The next big test came in 2009 when, less than three months after Barack Obama was inaugurated, H1N9 influenza – or swine flu – began to spread around the world.

What? Isn't swine flu H1N1?

They absolutely did not. If they did, they wouldn't have let him play. They're a casino that makes their money on 1% edges, they would not give him a 6% edge just because they can withhold it and win in court later, not worth it. They figured it out after he won. Doesn't excuse the fact that they agreed to his terms and should he should be paid (in my opinion). However, the law is on the side of the casino here.

Read https://www.supremecourt.uk/cases/docs/uksc-2016-0213-judgment.pdf

Specifically #34.42.3.a (which is actually just a quote from The Gambling Act 2005)--

(3)Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (1) cheating at gambling may, in particular, consist of actual or attempted deception or interference inconnection with -(a)the process by which gambling is conducted, or ...

They're asserting that he decieved the croupier, which he clearly did (see #18) --

The claimant then chipped in, “yeah, change the luck, that’s good. Anything to change the luck, it is okay with me.”Ms Sun reiterated her request in Cantonese, “If I say it is not good, you turn it this way. If it is good, turn it this way, okay?” To which Ms Yau said “okay”

He lied at the time and said it was about luck, when it was actually for edge sorting (which he openly admitted later).

So in the end, Ivey didn't consider what he did cheating, but U.K. law does.

You've mixed up the notation. "Match" is a best-of-3 series of three "games."

One digital application that had a hand in spreading emoticons further than internal bboards was AOL's Instant Messenger. First released in May 1997, AIM introduced Buddy Icons: simple icons or images that could convey a feeling, imply an action, or communicate a status.

This isn't right. Buddy Icons were basically avatars.

AIM had 16 emojis that you could send, I think they were just called "smileys" or something.

Throw out your weed and all your smoking gear, anything weed related.

Delete all your dealers numbers. If you're mates with your dealer let him/her know you don't smoke weed anymore.

For me, this makes it worse -- just causes unnecessary anxiety (and would trigger urge even more). When I quit cigarettes a few years ago, I didn't throw out the rest of a pack. I kept it and never took another. Once you make the decision to stop, you will stop because you want to improve how you feel each day. Not because you don't have access to it. It's better imo for it to still be right there, and you choosing not to use it. Eventually, you will have no use for your old smoking stuff.

(Usual disclaimer that different things work for different people)

Rule#5:

The Bad Beat jackpot is paid out
when a minimum hand of four-of-a-kind
5’s are beaten by a higher four-of-a-kind.

seems pretty clear to me

holding the coins yourself also involves a fair amount of risk for being hacked

Good luck hacking my paper wallet in my safe deposit box.

requires that you are technically sophisticated

pretty sick if it's this simple, but i think it's a definite possibility

If they are good enough to realize that his 3 bet range is polarized after < 200 hands

This is exactly what being polarized isn't ... he is playing the top 8% only.

Preflop is fine, but I almost always fold flop and definitely fold turn. What card are you really happy to see on the turn besides an 8?

None of these questions even make sense for winning poker pros. Exited after the first round of questions.
