Thoughts on Bitcoins?

Thoughts on the Rehtaeh Parons/Audrie Pott?

Why do you think the media in America reported the Steubenville case how it did? CNN in particular

"Incredibly difficult, even for an outsider like me, to watch what happened as these two young men that had such promising futures, star football players, very good students, literally watched as they believed their lives fell apart...when that sentence came down, [Ma'lik] collapsed in the arms of his attorney...He said to him, 'My life is over. No one is going to want me now.' Very serious crime here, both found guilty of raping the sixteen-year-old girl at a series of parties back in August."

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/20/poppy-harlow-cnn-steubenville-rape-coverage-criticism_n_2914853.html

Aware the well was "closed" but my previous questions had a poker slant and this is much more interesting.

Ah man, one more question? Tongue

I remember when u finalled the full tilt ftops I think it was when gutty was still open, they had u on the big screen there railing u. How do u keep yourself grounded & in control now u r playing for bigger stakes and have won more money over the years?

Also what advice would you give to people who have gone broke and trying to get back in the game?, I.e do u think its possible or has there time passed?

You are a top guy, so down to earth and always happy to talk about hands with others and give advice which I really admire.

Gl for the rest of the year Sammy x

^^^ So when did the gutty close then? (I should've asked Sam a timeline of his career. Am personally trying to make some plans for me in this game and it's taking a lot longer than I had hoped. If Sam has been playing for years, it makes me feel a bit better as to why I can't make a quick buck out of this game. And not return her phone calls Wink )

Don't quite understand who this post is aimed at & what's your point?

I'm asking a q.

When did the gutshot club close?

And the related q: When did Sam final table the FTOPS?

And I suppose after re-reading dreenie's original comment. This q is either aimed at dreenie or somebody slightly more intelligent (as dreenie claims that Sam was on the big screen at the gutty when it was still open. He can't remember whether it was before or after the club had closed Wink Well, if it was after, then it was somewhere else wasnt it? Yet this was only ~6 years ago.  If you can't remember the incident from that shorter time period AND you're a winning poker player, there's hope for all of us)

I meant 'The International', I used to call it the gutshot as it was same club just down the road & different name?!

Poker players- so predantic !

He finalled FTOPS when the international was open, they had him up on the big screen railing him OK.

Thank you, thats what I was asking for.

I wanted to try to work out how long Sam had been playing for. If he had played at the gutshot (>6 years ago), then it'd would've been a long time.

I know, it would've been easier to ask him in the well. But i forgot.

"Quick Bucls" are much easier to make when your sole intention isn't just to make them.
