"... a half-dozen recent Stanford graduates and their friends, whose escapades, fueled by Rusty Nail and Green Apple cocktails, would delight Dean Martin." Smithsonian Magazine "For a few good belly laughs, read these true tales.... Amidst their PG-13-rated stories of ribaldry in Las Vegas, there is a surprising amount of intelligent discussion of poker." New York Times "... they dress in women's clothes and go to poker rooms. They think this is of great interest to other poker players. This strikes me as a rather pathetic, or at least sophomoric, attempt to get attention." rec.gambling.poker

Logic Puzzle

For those of you who weren't at the game last night, you missed a pretty
interesting hand.  I'll present it as a puzzle, and for those who where
there, don't give it away until the others have had a chance to guess! 
Closest explanation to what really happened gets a freeroll roshambo for
$5 from me.

The game is No Limit Blonus 8-handed.  Stern is under the gun and folds,
everyone else calls the big blind.  Skip to the result: Stern goes bust
for $300 when I scoop the pot from him and he doesn't improve on the
Blonus card.  Nobody else lost more than the initial $4.  How did it happen?

Rafe,

Just wanted you to know that having me bust you in the "Bad Beat on Cancer" turned out well, as I managed to take 3rd. My winnings have been donated to the Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation, in memory of Lorette Bradley, a very close friend of my family's who passed away last year after losing her fight with cancer.

Cheers,
Garth.
