Good job, Will Shake. You made some interesting, creative plays last night and deserved to take it down. Welcome to the multiple winners club.

With the comment "You made some interesting, creative plays" Drud takes home the Backhanded Compliment Comment Award this week.

It's an award usually reserved for Ivan but the committee felt that the "Welcome to the multiple winners club" really put him over the top.

Congrats!

[Pick]

Shakes'on fire. Good job.

[Pibb]

Congrats Shake and Dogs. Wow 3 Complexers at the Final Table! When the hell dod that last happen.

Shock G, I'll happily collect on the Richie bounty. I'm sure it's a top-notch, quality prize.

The Drud to English Dictionary defines "interesting, creative plays" as the polite way to say "Nice suck out to put me out of the game". I had to call you...I had outs and even if I lost I still had 10K left. Plus, I was just feeling it last night.

Also I told Pibb that if i won I'd tell him what he folded to earlier in the night. It was a pair of sevens.

Thanks to the King for hosting.

Noice work Shakes- I was pulling for your brother but you will suffice.

I always thought Richie was the best backhanded complimenter: "Sorry for not putting up more of a fight" or "I just couldn't catch a hand against you! Nice work>"

Jamie's pretty good too. COme to think of it, the whole Too Beaucoup Crew is rife with backhanded compliments. It's their world, degenerates, we just live in it.

Nice job Will!

[Slim]

The Most is most correct. Can't believe I overlooked that, I guess I just always feel so good that I'm actually getting a compliment from them that I'm blinded by the backhandedness.

Oh and the committee has just decided to give the "Logical Strategic Play of Night Award" to Will Shake for the comment "I was feeling it". Suze could you please bring the trophy next week so we can present it to Will Shake? Thanks.

[the cooler]

maybe Drud is just mad that his interesting/creative playing style got out interested/creatived(is that the correct past tense? oh well) by someone else

[Drud Report]

I object to the assertion that my comments were backhanded (although I am still pissed at the suck out that I saw coming from seven miles away). On a few occasions, Will Shake made aggressive plays with absolute squadoosh -- against me once when I held top pair and against someone else earlier in the evening. His play demonstrated that he really was hungry for another victory.

However, IF only I had gone in with my suited J10 and driven him out of that last pot...

Argh

Nice job Will, you can use the winnings toward cutlery, or whatever else you domesticated married-folk buy.

Our grip on the season is loosening, boys. Degenerates, unite!

[Slim]

If you pushed preflop I think Will is creative enough to call with QT.

[will]

And if I wasn't creative enough I'd probably make up for it by being interesting.

[the cooler]

Or perhaps you would have felt it

[Jamie]

wait a second, how did i get lumped in with the Too Beaucoup Crew?

I am proud to be a honkey for life!!!

[Drud Report]

I say he doesn't call, and I'm sticking with it.

Cooler: you're probably right. He did outplay me (interesting and creative) in a couple hands and I'm not thrilled about it.

[Slim]

Ok let's say he doesn't get creative or interesting and he lays it down preflop. Dog's had AQ so he certainly would've called. To which you would've doubled up to take the chip lead.

Does that help the tilt at all?

[the cooler]

Jamie I think you meant to put a D infront of "onkey" instead of an H.

[Slim]

Can he even spell poker?

[Drud Report]

Thanks, Slim, but no... it doesn't help the tilt. I appreciate the gesture, but what happened happened. I can debate it all I want, but the sequence went down and Will take a big step towards securing the victory.

I'll be off tilt in about 18 hours.

[Pibb]

7's! Sadly, I don't remember what I held. So, I choose to remember it as a good laydown.

Unrelated: My buddy Fitzy's football picks for this weekend. A must if you're from New England.

Congrats Will.

Cooler that is easily the funniest thing you have ever said/written/thought.

I apparently need to get more interesting/creative with you characters.

[Slim]

I thought your all-in with the gutshot draw was pretty creative it's just too bad Jamie made a Honkey call.

Nickname change request-

From: Drud Report
To: Interesting/Creative/Could not possibly be more passionate about poker

Re-request-
From ALternate
To: Lame-O

[Drud Report]

To Most: :-)

To Storm: you're interesting enough that I did a pretty good imitation of you last night that went like this:

Drud (yelling): God &*%$&@*#* it!

Then, seeing Richard staring at me from his couch as I rumbled through his home...

Drud: Sorry about all the loud yelling, Richard.
Richard: It's the not the yelling [that bothers me], it's all the foul language.

The Perfect Storm, indeed.
