Also split water cooler into B/I WC and A/E WC so that I may belong to a part of the forum. The ideas summarized in OP are good.

live low stakes is still soft but not nearly as soft as it was in the mid 2000s. there are a lot more resources available to help low stakes players and the theory and such is much more advanced than it was just a few years ago. if you can find a table of drunken idiots, obv you can make bank, but even tables with drunken idiots generally have some competent players nowadays.

i hope joe posts from lalldonn and completely mindrapes the entire internet

i lived in richardson right off of belt line near 75. yeah, the asian places are ridiculously good

I can relate. In Dallas I was a few blocks from a small Chinatown, which offered (for cash only) some great authentic Chinese, and just on the other side of that was a quintessential cheap Indian buffet. <$5 for all you could eat, high quality Indian with rice, naan, and raita. It was perfect. All the great food cultures of the world have a great soup or stew defined by flavorful broth, well cooked meats, and fresh accompaniments. It should be quick, cheap, and delicious.

my roommate is korean and has never had great korean bbq. she's jelly. her grandmother makes some elite food tho

bbf drama is the best drama

you know me too well, but i'm a little disappointed you missed my reference, though it was pretty obscure. in fact i've never ordered chicken on a burrito from chipotle.

3 beers and some hot wings or chipotle half beef half chicken with quac

because, as evidenced in OP, you frequently only learn what partner has after it's too late. its better to play defenses where you know partners suit(s) immediately, especially majors.

sorry, gwnn wrote what i wanted to say but i wanted to point out its good to bid puppet stayman with 42 majors as well as 43 and 33

Agree with both

i would call going -50 when the opponents almost certainly have +90 a winning action, but as justin said, both N and S were ridiculous.

If 2D can include 4-4, it certainly requires a better hand than what north has

I really enjoy this thread a lot, and I'm happy to see it bumped.

who cares?

Fortunately I know how to say "I'm sorry; I'm stupid" in sign language. Just like any foreign language, if you at least give it a try and show some level of competence, you get a lot of respect.

playing online is a skill just like any other. the more you practice, the better you get

i'm not necessarily convinced you need a bid to show weak with both minors immediately.

I met some deaf communications majors last night. They weren't deaf themselves; in fact they quite liked to talk to people who, like themselves, aren't deaf.

both minors. doesn't have to be weakish necessarily

Phil, of course, is right. My answer would have been 1) Simply win, or 2) Be a good salesman, or ideally 3) Both Being 2) alone is the nut low, and non-suckers will see right through it.

people still use matches?
