how to tilt a local

[tiltcity]

I was at Foxwoods a few weeks ago for FARGO (the Foxwoods annual rec.gambling outing) when I was playing a 15-30 HOE game with Michelle A. and Bob L. Many of the locals at the table were in a mood of perpetual grouchiness which is one reason I don't play a lot of live poker

*sigh* I so envy the East Coast's selection of split-pot games. Minnesota has just one occasional 6/12 Stud/8 game, and Northern California has 6/12 Omaha/8 at best. Maybe someday I'll get to play a mid-stakes OE mix.

Don't envy Atlantic City too much. The only mix games are subsets of HOSE because they aren't allowed to spread razz or triple draw or anything else. Though I suppose if you're looking for specifically split pot games, as opposed to diversity of mix games, that's a positive...

Yeah, triple draw in nor cal. That'll be the day.

Bay Area + Minnesota == Total absence of any mix games whatsoever.

Also == absence of any mid-stakes games other than Hold'em.

As a Taj regular...I can tell u that most (not all) hi low players are complete idiots.

You could just say that most poker players are idiots and you wouldn't get much disagreement.

I didn't understand half the jargon, but it was nice to see that things seem to be going well with you... Are you on the East Coast for the next few months?

Heh, now you know what it's like for me to try to read one of your physics papers!
