Hey JRobie... Get that education outta the way... Its more important than makin a few bones in gambling.

We never had much of a connection except for that Red Auerbach avatar. You also gave me support on my Celtic Over/Under win Total. That one was a total bust, no way they get over 36 wins.

Anyhow, hopefully youll stick around to drop a few lines. Where do you goto school?

Also, Ive been wanting to go upto Foxwoods sometime. I love playing poker. The infamous Greg Raymer got his WSOP Seat in a Foxwood Sattalite they claim.

jrobie, this is a very good decision on your part. Sounds like you have your priorities straight. Get that education and then get back to what you love

Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

Don't waste your time at Foxwoods.

Its not worth the risk when the payout isn't higher than 2-1.

Bet smaller, say $2 or $5.....and just play for fun.

Good Luck in whatever you decide.
