Hi Everyone,

It’s about that time again where I post another mailbag. As always these are real submissions from real readers all over the world (emails are bolded)

From Kristian:
i have one question… i see you now how you play pokerstar, 1vs1 with 2250$… and you almost always win, and, can you give me 5$? i will return your cash, and i will give same more cash… i have’t a credit card which should i have(i have masetrocard….

tnx in advance

Kristian, I am intrigued by both your offer of cash in exchange for the same more cash. As I learned in my contracts class last semester, this may be a valid binding contract but I have some concerns…oh wait that class was last semester…nevermind. What is a maestrocard?

From Jigger Jones:
Hi, Would you happen to know where I can get info such as: In Online Texas Holdem, whenever I get a king in the hole, an ace always falls on the board; why does three of the same suit fall on the flop when I have a different suit in the hole. Why do faces and aces fall on the board when I am dealt low cards, but low cards fall on the board when I get aces and faces, and yet when I get hands like A-2 or K-3, the board will show cards in the middle range. Why do I get so many deuces on the blinds? Why do I get a hundred times more deuces than aces in the hole?

Jigger Jones

Jigger, it is a statistical fact that someone has to be the unluckiest person in the world. I submit that you are it and that answers each and every one of your questions. Make sure not to go skydiving or take a law class with a rigid Socratic professor anytime soon. On the flip side, you drew an amazing name in the game of life.

From Jessica:
Steve, do any women read this blog? Given that you associate with wealthy guys that wish to live as bums my guess is a resounding no. Get a life.

Jessica, according to Google 84% of my readers are male. I have no idea how they have data for this. I apologize for my lack of life.

From Roman:
Hi! I am very glad that you have a blog … now have the opportunity in touch with you! My name is Roman. I have long been watching your game on PokerStars and me through your soul happy skill to play immediately for 5 tables at a minimum. I am from Russia. I just want to express to you a great Respect, your playing skills are very useful if you observe them!
I would like to ask you to help me, as a good person or even a good student … I have here a situation: my father told me if I make $ 600 in any manner for a week, then he would buy me a car, and I dream about it for over two years. So could you lend me $ 100-150? I certainly do not ask all the $ 600 because I am ashamed. I know that for you is a very small amount and you funny to look at these phrases, but still … Please understand me from the heart! If the $ 600 it will be simply impossible, I will be happy until the end of his days! glad you all my life …. Yes, even if $ 150 is also a pride for me … I have them try the same tricks to collect up to $ 600 as you do it ….
I know that you take the right decision …. Thank you great!

Roman, An interesting proposition from your father to you and I wonder again if it qualifies as a legal contract. If it does, then surely a gift from me to you of $150 would not qualify towards your $600 goal. Clearly the $600 is not a goal to be achieved to pay for the car, it is simply to prove that you have what it takes to repay his car loan. As a future member of the bar I cannot take part in defrauding your poor father. I was going to give you the money but you told me that you know I will take the right decision, the decision I am taking is to not take advantage of your fathers generosity.

From Jimmy:
Steve, I need advice. Recently my girlfriend has been ignoring me. I am 19 years old and a very successful poker player. I made 1000 dollars last month. She said she wants someone older so I sent her flowers to declare my love and show off my maturity. To make a very long story short, it didn’t work and she still is not answer my calls. I tried waiting outside her dorm room and that just made her angrier. Why isn’t she impressed by my dedication??

Jimmy, sorry man, that’s brutal

From anxioiu
I would like poker from you gift me cards. Life is cards if I am aces and I am not kings

Yup, these are my readers
