*** OFFICIAL *** Druff playing $100/$200 limit holdem on Stones Live Poker stream 9/18/2017 7pm PDT Thread

[Dan Druff]

Last month, Suicide King brought the Stones Live Poker game to my attention. It's basically a clone of Live at the Bike, except it takes place in the Sacramento area.

Occasionally they run a $100/$200 limit holdem game -- a game which otherwise doesn't run there.

It has been an "action" game on previous streams, so I decided to take a shot and join it. It's a very long drive (over 400 miles each way), but :whynot

I am scheduled for the game taking place at 7:00pm PDT on Monday, September 18th, 2017.

You can watch the stream here: http://www.stonesgamblinghall.com/stones-live/

This will be my first time on a live poker stream in over 6 years. I appeared on Live at the Bike in May 2011, playing $40/$80 limit holdem. That was the broadcast where I infamously ate several large plates of food, and announcer Bart Hanson was tricked by a troll into announcing that I was a former champion of "Man Versus Food".

Beauty. Being serious here, I can't think of anything poker related I'd rather watch. Is there live chat and how would I take a short position on this game?

Bart Hanson is a god.

[Suicide King]

If you win I expect a finder's fee. If you lose, you're a grown man who makes his own decisions. No fault of mine.

Take it down

Who knew Suicide King was a Jew.

[WillieMcFML]

it's not like you could play any worse than OSA

[hutmaster]

Perhaps you could arrange to take Marty's mother out
For dinner?

[hongkonger]

Druff are you going to drive in that day? I suggest the night before so you are rested. Or even fly there.

[HoodedN]

How far north is the Northern Cali guy? A tr of your first bong rips would be hof

Bart Hanson is a god.

IAPT owned his ass on this forum. Then grew bored

Plus he posted his Rousy Holm fight props & picks then proceeded to smash for 6 figures and documented all. Much more shenanigans.

Hanson... not so much.

Smash them Druff.

Edit
Couldn't figure out why anyone would breath Hanson's name. He might be a host?

I should point out to those that missed it ... IAPT is my shorthand for IAmProfessionalTalk on these fine forums

Ironic huh?

[BeerAndPoker]

May your cards be live and your plates be monsters.

I had nothing to do with that.

Night before. I considered being a Jew and doing it same day to save on a hotel room, but decided that wasn't a wise decision given the stakes of the game.

Not exactly what happened.

IamProfessionalTalk was a very good poster, and I was saddened when he left.

With that said, I didn't understand his attacks on Bart.

I tried to give him a chance to explain his grievance or criticism. If he had a real, verifiable (or likely to be true) issue to be attacking Hanson, definitely this was the forum for it.

However, I never found any clarity in his accusations. Mostly just unsubstantiated accusations like, "Bart has a huge gambling problem and uses BS training videos to fund that", but I didn't even see where that was relevant. On the whole, people seem happy with the quality of Hanson's training videos. What he does with his money in his personal life isn't an issue. I don't care if my poker trainer is a huge degen or horrible with money. I just care if he teaches me well. So even if the accusations against Hansen regarding gambling were true, it was irrelevant.

It just seemed like, for whatever reason, IAPT really hated Bart. He did seem to know a lot about Bart, and even knew khalwat's full name. At some point in the past, he developed a grievance against Bart. Maybe Bart just really rubbed him the wrong way, and he just grew to hate the guy. I don't know.

If you go back and look at the thread, I gave every opportunity for IAPT to present his case, but we didn't get much.

Then IAPT abruptly left. I think he was angry at me for shooting down his criticisms of Bart. I was sad to see that, as he was definitely an asset to the forum, but what could I do? I gave my honest opinion.

Good luck Druff!

[4BET]

I like the line set at 5.5 plates of food but before I try finding this bet on bovada, I must ask is the food free?

[Dan Druff]

I actually don't know the food situation there.

If it's free, yes, there will be plates ordered.

Any link to Druff's LAB?

Wayback link doesn't work.

If you're driving up from Southern Ca hit up the Harris Ranch in Coalinga for some tri tip to go. Helps get through that last 100+ miles and good luck.
