Rage Against The Machine Xmas No1

Amazing scenes with Rage Against The Machine getting to number 1 in the pop charts. If the good people of the UK had followed The Magical Tipster not only did they do some good for society they would have also made some handsome profits which they will no doubt make a contribution to the charity Shelter.

It’s great when you earn money, do good for society and stick it to the ‘man’ . Maybe this should be a regular occurrence when betting on Specials Market, buy the record/make phone call etc on a complete outsider but then place half the amount onto the outsider and make a killing…

The good for society it would kill the reality tv concept stone dead, you would make a shed load of money because the price fluctuations would be enough for punters to jump on board especially the insiders who usually make a killing on these markets and it would really upset the producers of these programs as they would see that the ‘great unwashed’ are gerrymandering their trashy programs. Something of a plan methinks.

The other thing to do when bored with poker is to watch our great leaders getting the script wrong and we start with the ‘Benny Hill’ of politics Mr Silvio Berlusconi. Now Silvio is a bit of a playboy/megalomaniac/hard man of Italian politics who portrays himself as a testosterone fueled demigod  who is above the law and is some sort of superman. However when a mental patient smacked him in the mouth with a statue he stayed in hospital for 4 days with a fractured nose and cracked teeth – so much for the warrior prince!

The first video features one John H. Ford, 35, of Cleveland, US, being searched after a robbery at the First Merit bank in Ohio. Mr Ford eats a paper which the police believe was the note which demanded the money from the bank.

The second video features the biggest online pot ever and it was between Isildur1and Patrik Antonius who were playing online Omaha. The total pot was $1.35 million dollars and was played on November 21, 200.

The one thing I will say is that isildur1 played extremely badly in this hand and I cannot understand how he put over $600,000 into the pot?

The Million Dollar Poker Pot

This is a real humdinger and will enthrall you and keep you watching forever. A group of diners tuck into a fish that has been fried but is still alive. If you feel a bit queasy about these things do not watch. Personally I found it fascinating, if a little disturbing, and, kept me of the poker tables for ages.

bored

Have you noticed that playing poker when bored gets you into trouble. So I have decided to change my ways and will only play poker when:

1. I am in the mood.

2. There is no bad vibes from other people.

3. I haven’t had too much to drink.

4. I am not more interested with TV, music or anything else.

These seem like sensible rules and not too difficult to follow.

Do you sometimes get bored with poker? Well, I am! Maybe it’s the constant sucking out to really bad players and bad play that is doing it but it is really driving me insane. Or it could be that I need a new stimulus like Omaha or even draw poker instead of the now standard Texas Hold Em.

I used to get a thrill out of live play but even that is beginning to wind me up a little and the endless chat of tactics, strategy and maths which can get a bit anoraky and geeky. And. please do not get me started on online poker and the ‘banter’ which is usually nothing more than  abuse and childish threats of violence via the internet as if the perpetrators can really do anything about it.

I have never really heard a discussion on the merit of taking time out but I do feel the need to do this as it may refresh my enthusiasm for poker and energise my tactics. OK, maybe I just need a good win LOL.
