Hi Spoon, I am genuinely curious about your ex-girlfriend, if you don't mind sharing the details, that is pretty fucked up if she tried to kill you!

She was mentally ill and tried to pull a car off the road while I was driving doing 70-80 mph down the highway on more than one occasion. She also woke me up in my sleep choking me more than once. It sounds a lot more interesting than it really is.

I was told that I have PTSD over it, but I'm not really into that kind of shit. I eventually stopped having trouble sleeping over it with fucked up nightmares and shit about two years after I split up with her.

Holy crap. I'm glad you escaped from that relationship.

What is your earliest poker memory?

I liked Antonio's commentary on this year's November 9. What did you think of this year's November 9?

This isn't my earliest memory of poker, but it's probably a more interesting story:

Back in like 2005 I had a moment which led me to finding FTR in the first place. I was playing NLHE cash games on PokerStars and had moved up to the dizzy heights of 10nl with my $50 bankroll. I'd figured out this amazing strategy of just waiting until I got a set or made my draw and shoving all-in. It worked wonders, so when I got up to about $75, I decided that 25nl was probably just as easy. I double up off some flush draw I hit or something, and one guy at the table has me covered. He raises pre, I call with 66. The flop comes 963 rainbow, and we get the stacks in. The board comes out something like 96323 and he has 33.

I literally threw up in my bedroom floor beside of my computer chair that I was sitting in.

As for the November 9, I really have no idea. I'm such a bad poker fan that I don't even know who's in it or who has won the past like four or five WSOP's.
