Official Announcement! Gameface Poker Resurrection -- Saturday Apr. 23rd @7pm

I also loved meeting Omar [MENTION=40]Siro[/MENTION] and @changeyourdamnname [MENTION=1355]devgchr[/MENTION] ;). There's little more I enjoy than meeting new Jazzfanzers. This place has some genuinely good people, and they also usually happen to be very intelligent which makes for a unique experience.

The IPA I had was flawed. My last half dozen batches, right up to the Third Cousin has had a flaw that I've been trying really hard to track down. I've done ridiculous amounts of cleaning, sanitizing, made sure ingredients were fresh and have spent a few hundred replacing stuff. That IPA was soooo good until it carbed up. Then it had the same issue as several previous batches. I was only left with one thing, the CO2 tank. Until recently AirGas would fill your CO2 tank on the spot. But they changed their policy and you can either leave your tank for several days for them to fill it or you can exchange it for one that's already full. So I swapped tanks. Anyway, the tank I had been using on my most recent beers wasn't empty but I was so disappointed that the IPA developed the same flavor as my other recent batches and I had to keg the Third Cousin in time for the poker game so I went and swapped that tank out. For the first time in several months I have a beer that did not develop that off flavor. Ugh, I'm glad that **** is over.

It's not like the beer was undrinkable, but it has a very noticeable harsh aftertaste. I've heard that rust inside the tank can cause issues, so I'm thinking that's what it was.
 
Nothing worse or more annoying than slow poker, if you've got a massive decision take 3 hrs idc but if you're sitting on 2 pair with a flush and straight draw on the board and you get pushed all in, gtfo in a reasonable amount of time..

I hate IPA but thought the one of yours I tried was very drinkable.

Sounds like you need to get a job at a paintball store for free CO2.

It's an everybody thing. If the Jazz got Durant, they'd win the championship next season.

I'm starting to think I'm being trolled.
You honestly believe if the Jazz add KD and drop Chris Johnson (or pick any other player on the team) they win the championship next season?

Nice to meet you, you're a JF favorite of mine.




NavaJoe was fine with it. Apparently him and the tall dude (Curtis?) were sparring a bit during the game. That guy seemed really cool to me and Joe liked him too.



I also didn't like some of the table talk, players not in hands commenting on hands. I strictly play poker for fun now and don't care as far as it goes for my specific purposes, but it is obnoxious for those who are competitive with the game.

It was good to meet you as well. I assumed when I had a notification that you quoted my post I was worried I was being called out on a lazy drunk post.

Pretty sure I was responsible for a lot of the table talk, I am pretty casual and get bored during poker. This was about as serious of a poker game as I want to play these days.
 
The only time I think table talk is an issue is when it alters the way the people in the hand play. So really, if you call their attention to a possible flush or clue them into a tell you've picked up on. Stuff along those lines. And between hands pretty much anything goes. I don't think the table talk was way over the top at all.

And if anyone asked me how much you had had to drink, Broncster, I would have guessed 2-3 beers and that you were probably below 0.08 BAC.

Since I frequently volunteer for the UHP to do field sobriety tests I know I hold my booze pretty well. I assumed if my talk was getting to be too much you wouldn't hesitate to say something and I would have listened and respected that.

I didn't notice any from you. I thought your quiet table had all their lips superglued together.
