Not to nitpick your post Phil but if you are sipping free drinks while playing lousy quarter games - the drinks aren't free.

NO truer statement has ever been made on this forum. :)

Just the thought of Phil recognizing a true statement is hilarious.
It's a shame he can't differentiate between a clown and a comedian.

I know a clown when I see one. I guess the dog grooming place is closed today or did South Point cut your comps too? :clown:

question and after all my play, i thought i knew the answer. on 8/5 DDB, when dealt trip A's or trip 2-4, with available low kicker, does one keep the kicker in both cases?
thanks
Just got back to this. In DDB, you should never hold the kicker. In TDB, you should always hold the kicker. It bothered me when "billyjoe" wouldn't. If you don't hold kickers in full pay 9/7 TDB (99.58%), you're actually better off playing 9/6 DDB (98.98%). Yes, it's that big of a mistake.
