Challenge of the Poker Forums !

[PShabi]

Thank you.

People are begging for fucking 70 cents in the backer forum. That's more than pathetic. How ashamed would my parents be to know I was begging on the internet for less than a dollar?

[BrianSwa]

my 7 year old has more then that in his piggy bank, hell my 7 year old just took $60 to best buy maybe I should ask him if that guy can borrow .71.






pauses while brian asks 7 year old.







he says that if you go to mcdonalds for him and get him a happy meal he will give you a .71 tip.

[rookette22]

Laugh it up...keep going. Wonder, how much you'll like it if one day you find yourself alone and in a hole, not being able to pay your bills or can't afford certain things.

When you have a minute download this song and listen to it... I mean really listen to it; "GOD BLESS THE CHILD ...that’s got his own"

[ChipFish]

So it's settled then?

$100+9 ?

Sounds good

[PShabi]

I don't have that much $$$$!!!!

If I kill a homeless person, a worthless one of couse, do you think I could sell him/her as firewood?

[ChipFish]

Seriously though....
How about we pass on the old "Drive up the membership" speel for a bit here.

$10 is a couple of starbucks coffees...
If someone can't get $10 online, well... perhaps online poker is not the proper hobby for them.


You want the solution to avoid crashers?

#1 Set the tourney up as a private $10+1 tourney on Stars....
#2 Agree on a time to hold said tourney....
#3 Set up Tourney 1 HOUR before it starts...
#4 Name the tourney "Rookette's Super Awesome Faburiffic Poker Tourney" or something like that... (See no reference to Forum = No crashers)
#5 Post password 10-15 minutes before tourney starts.
#6 Have a fun time with people we "know"

[BlibbityBlabbity]

#7 Don't give ChipFish the password....

[ChipFish]

Good point.

[Talking Poker]

haaaaaaaaahahahaha....

Best post of 2006! So far, anyway.

[BrianSwa]

ok rook im done with you, you are getting way too personal and obviously dont have a clue what you are talking about. Pay my bills why because I'am able to actully deposit once and awhile? I have a good job and if that means im allowed to spend a certain amount of money on entertainment then im happy. Not gonna go into my personal finances because honestly its none of your damn buisness but I make more then enough to spend a couple hundred on poker If I wish.

I dont because id rather spend money on taking my kids to disney or taking my wife out to dinner like Iam tonight but again thats really not your concern. You have a problem rook you blow things way out of porportion, you ask for advice then if everyone dosent agree with you then you either blow up at them or you say your leaving the forum. You sound like me when I was in mass depression and my son was in bad shape, thats my excuse though whats yours?

you are the worst person to critisize because you dont take it for what its worth you just think its a personal attack on you. Im seriously done with all your posts, I wont reply to them ever again its pointless in my opinion to. I would block you but because you post like 500 posts a month it would cause too many holes for me.


good luck rook.

[ChipFish]

You lie!

[BrianSwa]

its gonna be hard seeing as the stuff she writes almost begs me to reply. Its just really painful replying to it sometimes because I know no matter what I say unless its exactly what rook wants to hear im gonna get flamed for it. Well im off to dinner guys ill be back in morning to do next round of fantasy matchups. Might check in later tonight to see how else rook can disagree with reason.

[ChipFish]

Technically I believe this would constitute a reply to Rooks posts....
Lou, Can I get a ruling?

[PShabi]

Dude, it's freaking 3:00 in the afternoon. Dinner? Are you freaking 70?

[rookette22]

That's just it! I asked for advice on the tourney details. Your dissing the "poor ppl" wasn't called for. That's where this took a slight detour.

This isn't about being rich or poor, this is about making it fun and exciting and making the buyin enough for lots of different ppl to enjoy.

Maybe that guy asking for .71c will get lucky between now and the tourney time. I know I turned $11 into $39 in a couple of hours. Anything could happen and for you to disrespect us like that, sorry but uncalled for.

And yeah, you're damn right...it hits home; and it's personal for me.

And like the wise Pshabi once said to me,(don't rem the exact words but it goes something like this...) Chill out! Leave here, go outside...stick your head in the snow and then come back

P.S. I added stick my head in the snow btw....

[Robbie Robb]

I know it's a pain since most of play primarily (it seems) on Stars, but Blib may be onto something when he suggested making it at a different site. I just check Full Contact Poker (pokerroom skin) and I have the ability to create private tourneys with a $5+0.50 buyin.

Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be anyway (that I've seen) to transfer money to another player @ FCP so it's not like I (or anyone else) can trade Stars money for FCP money.

Man...this would all be soooo simple if Stars' minimum was $5.

[rookette22]

Guess you didn't get what I meant by that remark. It means put yourself in someone else's shoes (maybe my shoes) see what it's like, don't think you'd be making the rude comments you made just now.

Hmm I heard about you being, " the boy who cried wolf ". But hey did I ever once in this thread say I was leaving? Nope. Wonder where you got that from ..hmmm?

As for my excuse, well not hard to guess, that I'm not all that rich and when a person laughs at another for being poor, yeah it pisses me right off.

Hey I'm still here aren't I? And when I see you or anyone else making bad comments about someone in here or in general, and if I feel as if it's personal to me, then yeah, it's a personal attack and I'm gonna fight for them as well as myself; so live with it.

Do whatever you like. YOu wanna block me...go right ahead. Don't make excuses for yourself dude...just do it!

[ChipFish]

You should really pick on someone else...
The Swa has been done before...
I've got dibs on Penguin...
I believe EVERYONE has had a go at Lou....

Looks to me like Pshab is itching to get involved here... Why ignore his jabs about people not being able to afford $10? Sounds to me like your a bully.

*Stirring the pot ---- Stirring the pot----*

[rookette22]

I'm out for the night...so hopefully you (Brian) won't think I parted this forum. Not leaving just yet.

I'm gonna think over what you all had to say. And I'll talk to the other forum admin aswell.

Will get back to you all, sometime tomorrow.

As for TP...hmm hopefully you'll be drunk when reading this whole thread.

Wonder if there's any way of hiding this thread from TP?

Cheers! Wouldn't wanna be here when TP gets back.

[ChipFish]

So $10 then?

[Talking Poker]

Sadly, no.... I'm stone sober and I haven't been keeping track, but I'll guess I've wasted 30+ minutes of my life on this thread now.

And I already know EXACTLY which one of my posts you are going to focus on when you get back, completely ignoring all the valid points I made and concerns I voiced. Hopefully I'm wrong.

MY only regret is that I thought it would be a good idea to reply to this thread as I was going through it, instead of waiting until the end like I would normally do. There was just SO MUCH to reply to though!

Stupid TP.

[Talking Poker]

Wow. When it comes to BRIAN making a post like this..... wow. That's really saying something.

Did I mention Wow?

[rookette22]

Nice to know you grew up with a silver spoon in your mouth. Most of us didn't. And for you or anyone to put us down cus we don't have or make the same money you do is uncalled for.

Like I've said many times before, I never put any pocket money in PS for the sole purpose that I don't have any, not to waste on poker that's for sure. But I won some chips and sold them and made some money to play in here, that way. But some of you namely you and Brian, are turning it into a disgraceful act. Not everyone is loaded as you all seem to be.

[BrianSwa]

again you blow things way out of porpotion.....once again! Neither of us are rich, but we both are long time users of this forum and like it alot. We both have been here in the growing stages of this forum, and neither of us want to see it go to hell. I think $10 is very very reasonable. If you dont want to deposit then thats your choice, if you want to try to run it for $5 then by all means be my guest but I know I wont be there. I trust TP but I wouldnt expect the other forum members to so I doubt there gonna send $5 to him without knowing him.

I wouldnt want to play anywere but stars because thats where all my money is and not moving it just for a torney. There is no way id do a freeroll NO WAY. So whatever you do rook good luck but do us a favor and chill out a little and take advice and opinions for what it is ADVICE AND OPINIONS.

[PShabi]

I'm going to laugh this one off. You're getting personal and you don't know shit about me. I'm going to let you slide on this one, but in the future it would not be wise to try and make personal attacks against me. It's a lose-lose situation.

I didn't put anyone down, unless you are a CHEAPO MORON. If you are, then yes, I was talking to you.

You ask for opionions and then blow up and take it personally when people don't see eye to eye with you.

Again, if 70 cents, or 5 bucks, or even 10 bucks was a lot of money to me, I wouldn't be playing poker with it. I'd put it in a savings account.
