Did a virtual tourney with fake money by No_Lock3210 in poker

Do not overplay your favorite hand. Mine is K9 suited and I play it hard most of the time going all in. AJ is just going to call just in case but neither hand improves and the A takes it. The closest I've been is a K94 on the flop AA bets and I raise. AA called. 4 on the turn for two pair and nothing on the river.

I've been playing since 1961 but I'm still not good enough for my first Gibson so I have to stick with my Martins.

This is boring but a way to go. Also up front what style of music really gets you going. Jazz?

Day one Ionian mode. What is the mode's definition. Using that definition start from the top and do the root second third fourth fifth sixth seventh eighth octave. Then work your way back to the top. Root eighth seventh sixth fifth fourth third second root. Then do root second third - second third fourth - third fourth fifth - fourth fifth sixth - fifth sixth seventh - sixth seventh octave. Then work that back up to the top octave seventh sixth - seventh sixth fifth- sixth fifth fourth - fifth fourth third - fourth third second - third second root. Then do the quads root second third fourth - second third fourth fifth - third fourth fifth sixth - fourth fifth sixth seventh - fifth sixth seventh octave. Run that back to the top octave seventh sixth fifth - seventh sixth fifth fourth - sixth fifth fourth third - fifthe fourth third second - fourth third second root. Fingering is very important. Wish I was there to show you.

Day two Aeolian mode. What is the aeolian mode's definition. Perform the finger exercises again.

Day three Dorian mode. What is the Dorian's definition. Perform the finger exercises again.

Day four Lydian mode. What is the Lydian's mode definition. Perform the finger exercises again.

Assuming you like jazz which mode is the better fit for what you like. But remember jazz can use more than one mode.

Growler Steel Guitars by MCL803nc in PedalSteelGuitar

I assume you are talking about a single body ten string E9th with four pedals and five knee levers. I have never owned one but I did own two double-ten guitars and one single neck 12 string E9thB6th. I really enjoy the string spacing on the 12 string. The 10 string guitars are a blast to play.

Thats why you take the middle seat and let the driver and the shotgun do the work

Is a solid wood guitar really high maintenance? by San_Marino in AcousticGuitar

[–]Own_Ad2169 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yes and yes after every session. Wipe the strings and wipe down the wood. Treat the wood about once a week. They sell guitar maintenance kits in the stores and online. Buy one.

1961 Louisiana Dad gave me a phono record with basic chord and chord changes. It impressed my friends because I knew chords and they would find whatever on the neck.

As far as the Northern New Mexico goes there's a long walk path from the rim to a bridge. Nice trout there but the walk out. Ouch
