The Six Paths

Gun Humor

2008-06-20T13:13:38Z

A little gun humor for all my livejournal readers who are, like Tank Johnson, firearms enthusiasts.

Just to let you know where I stand on the AK-47 debate, it is the most successful assault rifle of all time and everyone who doesn't think so IS WRONG.

Also, Mosins are awesome and if I ever own a rifle I will own a Mosin.

GRE Practice Test

The GRE practice test has confirmed that I am in the 98th percentile for the verbal section and slightly better at math than a boiled turnip.

I hope that bodes well for a master's in social studies education!

THE SECRET IS MARK WAHLBERG IS THE LORAX

2008-06-14T04:33:18Z

I just saw The Happening and it was the worst thing I've seen in the movies since Deuces Wild and Master of Disguise, which are paradigms of awfulness.

Still, this is only the third worst movie I've ever seen at the movie theater.

1) Deuces Wild
2) Master of Disguise
3) The Happening

I'm still considering moving it up to #2.

The bad luck fairy waved her magic wand at me during my tournies today. Thems are the breaks!

In honor of this, we will revisit Mike Matusow crying after a bad beat at the WSOP. (Approximately 1:45 on video).

QUESTION FROM BigSlick006J: since you best game is seven card stud would you say that razz would be the next logical game to cash in?

ANSWER FROM Alan Boston: Razz is retarded. Stud has every poker concept there is. It is what makes it the best game. Razz is for retards and cheats.

Also: Rivers Cuomo's new moustache is awesome.

MAN VERSUS BEAR

2008-05-23T14:44:39Z

"This morning, ESPN2's "First Take" tackled one of society's age-old questions: Could one of the league's top kick returners make it from goal line to goal line if a hungry, 900-pound black bear was waiting at the 50-yard line? Apparently the show became obsessed with the topic when, for no apparent reason, major league baseball analyst Tim Kurkjian brought it up one morning in the studio.

"First Take" co-anchor Jay Crawford posed the question to Redskins return man Antwaan Randle El and noted bear expert Dr. Lynn Rogers, who was standing next to a 900-pound bruin named Ted E. Bear. Rogers explained that the bear would eventually catch and perhaps eat the glazed ham Randle El was carrying because of the animal's ability to run 30 mph. The good doctor thought Randle El might be able to juke the bear once but would never escape his stunning top-end speed. Rogers then began discussing the predatory habits of bears before Crawford steered back to firm ground.

"At some point you have to attack the bear," said Randle El, who thoroughly enjoyed the discussion. "You have to go right at him and then dodge him."

Later, Kurkjian joined the show, calling it the "worst moment of my career."

"It's impossible to say that an 800-pound bear is as nimble as a professional football player," said Kurkjian."

Someday I Can Win The World Series of Poker Razz Event?

"When Forrest and Huck Seed were sharing a history of razz with me over Ted’s girlfriend Roxanna’s kitchen table in 2006, they both used the expression “back in the day” when talking about their cash-game experiences in razz. I asked Ted whether a new razz player had a chance of succeeding at the World Series and was surprised that he said yes. “Most of the good razz players are dead."

FTOPS Razz Tournament

2008-05-16T07:27:01Z

I went out in 18th place (out of 550 or so) in the FTOPS Razz event on Full Tilt Poker, my biggest tournament cash ever.

It would've been nice if it was higher, but I'm damned happy to finish that high!

Highlights included:
- outlasting the man who wrote the razz strategy book I own.
- Hangin' my balls out there when it was the correct choice and being rewarded for it.
- Some imbecile heckling the professional player (Farzad Bonyadi)sitting at my table.

Now.... I sleep.

Great Moments in the FTOPS Razz Event

2008-05-16T02:07:10Z

These two guys were yelling at each other at my table for about 10-15 minutes, and we got to this gem:

nolimitnation1: you pitiful dog ball licker
zerocashout: you cant even make up an occupation
zerocashout: this is great
nolimitnation1: or should I say testicals
nolimitnation1: since you went to stanford
nolimitnation1: you may understand testical
zerocashout: you cant even spell testicle
zerocashout: omg
zerocashout: loooooooooooooool

To sleep, perchance to WIN - ay, there's the rub!

Lost didn't record, and some dubious ruffian knocked me out of the razz tournament ten spots before the bubble.

Later, after some horrid losing affairs in Guitar Hero III multiplayer, I logged back on to the poker server.

The clouds parted and holy, golden beams of sunlight bore down on a heads up cash table occupied by my favorite Razz poker victim!

After recovering my entry fee from the tournament plus a little extra, I will happily pass into a NyQuil induced sleep!

Best Snippet From a TwoPlusTwo Post This Year

2008-05-04T22:06:21Z

TwoPlusTwo is a poker forum, and this guy was describing an incident as his poker table.

"I glanced around the table. It was mostly familiar faces: George,
Pfizer Carl, African Dude, old guys... I didn't THINK they would
mark but who knows."

I laughed because he mentioned these people like I would know who they were.

I think "Pfizer Carl" is a really awesome and intimidating nickname.

... it's like I've been telling everyone all along. A vote for Obama is a vote for demagogy.

Ironically, the good Reverend himself has spoken the most true thing I have ever heard uttered during an election:

"If Senator Obama did not say what he said, he would never get elected," Wright said. "Politicians say what they say and do what they do based on electability, based on sound bites, based on polls." -Rev. Wright
