3 things you should never talk about in a pub should hold true on blonde as they cause the most trouble.

politics,football,religion

Alcoholism perhaps number 4

What about Fight Club?

Some years ago I read a piece on, I think, poker.rec or a similar forerunner to the likes of Blonde and 2+2 which gave what appeared to be a rational maths-based explanation of the 'cash out curse'.
In essence, as I recall it, building your balance occurs on an upswing, cashing out means that you can't handle the concomitant downswings and thus go bust rather than just suffer a reduced balance.

I believe that I cause the arrival of an adverse river card for me when I name the card or variety of card I want to avoid.

Sounds a bit like regression to the mean.  Would make sense if they withdraw after a good run or a bink, and then their remaining bankroll is too small to absorb any downswing.

It's funny how the human mind seeks out patterns and causality when there isn't any.

God.

Only a matter of time before people start preaching about whether they do or dont believe in religion.

It's fucking boring and I wish people would keep it to themselves.

Irony ITT

I haven't stated whether I do or don't. I just wish people wouldn't mention religion so often. It's annoying. Adults can make their own choices.

You're also the most boorish poster when it comes to religion on this forum which is unusual for such a nice happy go lucky guy.

If people stop ramming it down my throat, and having it interfere with my life, I'll stop talking about it.

people do that on this forum? by all means ram it down the throat of those who ram it down yours but I don't see any religious preaching going on here.

don't know whats got your back up, but the godites almost always start these arguments cos they think it will get them into heaven.



pretty sure I reacted ott, but I just someone always has to mention religion/god etc and I'd have thought for the forum it's better it wasn't brought up at all. It's lose lose for the forum

Won't be posting that again! Apologies for clearly offending some! Wow
