SDMB Poker Q2 2010 - It's like taking Tabasco from a baby

Oh, hey Dag…I noticed (after you left) that you wanted to meet up at the M Resort for drinks on Friday the 28th…I’m cool with that. I already have dinner reservations at Veloce Cibo @ 7pm, but we could meet up in the afternoon if you wish. They have the Hostile Grape, or we can hit any of the other bars there.

If you want to dine there, you can choose Terzetto’s, Marinelli’s or Veloce Cibo…all good/great, IMHO. I did mention to my wife about meeting up with you (and I assume your wife will be coming too?) for drinks, but I don’t know if the wife wants company during dinner…I will ask. You might already have plans…but I’ll find out. I think I still have your cell # from last time!

Sign up for the players club, I’ve been getting coupons and freebies (including 2 night stays) since I went the first time back in April, 2009.

There was another informative hand last night; let me see if I can remember how it went. I may not have this exactly right.

I was holding Q-K. One other player saw the flop, can’t remember who it was (fubbs?). I think the flop was 8-J-J. No action. The turn was a 9; no action. The river was a 10, which filled my straight.

So the board is 8-9-10-J-J.

Other player made a big bet; all-in, I think. I was a little worried about a full-house; it’s certainly possible with that board. But I put the other player on a Q-high straight, and figured my K-high would win. I called.

The other player showed A-J.

Slow-playing that flop isn’t a bad decision; you’re ahead of everything except pocket 8s (although 9-10 has an open-ended straight draw). The 9 on the turn sets up the chance that someone is drawing to a straight. Letting me see the river for free was a mistake. Betting big when there were four-cards to a straight on the board was a bigger one.

I’m hitting the garage sales this weekend to find the perfect lampshade to wear on my head during the game.

Uhh, dudes, click the link and do it there.

If I could figure out how to save it, I would.

it appears to save automatically.

I put my info in the spreadsheet this morning. Its not there this evening.

When I open Poker Data, I get some blanks:

12 blank blank blank blank M 44 I apologize in advance.
13 blank blank blank blank F 40 Another old timer. I never bluff, never slow play, am always the model of decorum. I frequently comment about my daughter and our damn cat.
14 blank blank blank blank M 49 FAIL
15 blank blank blank blank F 40 FAIL

I filled in the blank fields. Check again.

Who in the world can that be?

Have you calculated the standings yet? I think I may have a chance at the lead.

last i checked it was missy, if i recall correctly.

Heh, well it seems like we have an issue with the spreadsheet. Looking at the revision log, The data that is missing was deliberately deleted. I am going to lock down the spreadsheet to viewing only for anyone not approved to edit. If you want approval to edit, you need a google acct, and you need to pm the name it to me.

Sorry folks, for the inconvenience but apparently it’s necessary.

Also, I’m gonna put the End of Quarter stats on separate pages.

Still need raza’s info - anybody know it?

(I’m being a bit lazy. I could alter the spreadsheet, but it’s a bit of a pain, and I’d rather not do it twice.)

Damn. I tried to go on yesterday, and put in my info. During mid-type, the page froze and I finally had to do cntrl-alt-del to close IE. When I tried to reopen the page, I kept getting a 404 error. I assumed the page was down. I’d kind of forgotten about it until I read the new posts in this thread. I hope I’m not the ghost in the machine. I positively didn’t delete anything, but I feel terrible anyway. (It’s the same feeling I get when I see a police car and slow down, even though I wasn’t speeding–I swear it comes from being raised Catholic.) :stuck_out_tongue:

What information are you waiting for? If it’s just fields in a spreadsheet, make something up and then replace it with the real data if you ever get it.

My wife won’t be there this time. Thanks, but don’t change your dinner plans on my account. Meeting for drinks is fine.

Well, is his/her dopername raza?

BTW, I added a cool signature line - what do I have to do to make it appear?

Tight battle for first:

1 Robot Arm 70.6
2 Oslo Ostragoth 70.2
3 Red Skeezix 65.5
4 Yeticus Rex 61.3
5 Gray Ghost 61.3
6 MentalGuy 59.7
7 MissTake 59.6
8 Craneop2 55.7
9 fubbleskag 52.9
10 peekercpa 52.6
11 Dag Otto 50.3
12 Meeko 46.8

I need to do better than 12/16 if I am going to stay in the hunt.

Dag Otto and Meeko need to have a good week.

Well not folding boats pre-flop should be a nice start.

getting cards that I used to get back when we had 7 or 8 of us would be the other half.

To turn the Yogi Bera quote “Poker is 90% cards, the other half is chip management.”

Sorry…I missed this thread. What info do you need? I enjoyed what little playing I was able to do; after about the 4th hand in the restarted match, all card displays froze/went blank. When it came around to my turn, I couldn’t see my cards, and thus had to fold. Again and again. I didn’t see a menu option to refresh or reload the game, so I ended up having to quit.
