Skip to 1m40s, see what Annette says. I'm not sure that's cool!

Poker players are dumb. Anyone with half a clue knows that it really does go on all the time but to say it is just stupid.

Same with that guy who bigged up sbrugby for all the work he did on owning isildur. We all knew that they prolly share databases and stuff but don't f*cking say it in public, it can't do any good and can only do harm.

My net sucks big time So it was real distorted for me. I gather she was saying That when she is playing at a table with friends on it they do not go after each others chips ? Was that what she said ?

Yeah that's what I thought. I agree it happens but she shouldn't talk about. Pretty pointless rule though . If I check a good hand down that is my business . Pretty hard rule to enforce UNLESS they are stupid and admit it . Hell when I am in a tourney with my wife I won't take her chips if we are only 2 in the pot.

Once I even intentionally folded my winning hand to her cause I had loads of chips and she short stacked. (probably against the rules as well) She in turn shipped next hand with them she had QQ and got called by KK Guess that what I get for giving chips away like that

The interviewer asked, "You do have your fellow teammate Sorel Mizzi, he's doing very well as well, but yesterday you were actually were seated next to each other, what happens when that happens?"

Annette Obrestad wrote:Yeah we were, and you would think that that would really suck. But at the same time, it's kinda like, this unwritten rule, we didn't talk about it, but it's like, we're not going
to play too many pots against each other because we're friends, so we don't want to
knock each other out. So we'll take it pretty easy. Like yeah, if I get aces, I'm not going
to fold you know? But still I'm going to try not to bluff him a lot. He did the same thing
to me. So it was kinda chill, it wasn't too bad.


And yeah, that's a soft play. I also agree it's impossible to enforce unless someone admits it.

:oops:

Northern, I like how you say that it's impossible to enforce unless someone stupid admits it, then immediately admit to doing it. :)

Touche But I am hiding behind internet anonymity. Nor am I a pro player in the spot light :D


TY for the dialogue. I am hating living where I do not get internet access Thankfully my cell phone works as a modem speeds suck but it works

From your name, I'm guessing you're American (at least Hillbilly seems like an American term) and up north.

Now you've got me curious. Where is such a place? Rural Montana, Idaho, North Dakota sorta thing?

Florida.(surprisingly just an hour north of Tampa) Yes it is a contradiction to my name :D But I am from Vermont recently transplanted to the south. Though I would assume every state in the U.S has plenty of areas with out internet access . It just depends on whether you live in a city or in the country . There is satellite net available here which I will probably try soon just hate locking into a contract w/o knowing if it is any good

Ah, so you're out there north of Lutz. Had a hometown friend who lived up there several years ago. I think they were up Dale Mabry then west, but not as far as you I guess.
