However, I would like you to understand some points in my response. <br /><br /> First, your right the most of "Minorities" that many of the Judiciary comes in contact are in the form of defendant's and not counselor's. That is the first reason I chose the Title "American Minority", as sort of a Philosophical rejoinder. <br /><br /> Secondly, you said I should stop self congratulating myself. If we as minorities, or for that matter any individual who stands or works alone, doesn't encourage him or herself, who shall. So yes I self congratulate and I don't feel that I spiked the ball. Let's face it every now and again we should spike the ball, for hard work done. G Wya pretentiously did it with the big banner on the U.S. Battleship.<br /> <br /> Next, I not aiming to be defined as a minority, I am making a responsive statement in a country that has already automatically categorized, and ostracized me. I am the reciprocal answer to that specious subjective, and ignorant classification.<br /> <br /> Lastly, you mentioned, my Role Model who I feel statistically, and ability wise, was the best Lawyer in America. You said that "No one remembers you as one hell of a Black Lawyer, I beg to differ, he was, and is remembered by majority, as exactly that. I think you should look up one of his interviews where he says "We are exiles in our own country", and should seize every civil opportunity to serve, influence, and control our outcomes.This is the very reason I have chosen to use the name not to be defined as a minority, but to sarcastically respond and exhibit, that I am not what you have categorized me to be. I have traveled all over the United States of America, up north, deep south (Martin Luther Kings' Home and Museum & University, Spellman Alma Mater), and (Thurgood Marshall's Alma Mater) Howard) in D.C. Gettysburg,Pa Battlefield, the Black Science Museum, the Capitol's Congressional Chambers, and while I was at the U.S.S.C. and saw the POTUS motorcade arrive for a Justices' Investiture, it was venerating, and it reinforced my over standing, that I am not what they ("the majority"), say or think I am, but I am the the ultimate "American Minority".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-20780145700317300122012-06-18T17:40:50.764-04:002012-06-18T17:40:50.764-04:00So he is going to just call 10k and pray to hit a ...So he is going to just call 10k and pray to hit a set on the turn (if you dont reraise)?

Sweden had seen enough of our play to know that neither Sally nor I played tight and both were capable of raising with nothing. Personally I follow Doyle Brunson's advice in the original Super System which is never to give a free card when an Ace first falls because you can now make the hi or low straight. So if I'm either of them with pocket pairs Im looking to call and see the turn. Also the pot odds are such that a call is reasonable with that amount of money on the table. This hand was not a lie, and I am proud of my lay down.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-90516016010346767032012-06-18T01:25:49.357-04:002012-06-18T01:25:49.357-04:0010:30 a.m., you should consider Angry Gurl's n...10:30 a.m., you should consider Angry Gurl's not so subtle suggestion and put on a parade of fine chicks on red bikinis and high heels to serve alcohol and greasy yummy food.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-45160391572684699492012-06-17T21:35:35.635-04:002012-06-17T21:35:35.635-04:00Bullshit poker story........nobody would ever call...Bullshit poker story........nobody would ever call that raise to 10k with only pocket fours after the flop, especially with the original raiser behind him and an A on the board.......if your going to lie at least make it somewhat believableAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-78508758006741878992012-06-17T18:31:51.789-04:002012-06-17T18:31:51.789-04:006:18

For the last dozen years or so...Hi From Vegas Rump. For the last dozen years or so I clear my June and July and rent a condo and play the world series events and of course, as most know, the big money at the WSOP is in the cash games where I hold my own and some of theirs. This happened last night: sitting 50-100 at the Bellagio- not the biggest game in the room but you can leave up or down 50K if you're not careful. <br /><br />I got pocket Aces and I'm third to act and I raise it to 1500. I get two callers: Sally Balls who I'm sure is a wise guy from Perth Amboy, New Jersey, and some internet player chick from sweden who sat down with a 35K stack of black chips. <br /><br />The Flop is A22 and I lead out for 3500 and Sally makes it 10 and Sweden calls. Now I got close to the nuts- Aces full of duces and I call. A 4 falls on the turn and I check and Sally makes it 15K and I toss in my full house because I'm fairly sure he has quad duces but Sweden calls. The river is a 4. To recap the board is A2244. Sally moves all in for his final 25 and sweden calls. So there's almost 95,000 in this pot and Sweden calls and this chick turns over 44 and of course Sally had 22. Two sets of quads and I folded a top full house!!!! What a hand. The 15k loss hurt but not as much when I saw my lay down. I grinded the rest of the night and went home about up 2K which is almost my daily nut out here ( food, rent, office expenses in MIA, child support, alimony, and the 25 year olds who are happy to spend a few relaxing hours with me at my condo). But what a hand!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-46964405651008315432012-06-17T18:07:19.354-04:002012-06-17T18:07:19.354-04:00AG

I am not a gambler....My FINAL word on this subject. I am not a gambler. I am a mathematician. I absolutely abhor gambling of all kinds and especially casinos. The evil that casinos do to decent peoples' bankrolls is most unfortunate and very often tragic. I never play roulette, craps, keno, slots, etc. because the house advantage will always get the player in the end. I have tried my hand at hold 'em poker and basically suck, so no more poker for me. The appeal (for me) of blackjack is that the game can be beaten, another words turning the usual house advantage in my favor, by the application of sound quantitative principles grounded in mathematical probability. I have been counting cards since 1972 and have always been fascinated with math since taking calculus in college. I thought the scenario here raised the possibility of raising a significant sum of money for the American Cancer Society, a charity I have supported in the past through sales of my rock 'n roll CDs.

The first responds, the second issues a challenge and now we're talking about throwing around money that many working class people work all year to earn and feed their family with. <br /><br />Of course it spins out of control and now there's a proposal to put it in a bar and now there's beer guzzling and gorging on fatty foods while swilling alcohol while watching the two boys fight.

If we can keep our cool when all those around us aren't- we have the makings of a real live blog event here. <br /><br />I propose the following:<br /><br />each participant put up 15k- 10,000 for profit 5,000 for charity- so the winner risks 15 and wins 20 and the charity gets 10. <br /><br />Plus we sponsor the event: "the small blind is brought to you by Markus and Markus- tough federal cases need tough federal lawyers"... and "Ric is in the big blind and the big blind is brought to you by Terry Lenamon and his death penalty clinic. Don't let the state put you to sleep without a fight." <br /><br />The dealer can wear a Ticket Clinic jersey- "Don't gamble with your license. Hire the ticket clinic for all your traffic needs." <br /><br />The participants can wear sponsor labels as well. <br /><br />We do this at a local bar- say Tobacco road and charge a $50.00 ever for a few beers and some sliders and wings and give the proceeds to charity, and we also record it and sell the DVD. Ric can give a twenty minute lecture on bond hearing and pass out some materials and we can get 1 hr CLE and sell the disk for charity as well. <br /><br />If we do this right, I'm thinking 50,000 for charity maybe 75. Stan Blake can MC. Alex can stand off to the side and mutter curses. Joel Brown can...well he can do what he always does. <br /><br />I think this is a winner here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-47221353180614077392012-06-17T10:20:14.189-04:002012-06-17T10:20:14.189-04:00Romania stud!
