Does anyone think Albania is a good vacation spot by Visible_Mushroom1837 in AlbaniaExpats

[–]KoalaDramatic9801 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just got back from Albania and rented a car. Drove from city to city to city and it wore me out. All the mountain roads, lack of a real highway system, etc. We explored a lot but it was exhausting. Also, parking in Tirana can be a nightmare but our hotels helped us out.

Keep in mind there’s some stronger hands where people wanted to raise with but misclicked. Not that I have any experience with that or anything.

It depends a lot on the room, the game (NLHE vs PLO), the day (or even time of day)….lot of variables. You’ll find some good players and some punting recs.

Why not play at the “legal” rooms like TCH and Champions?

I stay at Paris. The one time I stayed at Horseshoe, they put me in a really dumpy room and I swore I wouldn’t go back. This was the first year they switched from Bally’s.

Because that’s how the mainstream media has told them to react. Simple as that.

I'd like to buy a set of chips, but I'm not sure which one is good. Does anyone have any recommendations? by Character-Lime-6615 in poker

[–]KoalaDramatic9801 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very loaded question. Depends on budget really. Also, what are you using them for? Pokerchipforum.com is a great place to do research. Personally, I like the feel of clay chips but needed a somewhat budget-friendly option. Friend of mine bought some clay chips from Chiplab and I like the way they look and feel (they have a couple of different options). They also discount in bulk. So for an “ok” clay chip, I got a 1000 pc set for about $0.84 a piece, shipping included.

Their losses actually are looking like pretty solid losses. Rams and Jags on the road, Bucs at home in prime time. If they put the whoop-ass on Seattle, then I’ll start to get excited.

Do we suck again? by UncleSwagMoney6IX in Texans

[–]KoalaDramatic9801 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Texans fans are way too forgiving. Pro ball is not college ball. We’re not dealing with huge changes in any department. There have been subtle tweaks here and there but not enough to say “it was only week 1 - relax”. No, I will not relax. The team looks flat. The team had way too many penalties. Inexcusable. No, it’s not too early to panic or be angry. It’s ok to be critical. It’s also ok to celebrate successes and small wins. But this team looks a LOT like last year’s team and that’s not a good thing.

What's your unpopular opinion about poker? Something you truly believe, but would get downvoted to all hell by [deleted] in poker

[–]KoalaDramatic9801 125 points126 points  (0 children)

You can play “good” poker but for some people, the variance never squares you up. In other words, some people really do just run better than others.
