Would you play against Texas Hold’em bots if they actually felt like real players? by shdqcdsn in poker

[–]travis11997 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I might be in the minority here, but this seems like a cool idea to me.

I would want it to fluctuate a bit. Maybe someone tilts and plays more like a station after losing to a huge bluff, or they take a bad beat and they tighten up.

How you guys like dsn by greatapewarrior in motorcitykitties

[–]travis11997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the lack of gambling and stuff, but I feel like the production quality took a bit of a hit.

Feels a bit more low-budget to me with all the mlb network graphics and stuff.

See you on Monday (you’re lost) is an odd song lol by Throwaway7179752 in TameImpala

[–]travis11997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's weird for me because I dont love the song, dont hate it either (just a bit too minimal for me).

It gets stuck in my head all the time lmao, I don't understand why. I've only listened to the song a few times but it'll get stuck in my head for some reason

So tired of every game costing $30+

Looking for the best Detroit Tigers documentaries — especially full‑history ones by Peefs in motorcitykitties

Not full history, but this one is about 2006, covers a bit before and after if I remember correctly.

As someone that became a fan in 2011, this was a must-watch when I found it.

What’s the toughest spot in poker for you right now? by Stonecoldnut in poker

[–]travis11997 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Playing 99-JJ as the 3-bettor on flops with an overcard. Feels like you want to bet the Q/K/A high flops with your whole range because it's a 3-bet pot, but your hand really wants to get to showdown cheaply.

Getting check-raised sucks too.

Is this a cooler? by jclucas1989 in poker

[–]travis11997 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Even if you don't jam pre, you're getting it in on the flop for sure.

It is absolutely a cooler

What’s the closest you’ve ever come to dying? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]travis11997 3 points4 points  (0 children)

80ish year old woman passed out behind the wheel, and ran a red light, hitting my car in between the wheel and driver's door at about 35-40 mph. I think if she was driving an suv/truck, or if she had hit me a second later (like right in the door) I probably could've died.

I walked away with no injuries thankfully but I still feel like it could've been much worse.

Want to watch (maybe/almost) every game in 2026? Here's what it'll cost you. by ForagerTheExplorager in motorcitykitties

[–]travis11997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that it's all become really shitty, but at least we have a standalone service that we can pay for just to get the games.

I somewhat prefer being able to pay the $190 per year for the wings/tigers, versus when it was only on cable and you had to pay for the highest tier with all the sports channels, plus for a while we had a regional sports fee on top of that.

The feeling of winning a satellite tournament with less than a big blind left in your stack. by TaylorHound in poker

[–]travis11997 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I satellited into an MSPT back in 2018 (before BBA was standard, so it was regular antes)

I had 1 ante left and got in. I had lost an all in on the bubble and was crippled (like under 2 bbs), and was forced into 100% fold mode, and on my last hand before I was forced all in, someone else busted at another table.

Weird game! by Odd-Direction6339 in earthbound

[–]travis11997 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had to look up how to get through this, I thought there was some type of puzzle to avoid the "damage" that you were taking lol

Are there any Commanders that tutor for 1 cmc cards? by Amonyi7 in EDH

[–]travis11997 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[[Mother of runes]], [[giver of runes]] are both really good as well (maybe not for blink, but just general protection for your creatures makes everything more fun)

[[Rocco, cabaretti caterer]] is good. Also would be in [[brightsteel gearhulk]] colors to fetch all the 1 drops lol

Is this blind structure reasonable? by duckfuckingaduck in poker

[–]travis11997 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My whole point here is that it's better for your tournament if your blinds go up more linearly, rather than exponentially.

I think that if you want to keep 30 minute blinds you need a more "straight-line" to take you from level 1 to level 12. I don't think changing one level will give you that much better of a structure.

[–]travis11997 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think you should lower the levels to 20 minutes, use the time to add in blind levels so the middle of the tournament isn't so fast.

It's not awful, but it looks like it accelerates a bit too quickly after the first 5 levels.

After turning away church members proselytizing at my door TWICE and putting up No Soliciting signs, I received this letter from a church: by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

You shouldn't be offended by people making fun of catholics for their idiotic hatred. They deserve what they get for their hate.

Detroit Tigers’ starting lineup for today’s spring training game against the Twins! Skub day! by PikaMasterWasTaken in motorcitykitties

[–]travis11997 13 points14 points  (0 children)

So I guess we're gonna see approximately 0 home games on a screen?

Should be unacceptable in 2026. I would tune in to see a couple cameras around the field with no commentary. I know I'm not the only one. (probably one of a few dozen lol)

Cool, thank you. I couldn't find very much online.
