Quotes from the Rio

A few winners from my table last night:

50 year old man, in regards to a woman who had been at our table, "Yea she was alright, maybe a solid 7, but you know girls these days just aren't as hot as they were when i was growing up. I mean I go to high school football games now, and check out the cheerleaders, and man there's just not a looker among the bunch." End of thought. A few of us exchange awkward glances.

Same gentleman, "Chess and poker are games of memorization. I could go toe to toe with kasperov or ivey any day."

An exchange...

"Where are you from sir?"

"New Zealand."

"Where is that?"

"Near Australia."

"See I would have guessed that, except the only geography I know is from the territories in Risk. They don't have New Zealand, only West and East Australia. I could beat all of you in a Risk territory memorization challenge."


"I'll have a scotch on the rocks, oh wait...make that three, and a heineken....and a glass of water."

Drunk guy opens, gets three callers, kid on button 3bets to $100..."I won't fold until this kid gets ID'd" They check his ID, "Alright Dougie Howser, that's how it's gonna be? I fold." Kid who looks like a young doctor frink (simpsons) shows Q7o, "Oh shit, Dougie!....now let me ask you two questions...which Rocky movie is your favorite ....and have you ever made sweet love to a real woman?"

I'm so sad that I dropped 3 buyins.

thinking about...free coaching

Blog by : FishingMonk

Thinking about doing some free coaching for players struggling at 6max 10nl-50nl. see graphs below for recent 200nl results. Probably go something like 6 weeks with session sweats, reviews, freedom to discuss hands etc. Doing this purely for the pleasure of helping people out and teaching, and having never coached before I make no guarantees whatsoever. Though I assume it will be fun, a good time and a solid learning experience for those involved. pm me if you're interested, with a brief history of what you're up to (username: fishingmonk)

...jeff if this is against cr policy let me know and i'll pull it.
