I will challenge you heads up... be ready to be beat by a girl. :D

Do you play online?

This really is a great site.

That is how my partner got me, he made me a poker player. :D

I do play online. But mostly live games I live outside buffalo ny. Niagara falls has 3 casinos 10 minutes from my house. But I do play on poker stars.

Justwantfair · May 5, 2009, 11:33 AM

I play on Poker Stars, we have a local poker charitable that runs poker tournaments, cash and sit n go's. The casinos in our area offer some limited high stakes tables, but otherwise it is just table games like Three Card and Let it Ride.

I love to play, it's a great release and I think it's a great thing for single women because there are so many single men playing ;). Not the greatest pick up place for single men since there aren't nearly enough poker females, at least around here there aren't.

I love Poker! Once a month my friend has a card game and I only play poker or spades. Once in a while I play Remy.

Yeah this area has many choices on where to play. I prefer the casino it has a sperate room. It's some of the best players in the world. Tho I did just win a charitable poker tournament for roswell cancer institute. You had to be sponserd to be in the tourny an that was 5000 dollars. Butva couple doctors did it for me an I gave half of my winnings back. The total amount I donated was 7500 dollars. Ur right there are way to many woman that do play because of drunk men. I gave up drinking 4 months ago an feel so much better for doing it. Yet I do need to quit smoking cigs. Ughh so tuff

Congrats on your win. The closest we have is Heartland that was here a two - three weekends ago.

We have been down to play in a 2008 WSOP Event. No actual celebrity poker players around here, but we have some great poker players in the area. We have some underground games, but literally you can play all week, everyday. I like it better than the casino rooms.

We go about twice a year and stay at the Venetian and play over at TI, I like their poker room and the Venetian's best. I don't play for drunk men, but I know that around here there are only about 5-6 quality female players. Not many can hang with the boys, with the exception of pure luck.

Did you see the new Wolverine? Negreanu makes a cameo, as nothing other than a poker player in it. We thought that was cute... he is one of my favorite, along with Ivey.

I've played against daniel many, many times, he's from toronto ca, an that's 45 mis from any of the places I play at.. by the way thank you for the congrats.. I tried to give it all to them but the institute wouldn't let me.. roswell is the leading cancer research center in the world.. I would do anything for that place.. they saved my dad once, (from prostate cancer) now there going to do it again, he has lyphoma, an the cancer is in his bones, an left shoulder.. that's what made my break up a little tougher to deal with..

Ahh the drunks, love to play against them, as I call them is dead money.. I just sit an wait for them to play so bad that I end up with there money.. example today, I walked out up 350 dollars because the 3 drunk guys just kept playing dumber and dumber every hand.. your right the only time I lost a hand to the was pure luck.. the guy needed runner runner against my set to take down the pot, that's OK only cost me 125, that's when I left.. heartland poker, ill watch that every once an awhile on TV.. next week I am playing in turning stone wpt event, not sure if it's a televised event.. but if it is I will def let everybody know :)

That is wonderful about Roswell, sounds like a quality charity. Although I am surprised they can limit your donation.

We play and profit often, but not nearly enough to stop working and just play. I deal out here once in awhile also. I love to play, the game is always a challenge and every changing.

Poker is pretty serious around here, there is rarely enough drunk men at the table to take advantage of, although you can still love dumb luck.

We have a yearly poker league that we play in also. That is where the drunk players are, group of 16 and my partner and I are the only non-drinkers really in the league.

colonel7 · May 5, 2009, 06:33 PM

Yeah I'm in a 350 player league. It cost 200 to buy in then every week you play an cost $25 a week. Then at the end of every weekly tourny the winner of that week gets 1500 plus a points rating. An at the end of the year there's a final. An you get chips based on your ranking. Right now I'm ranked 2nd. An our end of the year tourny starts tomorrow night. I will start will 120,000 an the lowest will start with 1500. So it pays to be ranked high.
Roswell told me that I was to generous an said to keep the money.

colonel7 · May 6, 2009, 05:30 AM

Threads merged and edited.

Yesterday I receieved a text from my ex saying " listen. I said leave me alone, leave my friends alone, if to don't , I will get a restraining order against you, or an order of protection." umm I haven't talked to her since last week Thursday when she said don't contact me anymore. An I Haven't. She also went on my Facebook an deleted some pictures. She also deleted my Facebook account but the reinstated it. I'm tryn not to think of her an I'm doing good. I'm happy I'm not with her anymore. But why is she doing what she's doing?

mudweiser · May 6, 2009, 10:41 AM

She sounds pyscho.

1-Change all your passwords and secret questions/answers

2- Keep not talking to her

3- If your not doing anything wrong then this is just crazy talk.. don't even respond to it.

Eck- be happy your out of that mess. She sounds cooky.

Sarah

liz28 · May 6, 2009, 10:46 AM

Well leave her alone and don't contact her or her friends. She might have saw you drive past her house a few nights ago.

Move on and change your number.

HistorianChick · May 6, 2009, 10:48 AM

Yup. Change your passwords and number.

You haven't contacted her, don't contact her. She sounds nuts.

First thing is to change passwords - every account, email, Facebook, myspace, etc.

This stinks. Sorry man.

mudweiser · May 6, 2009, 10:48 AM

Yep. I agree with you Liz.

Change your number!

Sarah

I wish · May 6, 2009, 11:10 AM

Sorry to hear about this. But it's time for you to block her out of your life. Block her on Facebook, IM, change phone number.

Sounds like she's baiting you. Don't contact her back.

liz28 · May 6, 2009, 11:24 AM

If anyone should be calling the cops is you because she invading your privacy by going into your Facebook account.

Stay away because she is bitter now and bitter people tend to act very childish.

I missed that part Colonel regarding what she did to your Facebook account. And you can contact Facebook adminstrators to make them aware of your privacy being invaded to. But change everything now.

nikosmom · May 6, 2009, 11:35 AM

So where does the part about "she yelled and threatened to call the cops" come in?
