Euchre is awesome. Blackjack and Hold em are the only games that i've played for money. I wouldn't play for any serious cash unless i knew i was good, there's a lot of sharks out there and my roommate is one of them. Think of matt damon from rounders, he's putting himself through university with casino winnings. And he's got a whole group of buddies from back home that are all very good players. It's unreal the shit this guy knows, we're watching poker series and he's contradicting what the annoucers are saying, questioning why Phil Ivey did this, or why Hellmuth did that. unreal.
rudey, he has a pokerstars account, but prefers partypoker instead. I'm not gloating for Mike - but his presence and skill are what fuels my trepidation. As i type this, he's got 3 games on the go. If you don't believe me, i'll PM his name handle to you so that you can watch him. I don't recommend to play mike, as i don't to any of my buddies here in ottawa.
It's funny, we hear how poker is a zero sum game and how all these props are living the lifestyle from a game of cards - well, it's gotta be at somebody's expense.....this is why i'll stick to blackjack.
