USMB Coffee Shop IV

Lumpy and I were having a discussion about finding old threads in the Announcements/Feedback forum and that caused me to check the date I joined USMB. It was October 11, 2007 which was exactly seven years ago today. Time does fly.
Happy anniversary!

82 and mostly clear in Foley this morning. We should top out about 84.

I have a running joke with one of my dealers at the poker tournaments at Doc's. He just can't hit a pocket pair.
Now, the odds are about 1:7 for hitting any pair on the flop, but Ryan has been at more like 1:20. It's been frustrating, to say the least.
Fast forward to last night. In 2 tournaments, he hit 8 of 8 pocket pair and I won 7 of those hands.
The one I didn't play was pocket 6's. Another player with pocket kings raised BIG and I didn't figure the risk was worth the reward.
the flop was Q 6 A giving the one player who called 2 pair and me with no cards, 3 6's. The turn card? Yup a 6. No guts, no glory.

I did win a piece of first place in the first tournament and lost the second. I made a $60. There is a game this afternoon, but I need a day off.
Is there an English translation available for this?

LOL. Apparently you don't play Texas Hold-em, the queen of all tournament poker games. :)

I don't play for money, the sharks can see me coming a mile away. Basically I suck at poker.
 
Happy Sunday:)

I don't either unless it is the penny ante variety. The only card game that I will really play for money is Black Jack at the casino. But both Hombre and I enjoy Texas Hold-em. for fun though.
 
It was nice, mid 70s with a light breeze...... Now the front is moving in, dropped 10 degrees in about 5 minutes, windy and the t-storms are approaching rapidly......

Just heard a rumble of thunder and the temp just dropped another 8 degrees in a couple of minutes.
 
I added deviantart last night on my twitter....and a russian? gal that does some mighty fine work...but I can't read the language, lol. Pics are great though!

I haven't played cards (except on my computer) in 40 years.
 
I tried again and nothing. So..I thought MAYBE you were following 007 and went there and there you were. So I found you but I had to go thru the back door and down the road, lol. You are now followed. :)

You are getting what we had early last night in SLC
 
57 degrees, chilly wind, grey running skies, going to be in the low forties or high thirties tonight.

Probably, haven't been paying that close of attention to the weather but it is coming from the northwest.
Just looked at region wide Doppler, looks like Foxy's getting some also.
 
Currently there's a nice t-storm southeast of and over downtown Trinidad, up here in the foothills we may or may not get any as the Spanish Peaks (45 miles northwest) will often "split" the storms causing them to go around us. I've seen rain all around us with blue skies just overhead from time to time. This time we might get some storms, storm clouds are over us right now.
By the way the Spanish Peaks are also (unofficially) known as Las Dos Tetas.......... It's pretty obvious why........

Nope. Sunny and pretty clear here--most of any activity is north and east and unlikely to come our way. Very windy though. We are under high wind warnings now until late tonight.

We often have the same phenomenon you are describing though....because of Albuquerque sitting inside a large bowl/basin so that you have to go up in all directions to drive out of here, plus the Sandias create weird winds as approaching lows pull the air over them, any moisture bearing clouds, especially snow clouds, are often torn up as they approach the city. So there can be weather all around us when it is mild and sunny here in the city.
