id prefer to use this forum to flame assclowns like yourself.
i saw him at the riverbank. he was breaking bread and giving thanks. with crosses made of pipes and planks. leaned up against the nitrous tanks.
he said take a hit. hold your breath and i'll dunk your head. then when you wake up, you'll be high as hell and born again.

Why the hostility? Is this not an appropriate question or is this the wrong forum to write it in? No offense meant.

It seems "forum veterans" are too busy stroking themselves, bathing in the glow of their own genius, to respond to a serious question. Albeit one with caps lock used. For all the $.01/$.02 limit poker they play in their mom's basement, you'd think they'd have enough money to buy a clue.The people who decry flame wars are the same one's who start them in this forum. Seriously, this dude wants to talk a little poker, and you tell him to go back in his mother's womb and for her to have an abortion?You guys are really cool. Cool enough have no lives to speak of outside a poker forum. Cut the guy some slack.i don't know of any pro tells, by the way. Moneymaker looks right at you when he is bluffing.

Thanks for the information and defense. I just won a seat at the WSOP in Vegas and I am going to New Orleans for some tournament play there. Again, maybe wrong forum, but I think an interesting topic. So again, if someone can direct me elsewhere, please do. If not, why not start one.

You might get more feedback in the General forum.I wouldn't waste much time on this though. The pros watch themselves more than you ever will. What was a tell today probably won't be a tell by July, and the odds of you actually sitting at a table with a pro whose tell you've found is still good are astronomical.Work on your own game, and thanks for finding that caps lock key.

3 things:1. All caps is bad2. wrong forum3. your poll has nothing to do with your topic.Also, it's the WSOP circuit event in New Orleans that you're playing in, not that it matters bc you'll probably lose.
The path
of the righteous man is beset on
all sides by the inequities of the
selfish and the tyranny of evil
men. Blessed is he who, in the
name of charity and good will,
shepherds the weak through the
valley of darkness, for he is truly
his brother's keeper and the finder
of lost children.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those
who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.
And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

I've seen a certain player pick his nose when playing. When he's bluffing, it's usually a two-knuckle dive. A single knuckle probe usually means he's got a piece of the flop. Rimming the inside of the nostril indicates the stone cold nuts. I can't remember his name, though. Sorry.

ahhhh, what do assumptions do. oh yeah they make an ass out of you and me, but in your case they just make an ass out of you. Dude shut up. It was a stupid question that really has no value to this forum. If you want to try to rag on me for my ost count, I post here in between hands when Im playing online, or when I've just woke up, like now. Those of us who actually post in this forum take it seriously and don't like it when stupid shit that can be posted in gen pop. Look OP if you want to get tewlls on pros, do it yourself. Watch past WPT episodes and carefulyy watch them when they play. If you have a real question, then ask it, if you want to run another stupid poll, do it in gen pop

1. holding down caps means your shouting smart guy3. Raymer wasn't an "everyday name" onluy MM and Varkonyi would be considered that. If you have read many of the things on Raymer then you'd know that he is a winning high stakes player, and is a north east semi pro

Flame me with your 400oth post, please. You tell another human being his mom should have had an abortion, but I'm the a-hole- and so is he- for soiling his precious forum. look buster, I take poker seriously too. My 15 or so posts have been on the topic of poker, poker personalities, and the like. but I'm not on some holier-than-thou mission to own a poker forum, which is what you (due to some inferiority complex(es) I don't know about) are. You act like this is your town, your gang. "Don't come around here." When really you're masked by the vail of the semi-anonymous internet, and feeling tough by cutting others down to size really gets you going. (Figuratively, at least... I can't imagaine anything getting you literally going... in order to post 4000 times you must be pretty sedentary, and, hence, obese).I can flame too, cowgirl, but I go after the bounty hunters, not the innocent trying to talk poker.As far as this board going to crap; "You do it to yourself."Radiohead

ahhh, basing this off of two posts, jumping the gun aren't we "mr. content". Since you also like to read so much then you would've noticed as to why I post here so much, but since you don't feel like reading then maybe you should read my post again tuff guy. Yet again an assumption that you try to make is my weight. Well guesswhat, I used to be a wrestler and now do jiujitsu, so I guess your analysis of me is wrong.
