Keep UK pls

[gamerman01]

Then you get a scorching make up roll.
I have to decide whether to continue with 3 against 5.  Too dramatic.

[Me1945]

@Gamerman01:

Too dramatic.

That is another reason I like this game.

[gamerman01]

This is one of the parts I don’t like.  I’m not a big time poker player.  I’m more of a chess player.

[gamerman01]

Italian failure looming large.
Nice 3%er in NTE when you needed it, btw  :cry:

[gamerman01]

You have 80% to wipe me in 1 round……  :-P Man, it was looking so good I was already feeling guilty

[gamerman01]

Right call?  Who knows.  Probably won’t matter.

[gamerman01]

You have 2 UK left to tell the tale.

This is one of the parts I don’t like.  I’m not a big time poker player.  I’m more of a chess player.

I always assumed you would be into poker.

Haymakers being thrown left and right!  This is the best game of the year!

You’re actually right, Me.  I just meant not a big time poker player like I wouldn’t put a lot of real money on it, and I abhor Texas Hold 'em except for playing for fun on the internet like I used to (with no real money), because I hate sharing 5 cards with everyone else.  I’m a 7 card stud guy, thanks to SNES Vegas Stakes title  :lol:

And the Olgy thing was dramatic

I also didn’t notice it was soul who made that comment… thought it was Me as well.  Funny.

[gamerman01]

Heh, it’s even a totally different picture.  But no one else has popped in for a long time, so was expecting Me, and it was written exactly in Me’s style and sounded like something he would say.  :-D  :oops:

You guys are absolutely welcome to comment, as far as I’m concerned.  I’m not sure how Me1945 feels about that, though.

[Me1945]

It’s Me. No problem with guys and comments.
