkie nation some common poker phrases
and what they really translate to. *"I hate limit poker. I can never get people off of a hand. "
*
What that really means is:
"I hate the fact I can't scare people out by throwing all of
my chips in.

Comical Popup at Ongame
Again Iâm playing low stakes PLO at Ongame, even though
the waiting lists are missing. I run good for a couple of
hands and then I have to sit out for a little while. When I get back Iâve been removed from the table. Nothing to say about that, thatâs the way it works
everywhere.

So, I Was Wrong
"December 1st is approaching and the UIGEA enforcement will
commence. I am not even going to say it is scheduled to
commence as I fully believe that it will get there. There
will be no delays. A "Hail Mary" bill will not be signed in
time to stop the banks.

”Waiting List” Abusive Word at Ongame
*So I was grinding some low stakes PLO on one of the Ongame
skins. Since the launch of the new P5 platform there are no
waiting lists for the games. *
*âWhy is there no waiting list?â*
*âThe message contained abusive wordsâ*.
Random Rants - Isildur1, Doyle, and the UIGEA
Today, I just feel like randomly ranting and commenting on
some things. The Isildur1 Saga:
Unlike the "sparkling vampires" saga, the Isildur1 saga is
at least entertaining. The all-time record for largest pots
played online has been broken multiple times and Isildur1
has been up and down more than a hooker on Fremont Street. For now, I am just considering this a nice blip in the
online poker world.
