| JR |
Hi all - Welcome to the (name to be determined) team page. Rather than posting here that you are interested in being on my team. I'll try the PM approach. That way the other teams won't get jealous when everyone wants to be on the same team as me  . I will need two very strong players to compensate for my lack of ability. I also have some possible team names that I'll run through the team.

 Bacchus is the name of :
The Greek god of wine and intoxication, Dionysus, known also as Eleutherios (a.k.a "the Liberator"). Bacchus was also known to Romans. And for the rest : Saint Bacchus, Christian martyr, companion to Saint Sergius 2063 Bacchus, asteroid Bacchus grape variety, grown predominantly in Germany Bacchus (comics) by Eddie Campbell. Bacchus (Marvel Comics), a group of Amazon villains in the Marvel Comics comic book X-Men. Bacchus-F, energy drink from South Korea. Krewe of Bacchus, a large New Orleans Mardi Gras parade. Bacchus Marsh a large town in central Victoria, Australia .........nice restaurant too !!!

| HOUSECATS |
The Greek god of wine and intoxication, Dionysus, known also as Eleutherios (a.k.a "the Liberator").
looks like they well be drunk so it well be easy to liberate the from there chips 
|
||||||
| harry_lime |
....but at least we'll win or lose happy !
|
||||||
| Brian Wills |
Yes & we will send these convicts packing....I say deport them to Bacchus Marsh like in the 1800's 
|
||||||
| harry_lime |
guys - should we have an avatar for the game ? | ||||||
| JR |
Harry - I think thats a good idea. We can use the picture you have a few posts earlier or we can look for something a little more intimidating. | ||||||
| fooraces |
heres a couple? that are intimidating 2 me. That guy is scary.  YW 4As
|
||||||
| harry_lime |
to make things easy, perhaps we should just use one from the Nordica library.
for example : ...he looks like an S.O.B.
|
||||||
| Amarillo4 |
I agree that we should have some sort of avatar.
Using one from the Nordica selection is the easiest option so that would suit me. |
||||||
| harry_lime |
so captain JR - which avatar are we going to use !
|
||||||
| JR |
Harry/Amarillo - I looked for a good avatar last night but came up empty. Lets go with the Nordica one you suggested. | ||||||
| harry_lime |
mr. grumpy it is then ! 
...................................................................................................................... plus guys, i don't know if you want to do this :
i'm happy to split or play individually !
|
||||||
| JR |
Splitting is OK with me. I think this is the fairest way of doing it since I expect the individual play to be altered due to team interest. What do you think Amarillo? |
||||||
| addam00 |
What your gonna split zero dollars 3 ways. I can see that will happen | ||||||
| Amarillo4 |
Suits me, we split the top 3 prizes 3 ways.
|
||||||
| Amarillo4 |
Have just changed my icon to Mr Grumpy. 
|
||||||
| harry_lime |
........good luck you SOB's !!!
|
||||||
| Amarillo4 |
I was no help to the team
First out, lost most of my chips when dealt AK, flop and turn were Ace, Queen jack and ten to give me Ace high straight, Brian went all in, guessed he had the same but he had two spades and there were 2 on the board, the river gave him the flush. Went out with A 10, hit 2 pair but lost to Ace high straight. Not my nitght. 
|
||||||
| harry_lime |
i figured you went out early so you could put your feet and collect the cash at the end .
we'll do our best for you mate, so far so good !
|
||||||
| harry_lime |
don't know why i called that last hand jr. sorry guys - stupid play.
really unlucky at the end there with mura - it just got silly with the hands they were catching. well played anyway, here's to next time. |
||||||
| JR |
Sorry guys. On my last hand I thought I was going to double up against Mura with my Q high flush only to see his K high flush. Earlier hand I had top pair and nuts flush draw, had to push only tolose to Mura's trip 7's. | ||||||

||||||

You have been flushed! Good luck in the tournament from the Flushmonkeys. |
||||||
| Fusspilz |
Hi JR, Hi Harry, I've just seen our avatar. Scary. Please tell me, where did you find this picture of my lunatic twin-brother. Me and my family always thought he was well locked and hidden from public in our dark cellar .
|
||||||
| harry_lime |
you mean the little yellow one for Nordica or JR's mad uncle pictured with the wine (or should that be meade) ? maybe you guys are related !
i just noticed something this morning too :- ....the S.O.B.'s are currently leading the 3 MLP leagues. wtg guys.
|
||||||
| JR |
Sorry I haven't been around much the past week or so, Mrs. JR had a knee replaced and was in the hospital for 5 days. She is home now and coming along nicely.
Good luck today men. Just changed my avatar to Mr. Grumpy. |
||||||

|
||||||
| CancunGirl |

|
||||||
| harry_lime |
sorry guys. first off my pocket aces got out tripped and then i was donked out by KN (J 10 indeed ).
wasn't to be my day. |
||||||
| Fusspilz |
Sorry, mine neither.
Rivered 2 times and lost my last chips when I was outkicked with Q10 against QJ on a Qxx flop. But I hope we will have our revenge next time. |
||||||
| JR |
I had my worst run of cards in a long time. My best was pocket 9's and raised and everyone folded. Had better than A9 twice. My AQ lost to pocket K's and on my last hand my AJ ran into pocket Q's. Hopefully we will get a chancde to redeem ourselves sometime in the future. | ||||||
| harry_lime |
....well there's only one way to go from last place !!!
