Title: A glimmer of hope for The Rookie Post by: tikay on December 23, 2005, 03:34:54 PM Just had a text from that loony American, Brian "The Rookie" Wilson - you know, the shy & introvert one.
He alleges - hard to believe this - that playing on 'Stars last night, he PASSED a flush. Well, this is extraordinary, & implies all manner of things. 1) He CAN pass. He's never passed before, except when he laid down his TT at Palm Beach. 2) He was not all-in. Brian's in the brainless "close your eyes & shove 'em all-in" school, so that's progress. 3) He must have actually gone throuigh some form of thought process - another welcome improvement. Now. if we can just teach him to pass that daft 7-4 nonsense, we might yet make a player of him. Keep working at it Sonny Jim, you'll make a half-decent player yet. Title: Re: A glimmer of hope for The Rookie Post by: wsopin07 on December 23, 2005, 03:46:21 PM I still dont know if it was a good pass, the 4th heart on the river was enough to get me to lay it down, put the guy on AA or KK w/a heart on a J high board, I guess I am trying to hard, maybe the "old rookie" never makes this lay down! I held 4h 5h and it was very, very, very hard to do :blonde:
I am a bit scared, DC has told me not to get "soft" , dont lose my aggression!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO I NEED HELP?????? I HOPE IM NOT LOSING MY GAME???????????????????????????????? Title: Re: A glimmer of hope for The Rookie Post by: tikay on December 23, 2005, 03:49:25 PM You need help Brian.
DC is right, don't lose your aggression. I am sure there is a space somewhere between "aggression" & "maniac" on the Roolkie-Ometer.

Dont believe he passed, probably disconnected before he hit the raise button more like :DHe alleges - hard to believe this - that playing on 'Stars last night, he PASSED a flush.

Title: Re: A glimmer of hope for The Rookie Post by: tikay on December 23, 2005, 05:58:41 PM Of COURSE! Why didn't I think of that?
That's the answer, clearly. Own up Sonny boy. Title: Re: A glimmer of hope for The Rookie Post by: Newmanseye on December 23, 2005, 06:03:26 PM sorry you are both wrong, I do believe he passed because he was not holding the 7h 4h, He knew he was beat without it.
