i was a pledge almost 10 years ago, and everyone took making sure all that didn't happen very seriously. given how ridiculously sensitive everyone is now, there's no way it has gotten worse, and anything you hear is going to be an outlier. still, fraternities are going to be the most polarizing group, cause more people are yoloing. which is way better than everyone being a square, unless you are a huge square (mir).
LOL, this dude just called me a huge square. Is there anything more rough ridin' dorky than calling someone a square?
If I was in college now I don't know if I'd join a fraternity. I think it's sad that the heads of national fraternities are telling new members to do as we say not as we did. Now I understand certain things often were taken too far but good grief what is this with initiating new members in like 3 weeks? I personally felt I grew up a lot during pledgeship due to having structure for the first time in my life. I honestly needed it and when I/we got initiated it felt like I/we earned something because I/we spent an entire semester getting hazed pretty badly. Now it's hey wanna join our fraternity? Okay, say this oath and you're in.
Also dry houses?
I've never understood people willingly getting hazed, are most people just that weak willed?
I don't associate being hazed with being weak willed. In fact I find there are many pros to it such as bringing a group of people closer, weeding out people who don’t want to take the process seriously, teaches humility, promotes discipline and a sense of shared pride. And ask anyone here who in a Fraternity which hazed and they'll tel you looking back at it you just laugh and it makes for some great stories when you get together with your pledge bros.
And lets be honest there was no beatings, and no one was forced to do crap like the elephant walk or eff sheep.
if you have 250 and everyone has 600, effectively to you, everyone has 250. while they're playing a strategy for big stacks, if you play a game for short stacks, that has a built in advantage.
so you can take advantage and bully back. if it goes raise call call etc preflop, you could just go all in with 99+, AQ or AK (all depends on their position though), and either pick up all the dead money or flip for 250. or if people just call preflop, or it folds to you, make a raise with broadways and try to hit top pair.
Complete poker strategy in one paragraph
Last night, after too long a night of drinking a very evil temptation took over me... Being a regular at getting a massages here in Asia (legit) I found myself making the most awful decision in my life.. at one of the infamous flashy lit ?rub & tug?massage parlor. Needless to say, what a creep, loser, piece of crap, pure garbage.. I gave in to that inner demon and got a handjob..and then lied about it in the morning.. I'm here to say that I'm so so sorry to my everything, JinJin, my world, and her lovely family.Please take me back. I'm not a monster, but I have issues and need to resolve them. The major one, alcohol.. I'm vowing a life of sobriety the way my father has. I'm old enough to know what it does to me, and smart enough to stop. That said, I'm sorry to let you all down, and to the woman I adore and have been building a wonderful life together with,
Decided to get back into Low Stakes Live No Limit at the Casinos again at the beginning of April. I usually play one or two nights a week at KS Star, Mulvane or whatever casino I'm near at the time.
Cliffs: Been playing poker a lot more recently. Been doing pretty good. Played a really, really, bad last night and lost a big pot.
Brag: Ran up $5,300 profits (including dealer tips, booze, food, etc.) in about 90 hours mostly playing 1/3 nl wit a little 1/2 when I was in Vegas. Started w/ initial $450.
Beat: Lost biggest hand of the year (1/3) after I raise $25 from button pre w/ KTo over 4 limpers in straddled pot. 4 players see flop, including drunken gambooler old guy who has been running hot. We both have around $900 effective stacks. Flop ($105ish) comes 4cKh9c. Checks to villain in CO who bets $50. I see this as weak and either some 9x, TPWK hand, or flush draw. Instead of raising, I go passive and just call hoping jam villain's turn bet. All others fold.
Turn ($205) brings 10d, giving me two pair and completing a straight draw, which I'm not too worried about. Villain, instead of continuing smallish as he had done leads for $200. I'd planned on raising, but bigger bet through me for a loop. Range now looks more like two pairs, TPTK, Pair+draws, but includes sets, a miracle straight and frusterated club draw. With added showdown equity I elect again to just call rather than jam like originally planned.
River ($605) is just a terribad card for me. Jc. Straights and flushes abound and counterfits my two-pair against KJ, but convince myself there are still many hands in this villain's rainge that I can beat, including turning pairs+busted draws into bluffs, worse two pairs, etc. Villain has gotten increasingly drunk in the last 45 minutes or so. He looks at me and slurs "you gotta pair?" I do this. He mutters something under his breath then says "I'm just going all in." It's like $625. Because (wrongly) of what I've described earlier I convince myself to call. Terribly played the entire way by me.
Variance: Villain hangs his head and slams cards on the table face up. Guy next to him says "two clubs." Villain looks up, looks at cards and rakes pot. I muck. He had 82cc.
Villain staggers out 15 minutes later with all my chips.
what did you get canned for?Sirloin stockade
I was there 12 years ago. Dishwasher, lasted 1 month. Fired
Sirloin stockade
Also, I googled the guy, and I think he's trolling you and your beta-male obsessed pals, too. like his group did with the gamergate dudes. (is your group the gamergate people too?)
This is hilarious:
please dont edit my posts mods.
It's nice to have documented evidence of how you are a P.O.S. human being. I hope you show up to a PAK one day so I can IRL end your life. The prison sentence will be worth it, as I will be able to go to sleep every evening knowing my actions benefited mankind immeasurably.
Has anyone that is posting in here ever had a gun pulled on them?
