Rules:
-Each member of FTR can nominate one and only one post.
-Posts must be from the commune.
-Someone make a different thread if you want to converse about the nominations. Just post 'em in here and then go away.
-Seriously: fill this thread up with garbage and I will send spoonitnow to your house with no pants on.
-Winner of Post of the Year will probably not get anything.
If you haven't seen it before, there's a little white rectangular icon next to "Posted Mar 13, 5006". That's the permalink. If you feel like it, go ahead and copy/paste the text in here for quick access.

the thread starts now and continues to get noms until year's end. It's a longterm project. I might even do categories, like in the Oscars

The Hold'em Hand Histories posters will fight, then stop and ask fellows how to fight, and then try really hard to fight again and then stop and ask another etc but never really fight any good
The MTT forum posters will fight perfectly, knock a couple of opponents out but near the final one trip on a stick and fall down a cliff or something
The STT forum posters will just go in blindfolded and wave around, hoping to hit someone. They will do this very often, and if they get knocked out just send in another one
The Limit forum posers will fight very slowly, making small advances and small retreat and finally beat their opponents with a 1.03 - 1.00 ratio after 224 545 fights
The Beginner's Circle posters will fight too good opponents and get pwned, then fight the worst opponents possible (but still lose and blame it all on bad luck and OMG HIS KNUCKLES ARE RIGGED!!!111!!one!!1)

i don't know if self nominations count - I love lukies thread also, but if it's good enough for a nomination the author shouldn't have to be the one nominating it...

okay - I found 1 that I would like to nominate - I nominate it because its really rather odd - Its from BigRed and has Zero replies, but 793 views....So I'm guessing that BigRed was a outcast at that time???? this seems like an anomoly to me, and thats why i am nominating it -

that would be with the "come hand"...., I presume
you don't wanted a loaded gun....for the following reasons:
1. You can slowplay her set, and squeeze her bottom pair at the same time
2. No fear of spewing all your chips BEFORE you are "all-in"
3.If you are reverse dominated by a leather-bound agro, you can make a "crying call" on the river when your nuts get spanked.
4. If you are really lucky she'll bring a friend and you can have middle position with some multi-way action
PS. If you tend to "limp in" after a big one, then don't warm up.
Also, if you are 21 or younger don't worry - reraising should not be a problem on all streets.
PPS. If hubby comes home you have 2.5 outs (front-door ,back door and 1/2 an out for the upstairs window). If he looks at you funny, and tells you he has 1.5 outs to YOUR backdoor draw, it's time to muck -- you are drawing dead....and you are going to get the "worst of it".

We're camping and my friend and his girlfriend and I are walking down some trail. My friend has to take a shit, so being the classy guy that he is he decides to squat right in the middle of the trail and do it right there (we were pretty done at the time).
Of course a big fight with his girlfriend ensues. And one of her biggest problems was, "What if somebody thinks it's dog shit and steps in it??"
Yeah I could see that, "Hey dog shit! I'm gonna step in it... WAIT! Oh gross! I just stepped in people shit!"
