This was only natural. PokerStars Chapel has been up and running for a week with 0.3% of the proceeds being delivered to relief of Japanese earthquake and tsunami victims. As the typical marriages are only those with $300 and a beat up pair of shoes to their name it was time to court some high profile celebrities. For those not acquainted with math - 0.3% of millions is a lot more than 0.3% of $300 and a small shaving of the tongue flap on the shoe.
As my homage to Liz I settled into Cleopatra on cable. It's been ages since I've seen it. And that's when it struck me to Google looking for some sort of bizarre refernce that connects Charlie Sheen to Liz.
We here at the Big Lay Down found it, and despite my lawyers warnings it's about to get posted. You already know this involves a dead person, so cue up the scary music.
Da da da daaaaaaaa!
This match made in heaven/hell/defunct Hot N Now Outlets was predestined. Charlie is the King of Denial. As Cleopatra, Liz is Queen of de Nile.
And those that play Internet Poker, whether you attended the wedding or not, are in denial.
Look at that screenshot. This vaccuum bet $61. That's with a $1 at the end instead of an even multiple of ten.
It can't be done. When you're on the action there's a slider bar that only allows you to bet in even multiples of $10. Unless you're rigged AI and/or an admin. When playing IP there's always someone or something out there that can break the rules, naturally get great supposedly random cards and beat you to a pulp. And before you think I photoshopped the $ bet, look at the chip stack that shows the bet. There's no way anyone has the time and desire to be in the face of IP to work on that.
Maybe some day IP will settle down into being a fun interface. But they're just having too much fun cheating addicts out of their hard earned dollars.
