My theory is that peoples pay checks hit at the end of the month and they shot up their monthly gambling allowance!

Anyone else notice or am I just getting a few nice tables?

Pokerstars Ring games get juicier by the minute. I had a guy destack $70 for me holding KJo against my AA preflop at $100NL.

It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

Don't ask what I was doing with marginal cards. Villain "frenchmn" was an extreme maniac who was giving implied odds on a very wide range. To play tight was to lose value. "Ecirth" is FTR's "IOS".
