21st Anniversary today…dinner out on the town tonight…therefore, I will be absent.

You guys would just beat me up anyways, just like last week.

Hopefully next week.

Have you all searched yourselves at [SharkScope?](http://www.sharkscope.com/index.html) For some reason, they have me listed as a fish. 😃

Seriously, though, I have no idea what the data mean. Av. stake $2? I don’t think so - the only thing I play at Stars these days is $1 SnG’s.

You realize that there is a direct relationship between #1 and #4? You sucked out a river flush card to get a pile of my chips, then I _failed_ to suck out my river card to give you the rest of them.

Some welcome back!

Paired, nut flush draw plus an overcard Ace? 14 outs, getting 3.5 to 1. More acceptable risk than suckout. (Not that I did the math in my head during the game.)

And, by the time I got you again, you had all your chips back! The (almost) fatal blow (left you with about 100 chips):

Tried to push me around, didn’t you? Anyway, glad you could rejoin us. Good luck in the freerolls!

Congrats to **Duke** for regaining his grim form so soon after a lengthy absence.

Three within a point of the lead? Wow!

Hard to believe I’m one of them, though.

So I’m definitely bringing my 12 gauge shotgun loaded for Duck.

Right now you would come in with a ranking of 77.8. Obviously, we need to do some Duck-plucking next week.

Is that the same tuff\_fish with a petition in California to legalize internet poker but with a whole list of restrictions like no multi-tabling and an insanely high rake and criminalization of PokerTracker (both removed, apparently from the final petition to be circulated)?
