yeah used to play at PokerStars but so many people in those tourns make it crappy. Used to play at sportsbook.com for poker but constantly got sucked out on the river there. Ever play at WSEX too? I saw they have poker curious how it is.

Take the 15k bet it all on one game, and just tell the guy you lost the tourney if you lose the game. . .

Bet it all on Kentucky ML tonight + 400 and turn it into 75k

This is a scum guys. Why would someone with a hair salon back up someone with no hair at a poker tournament. For the hair salon publicity?

I dont care how you play, I know people that have won $10 rebuy madness on pokerstars a few times, which usually is $13,000 or so, and they still couldnt get bought into a $15,000 tournament

First of all, why does someone in the hair salon industry associate with a bald man? Has to be bad for business.

I'd be interested however, im not sure ,but i think you meant a 15k tourney in feb? or was it a cash game?, which of these are you known in your community as being a specialist in?

Either way tourney or cash game,what are the chances of a out of towner walking into a local social club in Newark N.J and winning the tourney or blasting the cash game, with players of your calibre,.........hmm let me think.....i really like you on here JJ and no doubt you know the game and are probably a very good player ,but id take my shot in the game.

However making a big score in a 15k tourney in Newark in a local social club and actually being able to leave the game with money in pocket and get into my car and get on the highway i see as perhaps being a big problem?

JJ.... perhaps a vid in refrence to this upcoming poker event?

sell excessive percentages of yourself to everyone you know and pocket the extra money... as long as you don't cash you are good to go....
