You rthink Wynona Ryder had tp die in the film or they did that cos they caught her pinching the props to sell on Ebay?

Bruce Willis is a ghost in the Sixth Sense.  Nothing major though.

Can't wait for Manny vs Mayweather.

But i won't be able to think of Manny as a serious challenger until he beats The Big Show

... Add to that the fact the guy is just walking away from you with his hands in his pockets, minding his own business, and you are an officer of the law. ...

That's not how I interpreted the image even in the video.

It takes a bit of reading between the lines, but

my impression was that the police were herding protesters, this guy was deliberately getting in their way to slow them down and block them.

EDIT: ie stop them doing their job

There's no doubt the police officer was in the wrong, but my impression was he just got impatient with this guys tactics and stepped out of line to push him 'out of the way' rather than push him over.

You can achieve a lot with selective editing - it may be that the policeman just fancied hurting someone but generally speaking most people don't 'accidentally' get caught up in a protest.


I agree with this post.



That is all.

Unedited footage:



"this guy was deliberately getting in their way to slow them down and block them"?

"stepped out of line to push him 'out of the way rather than push him over."?

Not sure that's my interpretation from the footage.



I guess my interpretation is different than yours. 

Another heated debate on the way?  I wonder if we can get the 'Thread Temporarily Removed.......' Thread removed.

can someone plz explain to me why "there will be blood" is rated 8.3 over 100k votes on IMDB? i was waiting for an ending that never arrived. An absolutely god damn awful film.

harold and kumar -- escape from guantanamo bay was really funny. Also had a story line  7.5/10 for me. well worth a watch

Smiley Harold and Kumar had a storyline?  I wonder why it was overlooked by the Oscars in favour for There will be blood.

i thought it was april fools when it was first announced.

Why now?

Maybe he knows this is the only time he'll manage in the premiership, (as no-one else will hire him), and the toon will be playing at Doncaster next season.

909  Poker Forums / The Rail / Re: A straddle question on: March 31, 2009, 02:47:18 AM
it is 16 - end of!

the precedent is set with the restraddle being allowed! if the straddle is to 4 then this doesnt enlighten us. If you are suggesting it is 12 in this example the the restraddle should be to 6?

it clearly was to 8 therefore the answer is 16!  Straddle is ALWAYS double the last bet - so it wouldnt got 12 16 20 24 - it would go 8 16 32 64



Deep pocketed Omaha cash game in Dundee.  I was involved in a hand which got upto a £64 straddle, off a £1-£1 blinds.

( ) I regreted making a £16 straddle before the end of the hand.

(X) I won a monster pot because of all the straddles. Smiley

Right ruling. But bad dealing. Dealer should muck cards before shipping the pot.

Ka ching.

Hi Jason

I understand what your saying about our raise preflop, for you it doesnt mean you have AAxx or KKxx just because your raising the pot preflop. What people are saying though is no hand is too far in front preflop in omaha so a raise that isnt a full pot raise is fine at this stage of the comp.

Ok here is the key part to what people are trying to tell you. If you believe he has hit the flop and not just making a move which with the betting is highly unlikely there are 3 senserios

1/ his hand is either K2xx or xx22 and he has you beat

2/ his hand is AKxx and he is a favourite to win the pot  56/44%  villian

3/ his hand is Kxxx and you are a 60/40 % hero

So what people are trying to tell you is that no matter what he has at best you are only a 60% fav so there is no need to commit your whole stack as there will be plently better spots at a later time.

You say you know he doesnt have K2xx or xx22 fine so that means your either a marginal fav or a marginal dog.

The fact that he hit a backdoor flush is irrelevent if he had hit a kicker would you of posted this. Also by get in it allin on the flop you have stopped yourself from being able to get away when the flush comes or out playing him and making him laydown his flush on the river


good post

and in average stars game u can't discount hands so easily.  Why wouldn't he have called with QQ22, AKJ2

Mind you, I wouldn't be holding my breath for too many exits in the first two levels of the Horse event.

would be hard to bust out that early even if you tried imo!

I no but i'm trying to be optimistic
