Modern and minimal, this bathroom light is sleek and refined. A satin nickel backplate is paired with a white etched glass bar that emits energy efficient LED light. From the Linton Collection by Elk Lighting.
Customers most agreed on the following attributes:
Sleek, hip, modern. Got here in one piece! That's four positives; a personal record for me. ;)
Our powder room reno finally felt right the minute our guy installed this. Affordable and nice
Big let down when I received product. Very cheaply made in China. Ripples in metal finish and dents in same spots on both lights I purchased. screws that hold glass on to fixture should have been 1/4 inch longer and person putting lights together scratched both of them.

The panel voted along party lines, to continue a freeze that's been in place the past four years. However, Republicans did not control costs as much as Gov. Walker hoped they would. Long-Time Poet, First-Time Author: Aja Monet on Publishing, Womanhood, and Freedom Fighting By Joy Powers • 17 hours ago Jonathan Shoemaker / Aja-Monet/Facebook It's hard to encapsulate a person's life and experiences in printed words. No matter how eloquent the writing, there will always be moments and pieces left to speculation. This was one of Aja Monet's biggest worries when she first considered publishing her poetry. Development Boosts Milwaukee's Housing Market, But Segregation Remains Prominent By Joy Powers • 17 hours ago formulanone / Flickr It's hard not to see the many changes currently happening in the city of Milwaukee. From the torn-up streets making way for the new Milwaukee Streetcar, to the ongoing construction of the new Bucks Arena - the city is making a visible transformation, unlike anything seen in recent decades. And it's not just Milwaukeeans who are taking notice. U.S. News and World Report just ranked Milwaukee as one of the top three up-and-coming places to live in the country. Are Cyber-Attacks the New Normal for Businesses? By Mitch Teich • 19 hours ago Forbes / Forbes Magazine Institutions in the U.S. were generally spared the worst of the recent ransomware attack called WannaCry. But there's no guarantee the U.S. won't bear the brunt of the next cyber-attack that comes along. UWM Researcher Hopes Sensor is Step Toward Lead Contamination Solution By Susan Bence • May 25, 2017 Susan Bence / Milwaukee Public Radio Mechanical engineering researcher Junhong Chen believes his wafer-thin sensor will help detect even trace amounts of lead in water. PhD candidate Guihau Zhou is one of six students who have dedicated three years helping Chen develop the technology in his lab at the Global Water Center in the Walker's Point neighborhood. Zhou demonstrates by extracting a drop of water from a vial and releasing it onto a wafer-thin sensor. I wager it would take 10 sensors to fill the surface of a DIME. Milwaukee County's Use of Risk Assessment Tool Keeps Some People Out of Jail While Awaiting Trial By Ann-Elise Henzl • May 25, 2017 Milwaukee County may be putting fewer suspects in jail while they're awaiting trial. That's because for the past year, the court system has been using a new risk assessment tool. It gauges whether a person charged with a crime is likely to flee or commit another crime, if he or she is released. A number of states are using the strategy. Officials using the approach here shared their experiences at the Marquette University Law School on Wednesday. As Turmoil Displaces Middle Eastern Christians, Scholars Work to Preserve Syriac Culture By Mitch Teich • May 24, 2017 DFM Collection / Centre numérique des manuscrits orientaux The continued depletion of religious diversity in the Middle East could be contributing to the death of one of the oldest living languages, known as Syriac. The language holds both religious and historical significance, but as political turmoil wreaks havoc in the region, Syriac and its native speakers face an uncertain future. A group of scholars meeting this week at Marquette University is working to preserve both the language and the cultural traditions that accompany it. Milwaukee Magazine Offers a Rare Profile on 'Silk Exotic' Owner John Ferraro By Audrey Nowakowski • May 24, 2017 Mihalis A. / Fotolia Adult entertainment has been with us for as long as there have been, well, adults. But most erotic dancing, whether it takes place in strip clubs, burlesque shows, or on a brightly lit stage full of Chippendale dancers, is just not a thing a city wants to be known for. Despite the taboo that often surrounds these establishments, though, there is no doubt that the industry is a lucrative one. The Discovery of Life Beyond Earth May Be Closer Than We Think By Jean Creighton & Bonnie North • May 24, 2017 dottedyeti / Fotolia The question cinema has tried to answer time and time again, with the most recent attempt by the movie Arrival, may finally have an answer as astronomer Jean Creighton provides promising new hope for whether life can exist beyond earth. "There could be life right now in the solar system unbeknownst to us," says Creighton. Essay: Sen-Sens and Cigarettes By Cari Taylor-Carlson • May 24, 2017 Ioan Sameli / Flickr Our view of our parents evolves as we get older - from believing they're omnipotent to understanding they aren't, and that they are fallible.

Milwaukee Area Has Wide Gap Between Black And White Joblessness By LaToya Dennis • May 24, 2017 Metro Milwaukee continues to rank last in the country when it comes to the unemployment gap between black and white residents. According to the annual report the Urban League issues, unemployment among blacks here is nearly 14 percent, while the rate for whites is under 3 percent.

Could a Bioplastic Made from Manure Solve Wisconsin's Waste Woes? By Joy Powers • May 23, 2017 Mestic / Facebook While Wisconsin is known as the Dairy State, perhaps a better moniker would be: the Land of Milk and Manure. With more than 1.2 million dairy cows in Wisconsin, the state is inundated with trillions of pounds of manure every year. But Wisconsin is not alone.

Each day from now until Feb. 2, ESPNNewYork.com will take you inside the challenge of staging the most unpredictable NFL title game ever. There are 11 days until the Super Bowl.
Getting to Super Bowl XLVIII in East Rutherford, N.J., isn't going to be easy. That's not to say it isn't worth it, or it or you won't enjoy the game when you get there, but the fan experience at a New York/New Jersey Super Bowl is going to be significantly different than any other Super Bowl in a few ways.
It's simple logistics. MetLife Stadium is miles away from where most people will be staying, whether that's in Manhattan or Moonachie. Fans will have to plan their trip in and out well in advance or risk missing part of the game.
The access to and from this year's event will be strictly controlled. You will not be able to walk to the game from across the street, and a cab or car won't be able to drop you off near MetLife Stadium. The Super Bowl Host Committee is calling this the mass transit Super Bowl, and that's because the majority of fans will have to take a bus or train to get there.
Here are your options:
• What exit?: A parking pass costs $150 and there may still be a few for sale on the official website. As this story was reported, one lot still had passes available. The official transportation website stipulates that scalping parking passes is strictly verboten. But I did find passes for sale on StubHub starting at $291. There are only about 12,000 parking passes available, compared to 28,000 for a typical game day, and tailgating is not permitted.
• Get on the bus, Gus: This is a bus to MetLife Stadium that costs $51 per seat, and requires a ticket to the Super Bowl in order to get on board. The bus isn't a shuttle, where you show up and ride. You book a specific bus leaving from one of seven locations in Manhattan and New Jersey. Some of these buses are booking up, notably the ones leaving from Grand Central and the Waldorf. You also have to book a specific return bus to the same location you departed from.
• All aboard NJ Transit: This is the least expensive option, although the price varies depending upon where you get on the train. You can start your trip at Penn Station if you are in New York City. All ticketholders will have to go to the Secaucus hub, where you can board a train heading to the Super Bowl. Fans will need to have both their train ticket and a Super Bowl ticket in order to gain entry to the train bound for MetLife Stadium.
Cars will all be swept for explosives on their way into the stadium on game day, and anyone who rides a Fan Express bus or NJ Transit train will have to go through metal detectors and possible bag checks before boarding.
Once fans get to the stadium, they will have to go through one of seven Welcome Pavilions on the grounds. These will feel a lot like airport security, with metal detectors and bomb-sniffing dogs. Security opens at 2 p.m. on Feb. 2 and fans will want to give themselves extra time for screening.
Season-ticketholders are used to the no-bag policy that the NFL instituted this year, but everyone else should check the official guidelines. You will only be allowed to bring one small clear plastic bag with you, and the NFL discourages even that. There is one gate designed to screen people who need to bring additional medical items.
Each fan will get a welcome bag filled with items like hand warmers and texting gloves. That and a few beers may be enough to stay cozy on a mild day, but casual NFL fans will want to dress like they are heading to the arctic. This game will take longer than a regular-season NFL game due to commercials and timeouts (but hopefully not blackouts).
There are warm common areas available for fans in the club seats, but not for the upper bowl, and the winds can make it extremely cold at night.
Whatever you decide to do, plan ahead. Bus reservations and parking passes are already disappearing.
In any case, enjoy what could be an epic game between the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks, two teams who know how to handle the elements.

Joaquin Benoit (+23%) was the most added player this week after Huston Street was traded to the Angels. Benoit was scooped up by those looking for saves obviously, but he's a decent pitcher all around. Can he be trusted going forward? The big question isn't whether we should pick up Benoit. That's a no-brainer in the short term. No, the big question is will he actually remain with the Padres as their closer or will he be shipped out at the deadline to a contending team in need of bullpen help. I do not have the answer to that particular question, sorry. Teams like the Indians, Tigers, and Pirates (among others) have been linked to trade talks with the Padres regarding Benoit. Should he head somewhere and close it's no big deal, but if he lands somewhere in a different role, it could kill some or even all of the saves value that makes him attractive target right now. To sum up, he's a treasure if you need some cheap saves, but he could quickly turn to trash depending on how things shake out over the next two weeks and quite frankly, how many saves is he really going to rack up with the worst offense in baseball anyway? Here are this week's other big adds and drops in 2014 fantasy baseball…Please, blog, may I have some more?
Fantasy Baseball Buy/Sell
Welcome to the unofficial second half of the fantasy baseball season. If you're reading this, I tip my dirty turban in your general direction, because that means despite half your roster being on the DL you're still in the hunt for all the cash, bragging rights, glory and glory holes that is a fake baseball championship. If you're reading this because you thought this was a Ben Wa ball site, let me be the first to apologize and welcome you to the Razzball Lounge. I'm sure we have some of those balls around here somewhere. Tehol? This is the place we almost award winning fantasy scribes come to pour over the numbers a little and pour out the scotch a lot more. Bellying up to the bar in his Montreal Expos Gary Carter throwback we find resident Razzball Radio on the TV host Nick C-A-P-O-Z-Z-I. "I'll trade a Razzball 32 in 32 in 32 ticket for one more Labatts and two of those Slim Jims." Over at the juke box is the Razzball editor-in-kimchee Jay(Wrong) dropping quarters and lip syncing to Color Me Badd's "I Wanna Sex You Up" for the seventh time. "Hey guys, I drafted Joaquin Benoit in the third round. Who's the expert now?" *bottle smashes above head* Duct taped to the bar stool is rookie writer Ralph Lifshitz. Feel free to draw this on his face with a Sharpie. "Hazing is a crime ya know!" Silence, rook! Staggering out of the ladies room with his latest conquest is the one and only Tehol Beddict. "Why the long faces gang? I've been in last place since April." And won't you join your-humble-yet-not-quite-sober Guru here at the pool table. *adjusts turban, closes eye, banks cue ball off three rails, sinks eight ball, lights smoke, sets beard on fire* Shut off that damned boy band crap and put on some Motorhead. It's time to play the game. It's time to jam it or cram it.Please, blog, may I have some more?
The Save Vulture is no ordinary animal. Or Jordanian animal, as my autocorrect wanted me to write. The Save Vulture doesn't need much sunlight. The Save Vulture doesn't need water in its purest form; it can distill water from cola, in a process called sodasynthesis. The Save Vulture is strictly a meat eater. It's even been known to remove vegetables that are in the proximity of meat it plans on devouring. The one thing it considers a vegetable is a potato and that's in chip form, which it consumes daily. The Save Vulture is not a social animal, but it does have close ties to its mother. Sometimes staying in the nest for 35 to 40 years. Once it leaves the nest, it usually latches onto a partner that nurtures it like a mother would. The Save Vulture doesn't work much, except six months a year when it's scrolling through a fantasy waiver wire for potential closers. The Save Vulture's most active time is the last two weeks of July when closers could change teams, thus making a new reliever a closer. The Save Vulture preys on the weakness of others who lose their closer. This year, one of the most likely targets for The Save Vulture is Ken Giles with Jonathan Papelbon likely being traded. The Save Vulture is also flying over Huston Street, waiting to swoop in on Joaquin Benoit's carcass. Do you think The Save Vulture isn't looking at Neftali Feliz if Joakim Soria is traded? You must be Joakim. Some desperate Save Vultures are talking about Koji Uehara being traded and Edward Mujica taking over. Not to be confused with Huston Street, but Chad Qualls on a Houston St. could go to a contender and Jesse Crain or Tony Sipp or Josh Fields or Jose Veras or Craig Biggio in a bad wig would step in. Could LaTroy Hawkins get moved? You bet your white Blackmon! In that case, Adam Ottavino or Rex Brothers would step in. The Save Vulture is even monitoring Matt Lindstrom's rehab, knowing if he's healthy in the next few weeks, he could take over again. The Save Vulture doesn't bathe itself, unless you count spilled soda, but it is the most diligent about stealing closers this time of year, I suggest you do the same. Anyway, here's some more players to Buy or Sell this week in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Greetings! Tis I, the one and only Tehol Beddict, AKA Beddict Shmurda, here to put you on game and put lames to shame, but first let me show you how to do my dance. It's been a rough week for your old pal, Tehol, as I've been house hunting, searching Seattle in it's entirety for the perfect Beddict Mansion. I located what I believed to be my dream house, only to have my offer rejected for another in the wee hours of the night, sending me into the type of violent rage that would even make Mel Gibson cringe. The fury soon morphed into sorrow, as I curled up a$$ naked on the floor, cradling my beloved chicken, Beatrice, bawling my eyes out while screaming insults at the Elder Gods for all to witness. I tell you this, not so you'll empathize with me, but so you'll know that if some of my predictions end up being a tad off, it's because the Elders are clearly continuing their massive and almost unbearable onslaught of punishment against me. This may sound as if I'm already making excuses, but if you knew the Elder Gods at the depths at which I do, you'd know never to curse them, let alone curse them within earshot of other mortals.Please, blog, may I have some more?
With the All Star Game, we were all witness to the unpredictability of baseball. It's a long haul, and on draft day in March, very few, if any of us, would have picked Charlie Blackmon to make the All-Star Game roster for the National League. But that's the case, and Blackmon, along with several other surprises, was most likely scooped up very late in drafts or off of the waiver wire in most fantasy leagues. For this week's post we'll look at four players, including Blackmon, whose average draft position (ADP) was 260 or higher but who currently find themselves in the Top 50 on both the ESPN and Razzball player raters. These players had phenomenal first halves but the question most fantasy owners want answered is whether or not they will keep it up. Are they "trash" or "treasure"? Will they carry teams to victory in September or are they about to implode? It's hard to call any of these guys trash the way they have performed, but some may be more reliable than others going forward. Since all of these playerss have been good, I'll use the term "TRASH" to designate the guys that are holds instead of buys. I'm not recommending they be dropped or sold for pennies on the dollar. Here are four names that came out of the woodwork in the player rater's top 50 for 2014 fantasy baseball…Please, blog, may I have some more?
Has the Derek Jeter Memorial Midsummer lovefest ended in Minnesota yet? I need an afterglow cigarette and one of those Jeter gift baskets after that All-Star reach around. Hey, as a Red Sox fan I can actually tip the turban to Jeter for a great career ( I just vomited in my mouth a little), but it's not like Jeets is on his death bed muttering "Rosebud" or was the greatest player of his generation. Or was he? At least Adam Wainwright wasn't grooving pitches to him for the last 20 years. With the fantasy DT's settling in, I turned my trembling hands to Razzball's Historical Fantasy Baseball Player Rater to check the numbers. I was surprised by what I found. No surprise that the top 3 fantasy players of all-time were Ruth, Aaron and Cobb, but it is interesting to note that Jeter ranks in the top 50 at No. 41. The Yankees captain ranks just ahead of Hall of Famers like Jim Rice, Paul Molitor, George Brett and should be Hall of Famer Pete Rose. According to the Razzball Rater, Jeter is the No.6 shortstop all-time ahead of Robin Yount, Barry Larkin, Joe Cronin and Pee Wee Reese. Now, as Jeter rides off into the pinstriped sunset, he currently ranks as the 22nd best shortstop in our fake ballin' world. Not great, but still better than more heavily owned players like J.J. Hardy, Xander Bogaerts and Brad Miller. In honor of the departing Jeets, his "dating diamond", the Midsummer Classic and the fantasy baseball DT's, let's jam or cram the currently under-owned (60% or less) waiver wire All-Stars.Please, blog, may I have some more?
I Can't Remember Anything
Can't Tell If this Is True or Dream
Deep down Inside I Feel to Scream
this Terrible Silence Stops Me
Now That the War Is Through with Me
I'm Waking up I Can Not See
That There's Not Much Left of Me
Nothing Is Real but Pain Now
That's Metallica singing their ode to darkness, landmines and your 2014 fantasy roster. While I'm a big fan of the San Fran thrashers (and make a quick appearance in their Binge and Purge video collection), I'm not a fan of the creeping death that is the 2014 fantasy baseball season that currently has 151 players on the disgraceful list. As we hit the halfway point of the season the fantasy battlefield is littered with disposable heroes *insert 151 players here*. The latest casualties include Masahiro Tanaka (elbow), Edwin Encarnacion (quad), C.J. Wilson (ankle), Yadier Molina (thumb) and Brandon Phillips (thumb). Oh, is there anyone else for whom the bell tolls? Yup. Hanley Ramirez is getting injections in his shoulder, Mat Latos tweaked his back twerking, George Springer is dealing with a cranky knee, David Price has the sniffles and Jordan Zimmermann accidentally zipped up his zimmy. FML. I'm not one to quit mid-season, but I'm at my frayed ends of sanity here and it may be time to take up fantasy cricket. Before we hit the All-Star break, we have to drag the broken, beat and scarred off the stage and fire up the jammer crammer machine© as we go through the never looking for those players that just might inject some life into a lineup that is ready to fade to black. Take my hand, it' s off to never never land – it's time to jam it or cram it.
If you're looking for more jams and crams, check out Razzball Radio.Please, blog, may I have some more?
Going back to one of my old favorites, that I didn't like for awhile, then did like, then loved, then hated, then should've loved but hated, then was nonplussed about, then Googled nonplussed to make sure I used it right, then took a nap, then clapped my hands, shot up out of bed and kissed my 'Donna Martin graduates' screenshot, scrubbed my undercarriage with my Q-Bert loofah and sat down to write about why you should sell Anibal Sanchez. Anibal's K-rate is in the dumper. Big enough sample size to be concerned — that's not what she said! Huh? His velocity is off. More concern. That dirty Sanchez! He hasn't been great, but he's been much worse when you throw out favorable luck. His xFIP is at 3.91, and he looks similar to the pitcher he was in 2010 when he had a 7 K/9 and a 3.55 ERA. Only he was in Florida then and against NL teams. I could see Anibal's ERA continuing to rise and I don't see much relief for his lack of Ks (currently a 6.9 K/9). 6.9 K/9? Who are you, Chase Anderson? Who the hell is Chase Anderson? I wouldn't sell Anibal for tickets to see PM Dawn, but I would explore options. Anyway, here's some more players to Buy or Sell this week in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Clayton Kershaw is no longer just dominating…
Last week, I looked at the luckiest pitchers to date. Clayton Kershaw was not only the most "skillsy," but he was also slightly UN-lucky. Do you believe that?! His BABIP is actually the worst since 2008 while the HR/FB is the third worst of his career (still not bad) meaning his left-on-base rate is potentially the only luck he has going for him thus far, but then there are these splits:Please, blog, may I have some more?
When I saw what Steve Pearce had done over the past two weeks, questions arose. The main question being, "Who the hell is Steve Pearce?" He's the most added player on ESPN (+43%) and now has ten homers and 30 runs batted in with just 189 plate appearances. He's even thrown in four steals! He does everything! This feels very hot schmotatoish if you ask me, but who cares when there are about a half dozen corner infielders sitting on your wire right now. Might as well ride the hot hand and if it doesn't continue we can fall into the waiting arms of Casey McGehee or C.J. Cron. Aside from strikeouts, Pearce's splits are nearly identical against left and right-handed pitching, but his best stuff comes at home against left-handers where he's rocking a 205 wRC+. I'm not sure the .365 BABIP will hold up and his 17% HR/FB% is almost twice his career average, but I'd wager we didn't pay more than a waiver wire claim for him so let's ride the wave. Here are the other big adds and drops for this week in 2014 fantasy baseball…Please, blog, may I have some more?

In connection with the Swift Boaters, we should also mention the ongoing smear campaign against another Vietnam War hero, Chuck Hagel. I find it unacceptable that a draft dodging, war mongering piece of filth like William Kristol should be running his word processor against Hagel and even worse, that anyone listens to him. And that a supposedly "liberal" Washington Post runs blog posts by a fascist whore like Jennifer Rubin, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Rethuglican Party.

Absolutely. These Chicken Hawks have no experience with warfare beyond their discussions and pronouncements, and sending off to battle the mostly poor and working class kids who volunteer for service with the hope of having their educational expenses covered if they survive. They have no sense of what my grandfather, a veteran of the brave 314th Infantry in France in 1918, described to me as, "crawling on your belly in the mud while getting shot at again and again, and not being able to stop and help your buddy next to you when he gets hit (by gunfire or explosivrs) And Kristol was chief of staff to Vice President Dan Quayle, another notoriously privileged draft dodger during the Vietnam war.

And if you criticize the needless, endless wars that they initiated, their response is to challenge your patriotism for not supporting the troops who had no voice in the decisions to fight these useless, destructive wars or in their five or six deployments to the battlefield in as many years. And they oppose the funding necessary tovtake care of those who return damaged as well as the families of those who are killed.

I am all too familiar, from history and, notably, from my former career, of what these evil, cowardly bastards are capable of.

MaltaMon, changing the subject (or not, as the case may be) I have a question re: Mr Cheney.
My understanding (and it could be wrong) is that after the US blew the sh*t out of Iraq the contracts (or some of them) to rebuild Iraq were handed out to Haliburton, which a certain Mr Cheney has/had a financial interest, without bothering with the niceties of allowing others to bid for those contracts, which in effect allowed Mr Cheney to literally profit from the loss of US troops.
Is my understanding correct or am I misinterpreting the situation?
If true Mr Bush and Mr Cheney should be shot.

Pocket Kings - fold after flop?
Just played this hand in a online tourney im still in...
I was dealt Pocket Kings (KhKs), so naturally, I reraised preflop about 10 times the BB, to knock out as many players as possible...
The flop was 3h, 9h, Ah, giving myself a flush draw, but that Ace just made me feel a bit weary.
Anyway, to test the waters and make sure no one else had a Ace in their hand, I bet 10 times the BB, everyone folded except for one guy who called.
Turn was 9clovers... river was Ace of whatever...guy turned over A9.
Should I have folded when he called my bet after the flop was dealt? Yes I understand that KK can be beat, but I guess it was hard for me to accept that he might be holding a Ace rather than a 9. A lot of people will play their nines...
I lost about half my chip stack chasing him down to the river. I'm still in the tourney and got myself back up to a healthy stack, but I wanted to know what you guys would do with Pocket KK, AFTER the flop was dealt after my bet was called.
player called 10x BB .. why not think he had an ACE in his hand... with that type of call id put him on AQ, AK range.. If i saw that A on the flop, id probably bet a smaller probe bet..
but thats just me..., him calling on the flop, i would think im beat and probably let the hand go
It was also a low $$ buy-in (since the big money ones don't really happen at this hour of a weekday).
I don't know, from my experience a lot of the lower buy in's draw people who WOULD call all-in when they flop a pair of nines.
Earlier in the same tournament I knocked out a player with A,Q who bet All-in with 9,3.
Your question is a little to vague to be answered properly. Now in your second post you stated it is a tournament so that is good.
We need to know what level the blinds are at.
How much is in everyones stacks
What are your reads on the villian
what stage of the tournament are you in on/near the bubble?
Sounds like you should have folded the turn but the questions above will change the answer you get.
also clovers are called clubs, just an fyi
I'm so used to calling them clovers...I guess because they look like 3-leaf clovers to me. I'll use the more accepted poker term from now on though =p.
The blinds were 50/100, I was chip leader at the table by atleast 60 times the BB.
The guy had about 1475 or something like that.
It was about 35 minutes into the tournament and nearly 20% of the field already eliminated.
re: Poker & Pocket Kings - fold after flop?
you kind of have to assume someone has an ace if more than one person calls a 10x bb raise preflop. A better move may just to go all in on that, you would probably push out A9 or any Ax under maybe a j but then your still like a 70+% favorite to win the hand. Especially in a low buy in next time you may want to risk it.
atleast you didnt lose your whole stack thats something gl in the tourney!
ok first of all, your opponent had no business calling with A9 knowing that he could be dominated. that's his mistake and would only happen in a low buyin tourney. but i also feel you played this hand wrong. first of all, was it really necessary to raise to 10x bb? was the table so loose that a 10xbb raise has been seen as a standard raise? i seriously doubt it, and that's the first mistake you made - you let the pot get too big preflop. this has repurcussions in later streets because you're going to have to bet a higher percentage of your stack to price out your opponent. in this particular case, it doesn't really matter because you where the overwhelming chip leader against a much smaller stack, but if you were against a similar stack or even a mid stack, you would be crippled if you had lost the hand. in terms of the outcome in this hand, yea you got beat and it might have been unavoidable, but your play here was wrong. tournament strategy is all about survival, keep pots small so when you lose, you lose less.
I raised 10BB because I had pocket Kings. I think my bet was effective preflop since nearly the entire table folded (save for those two).
You're also right about calling a 10xBB with A,9 offsuit. I noticed a lot of maniacs play the game of luck in the lower buy in tourneys. I was only there because it was early on a weekday, and there wasn't any of the more premium tourneys available.
Usually the higher buy ins result in more actual "poker".
re: Poker & Pocket Kings - fold after flop?
If i got a couple callers for 10 times the BB and an ace flopped I would normally just give up. The reason is that if they didn't have the sense to fold a weak ace before the flop, they probably won't let it go after the flop, and they may very well have AK. Sometimes I throw a small bet out there and if they fold thats great. If not wait for a better spot to get your chips in.
You "Test the waters" someone calls then in a later post you say u did not believe he had an ace? So why ask the question in the first place if u r not going to accept the answer?
I think that sometimes people get carried away with the fact it is a low level buy in. Just because someone pushes with 93o it does not follow that everyone will do the same.
I also do not think u needed to bet 10 times BB. First, the bet should be in relation to the size of the pot, not the blinds after the flop.
So, if u bet 1/4 of the pot here, u find out.
I would have bet, then once I had one caller I would have shut up shop.
Another option in these games with KK is to push all in. You might get a caller with an ace, but u r a 70% fav unless he has AA, obviously.
re: Poker & Pocket Kings - fold after flop?
I would have checked the river....He is sticking around for a reason. Anytime that Ace pops up with your underpair you have to be able to release that hand. I like the idea you bet on the turn with a draw, but you found out he is still hanging around. Darn Ace's anyway.....
LOL, sorry had to chuckle
He's worried about the ace on the flop and you say shove...GENIUS, especially since his opponent had the ace. Can we say...DONE!
No we cant say that. because we are just getting started. I know what he is worried about, because i can read, and that's what he wrote. secondly, he has 11 outs twice. so that makes him 1.35-1 to hit or 1/2.35 or 43% to end up with the nut flush or a set of Kings both of which will be good. so lets compare that to the pot odds. if he shoves and gets matched thats 1-1 pot odds right there. but after we factor in the money already in the pot, its a little better than that. if they started with a stack of 100 BBs then he would have 90 left so 90+20:90 or 110:90 or 11:9 or 1.2:1. Now that is still a slightly negative EV but lets not forget about folding equity. I'll give you that the ace probably isnt folding but almost everything else is. And there are a lot of hands left in his range that will have called a PF raise. ex. pocket pairs, suited connectors, QJ, KJ, KQ, QT, JT, KT. he is ahead of all of these hands except the pocket pairs that made sets and the aces which is relatively small percentage of the average late position PF raise caller's range. So if he shoves and gets called and he is behind he is almost 50-50 to suck out. but that is the least likely scenario. and its still not even that bad. once you factor in the fact that he will probably take down the pot or get called by a lesser hand like QhJc or pocket JJ he should be shoving all day. I ill be If your thinking is dominated by fear, as his was and yours is, you will miss hidden values like this. there is always something to be afraid of.
as i understand it he called your big pfr with A9o and left him with 475 behind? yup that's a mistake on his part, and since he has so few left the rest would be going in anyway so just put him allin on the flop. folding at that point would have been a mistake on your part
also don't worry too much about being outdrawn because people are calling loosely. just play correct ABC poker against them. If they outdraw, that's poker, but more often than not you'll be paid off
They called the raise.When the ace hit on the flop a check to to see what his bet is.Any bet I would have to put him on ace's and fold. He wouldn't bet with small pairs for fear of the check raise. I THINK I would have folded. Good luck!
Ok so I found myself in the same scenario last night in another tournament. In this case, I did the same raise, and everyone folded. In addition to getting my bet back, I also claimed the pot which was about $2000 chips.
Conclusion? When you play in a tournament with a much larger buy-in, the players are either too tight to call a monster raise, OR they're just not clueless idiots. I placed in the money in last night's tourney (made about 5x my buy in), yet I couldn't place at all in the lower buyin tourneys mainly because in my opinion, people just play too loose.
Happy belated Turkey Day everyone!
re: Poker & Pocket Kings - fold after flop?
well you didnt post anything about what happen bet wise after the flop bet you made but if he called then he was sitten on an A but iof he bet after the turn or river i probably would have folded but if he didnt bet then you should just check to the river
Folding KK is always tough, but if you've raised and an Ace comes on the flop, chances are he's got you beat and you've got very little chance of hitting. In this case, I would of checked on the flop and seen what he did. If he bets, you have to fold. If he checks, put in a feeler bet on the turn and see what happens. If he goes over the top of you, chances are he's trapped you so it's best to fold again.
They say KK is about as good pocket 2's if there's an Ace on the board.
Yeah, KK and AA and I have a bad reputation. . .typically my aces get busted early in the hand, and the kings get trashed on the turn or river. . .sometimes, in the game of poker, you have to lose a hand. It's up to you how you lose that hand. You want to fold, or continue shortening your stack and then lose the hand.
For me the only answer is that you have to feel the situation out completely, make as informed a decision as possible, and the make the choice - check, call, raise, or fold.
I think your initial raise was way too high. No matter what the blinds were, 10 BB was too much. I would have raised 3-4xBB, betted little more than half the pot after the flop, betted half the pot on the turn (because you still have the flush draw) and check-folded on river (since you missed the flush) and risk facing an ace beating your cowboys.
Hmmm good question here.
I think that when they called your raise with the ace on the board rather than reraising would make me think they were weak.(like looking for the flush as well.
Since you were never reraised i would have not folded my kk after the flop.
with pocket kings i like to play a fairley medium size pre-flop raise. especially if i am in late position and there hasnt been action before me. if i see an ace on the flop i will probe a little. i would also figure my opponent would know when i am just making a probing bet. if he raises it up, i fold. not worth the risk. i like to protect my chips at all times.
I dont understand why people are saying you built too much of a pot preflop here.
You have KINGS!
I would love if I could get people to call 10 times the blind raises preflop every time I had kings. My goal is to get as much in the pot as possible when I look down at two kings.
I dont think that was your problem. One problem I see is that you should change your thinking after the flop from betting big blinds... to betting in comparison with the pot.
When I see a probe bet, most likely I'm gonna destroy it with a pot sized raise regardless of my holding, so any bet a quarter pot or less wouldnt work against me... however I'm not going to call a 10 times the blind raise with A9 either.
It would be easier to analyze had you told position etc. With that draw if he checked, I'm taking the free card. If I checked and he bet, it would all depend on what he bet and what my stack was in comparison to the pot. If he's got the ace you've got 9 outs. From there on its a little bit of math to decide how, and if, you will continue with the hand.
re: Poker & Pocket Kings - fold after flop?
First, that's not a bet that you should make preflop unless it's all in. The fact is, unless someone has aces, they probably shouldn't call that, so other than the fact that you played with some donkey that put way too many chips in with a marginal hand, that bet generally just wins you blinds. After that, if they are calling you on the flop, it means they either have a flush or an ace. No other hand would call that.

The best pitching stats are between Roy Halladay and the Philadelphia Phillies versus the Halos. How close are they and which team is better? The Apocalyptic Horsemen Stats are in my daily coverage.
I am alternating a game-day 2012 ERA For The NL East and a 2012 ERA For The MLB 5. See link section below. In each publication, the number after the title will be based on the quantity of outcomes played by the Phillies.
Top Performance Yesterday: Shaun Marcum Worked 7 Three-Hit Innings Against The Cubs At Home
REASONING For The Stats:These numbers are a glimpse over the pitching coach's shoulder, because they warn of difficulty ahead. The rule of thumb is that the bullpen load should be no more than 33.3%, which is a 6-complete average per scheduled outing. That is why going a distance into the game is 6.1 frames or more, which is 70.4%. The added detail of 1 out per contest is 54 innings over the long summer's course. This also shows the mound masters that give the relievers a well deserved night off, but there is a rust factor due to lack of backend chances. If there are any questions, please ask.

LIVERPOOL FC chairman Tom Werner has gone on record to promise investment in the club come January.
The American chief's words come in the wake of watching another inspired performance from Reds superstar striker Luis Suarez, who helped fire Liverpool to a 3-0 win on Saturday – only their third win in the league this season – scoring 2 goals versus Wigan.
Werner hailed Liverpool's number 7, labelling him 'beautiful', and further confirmed that the Uruguayan will not be sold, before insisting FSG's intentions to strengthen when the transfer window reopens in January:
"We made a long-term contract with him [Suarez] in the summer and we are going to see a lot of his play at Liverpool. He's a beautiful player to watch and as a Liverpool fan I hope I'm watching him for many years to come.
"Our intention is to strengthen but actions will speak louder than words. We are playing better and better each week. Obviously, we have made some mistakes in the past but our intention is to deliver, strengthen the squad and move forward.
"We know that January is a challenging time and I don't want to say we've got x or y but hopefully the fans will be pleased with what we do accomplish."
Werner's comments echoed that of manager Brendan Rodgers, who fully expects to see his squad strengthened in the New Year:
"We're looking to do business in the striking department in January," Rodgers told TalkSport.
"The reality is that there was always going to be a bit of movement this season with the club trying to regain some of their money. This season was always going to be difficult.
"We'll look to do something in the January transfer window, though. There's not going to be wholesale changes in terms of players coming in, that's the reality of where the club is at.
"We're looking to grow over the next six months, we'll get some reinforcements in January and that will support the group who have been magnificent for me so far.
"Hopefully in the summer we can build again."

Seven Things to Pray for Your Children
Mar 8, 2013
God invites parents to ask, seek, and knock with specific requests for their children. Here are seven prayers to get you started.
Let No One Despise You for Your Youth
A Vision for the Next Generation
Apr 20, 2008
Old, young, or in-between, you can change the world for Jesus.
Teach Children the Bible Is Not About Them
Jul 1, 2012
When we tie up the story nice and neat, and answer all the questions, we leave no room for mystery. Or discovery. We leave no room for the child. No room for God.
"Sex belongs only in the sanctuary of a marriage covenant between one man, one woman, while they both live."
John Piper, from Is It Sinful to Be Pregnant Before Marriage?

For the next Super Sunday on February 5, we're having an all-ages painting studio along with free gallery admission and tours of our new exhibitions. The studio work will be guided by the bold geometric style of Cuban-American artist Carmen Herrera and led by local artist-instructors Rob Jones, Dan Gerdeman, and Grant Gilsdorf (pictured L to R). Each of the participating artists has an individual aesthetic that's distinctly different from Herrera's minimal, meticulously composed paintings and sculptures, so we asked each to share a recent example of his own work, along with a few words about it and what to expect during their Super Sunday studio. Click their names to see more of their work.
Day job: Art Teacher at Hilliard Davidson High School
Favorite medium: Acrylic paint
Your style: "Funny, Sly, Subversive, Hopeful."
Plans for Super Sunday: "We want to excite people to push and pull paint, to create big works that revolve around movement and gesture. We want people to enjoy the creation of a surface with no preconceptions or concerns. To enjoy the process."
Pictured: Clean and Dirty Jokes, Acrylic on canvas, 24 x 36"
Grant Gilsdorf
Day job: Painting/Photography Teacher at Olentangy Liberty High School
Favorite medium: Acrylic paint
Your style: "I'm a contemporary realistic figurative painter whose work focuses primarily on creating mood and structuring narrative."
Plans for Super Sunday: "I think most people see art as a mysterious and unobtainable language. We are going to help show everyone that not only can they speak the language as well, but they may even be quite beautiful and eloquent with it. We hope to achieve this by providing a kinetic painting experience that allows the participant to engage without fear."

Day job: Elementary Artist-Educator

Champaign man not guilty in weapons case
URBANA — A Champaign County jury Wednesday night acquitted a Champaign man of unlawful use of weapons.
Darta Bishop, 34, whose last known address was in the 400 block of West Maple Street, had been charged with three counts of unlawful use or possession of weapons alleging that on Oct. 5, he had guns in a home in the 500 block of South New Street in Champaign.
Testimony at the trial before Judge Harry Clem was that Champaign police were watching the home in order to search for evidence that its occupant, Phyllis Frazier, 44, was taking financial advantage of a relative. In watching the residence, Champaign police Detective Pat Kelly said he saw Bishop coming and going for several days.
Frazier was subsequently charged with financial exploitation of an elderly person and aggravated identity theft.
Assistant State's Attorney Duke Harris said when police did conduct the search, they found two handguns under a mattress and six long guns on a closet shelf in a room where Bishop had been watching television.
Bishop's attorney, Alfred Ivy, argued that Bishop didn't live in the house. No fingerprints were found on any of the weapons and Harris said DNA taken off two of the guns showed that more than one person had touched them.
Bishop, who is on parole for armed robbery out of Milwaukee, faces an unrelated charge of residential burglary that allegedly happened at an Urbana home in February. He is scheduled to be back in court on that case next month.

Gordon Brown has announced tough new rules on student visas and cut the number of skilled foreign workers allowed into Britain as he acknowledged public concerns over immigration levels.
He argued that attracting talented migrants remained crucial to Britain's prosperity but said it was foolish to ignore the risks and costs of immigration. In his first major speech on the issue for two years, the Prime Minister said it was "lazy elitism" to portray people with worries about immigration as racist.
The planned clampdown on student visas is aimed at bogus colleges offering non EU-nationals an easy route into Britain. Ministers are preparing to raise the minimum level of a course for which visas are granted and to introduce English language tests before they are given out. Mr Brown also raised the prospect of tougher rules on foreign students taking part-time jobs that "would be better filled by young British workers".
The Prime Minister said the range of jobs available to skilled foreign workers would be reduced by tens of thousands. From next year all vacancies for hospital consultants, civil engineers, aircraft engineers and ship's officers will have to be filled from within Britain and the EU, with other engineering posts, skilled chefs and care workers expected to join the list shortly afterwards. But employers and colleges warned of the potential economic impact of limiting skilled workers. The Institution of Civil Engineers said restrictions on engineers could affect major infrastructure projects such as new nuclear power stations.
Five months after the British National Party won two seats in the European Parliament, Mr Brown said: "Immigration is not an issue for fringe parties, nor a taboo subject. It is a question to be dealt with at the heart of our politics, a question about what it means to be British." He pointed to the cultural and economic benefits of immigration but he accepted there were "significant variations" in how it affected different parts of the country. People living in towns with lots of new arrivals would worry about falling wages, fewer jobs and the supply of housing, he said.
But Chris Huhne, the Liberal Democrat home affairs spokesman, said: "Gordon Brown is attempting to shut the stable door long after the horse has bolted. His government's catastrophic mismanagement of the system has undermined this country's liberal attitude towards immigration."

Strange thing is if i go and test the device through the sound control panel - the speakers all work as expected. Driving me nuts - im at the point of buying a new sound card - but im worried that they might not even be compatable with w7 either. I did hear that "if it works with Vista - it will work with Windows 7 " but that is definitely not the case. Have tried installing the driver in compatability mode for both vista and XP - no joy,. Anybody with a possible solution?? ? Many thanks Vic

A Sydney senior surgeon whose comments on sexual harassment helped draw attention to widespread bullying in the profession has warned that it will be difficult to fix the problem.
Vascular surgeon Gabrielle McMullin said "a small group of very powerful men at the top" were responsible for fostering a bullying culture among surgeons and would be "rolling their eyes at the report".
The Australasian College of Surgeons-commissioned report published on Thursday revealed a toxic culture in operating theatres throughout the country, in which bullying was endemic and victims feared reporting it would be "career suicide".
While she praised the report and the college's apology to victims, Dr McMullin feared this group would "remain untouchable" and it would take a strong commitment to overturn the practice of "education through humiliation" and make the profession more welcoming to women and international graduates.
Dr McMullin made headlines in March when she said female surgical trainees could see their careers destroyed by reporting sexual harassment. She had pointed to the case of Caroline Tan, a neurosurgeon who was found to have been assaulted by her supervisor but had failed to find work in the public hospital system.
"Since my original remarks many surgeons have denied there is a problem and others have suggested that in their speciality there is not a problem," she said. "This report clearly shows there is an enormous problem across all specialties and senior surgeons are the primary source."
The report found almost half of the 3500 surgeons and surgical trainees surveyed had experienced some form of bullying, harassment or discrimination.
It said the culture in surgery needed to change, that surgeons had to find better ways of providing feedback to trainees, and for complaints to be better handled so those who were bullied did not feel afraid to come forward
Australian Medical Association president Brian Owler said it would be up to the current generation of surgeons to "break the cycle" of bullying, harassment and discrimination in the profession.
"We need to be the first generation that does not perpetuate this culture of bullying and that we ensure that we look after our colleagues," he said.
St Vincent's Health chief medical officer Victoria Atkinson said the report's findings were a "wake-up call" to the health sector.
She said St Vincent's, which operates 12 hospitals nationwide, would work with the college on fighting bullying.
"Many surgeons are far more concerned about college accountability and the threat to fellowship than a formal warning from a hospital," Dr Atkinson said.
Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation federal secretary Lee Thomas said nurses were also exposed to bullying and were sometimes too scared or embarrassed to come forward.
She welcomed the report as a "first-step in acknowledging the issue of bullying and then moving to a system where nurses, midwives and other health professionals are protected in the workplace"
Some surgeons took to Twitter on Thursday to give their reactions to the report, calling it "shocking beyond belief".

This is shocking beyond belief. Shame on the perpetrators. And those who stood silently by. http://t.co/iRdhvK57TJ— John McGarva (@IamChirurgicus)

First 3 words a surgeon spoke to me when I started work as a surgical house officer: "You stupid woman" That ruled that out as a specialty.— Marie Bismark (@mbismark)

The New Yorker's medical writer and Harvard surgery professor Atul Gawande called the findings "horrific":
Horrific. Aussie report finds female surgeons coerced to give sexual favors (@theage). Am I naive to think: not here? http://t.co/QAoNtDAru4— Atul Gawande (@Atul_Gawande)
