Krux family kruxed by the police. I wonder if what they were smoking helped Al somehow in his poker strategy. Many should already tried to play online under the effect of it, but does it really works? Or makes you laugh so much about a donk play that you cant ever reestablish concentration to the rest of the game? I think its more the second...

weed will make you focus on whatever is in front of you me and my kick boxing trainer both partake in a few smokes before a heavy session of sparring and bag work and yeah it just gives you tunnel vision which is good for poker i guess and yeah laughing at idiots making crazy bets makes for a fun table

they shouldn't have had to do anything its a stupid law based from lies and deceit
btw 40pounds of weed wouldn't cost anybody 150k euro
40pounds is what 640 ounces? or something close to that at todays rate the highest you'd expect to pay for that amount is £6400 anything more than 100 an oz in bulk is insane
and as for the 90 plants we can't even speculate on how much they are worth as we dont know what strain they are or how much they yield or even how old they are

6400$ for 40 POUNDS of weed? maybe 64 000$ lol around here u can swingle maybe 4pounds at that price...average goin for 3-4$ a gram by quantity but if ur selling enough u can get it down 1.50$-2.50$ a gram.....at 2$ a gram for 40 pounds the least ud pay in canada is about 36 320$..if u can get it over there for 6400 everyone would be smuggling drugs

I guess it would depend on what type he had too, solid p/g must be a lot different to green on the p/g. Lucky it was in US, in the land down under that's a bout 8 trillion dollars worth and life in jail, the UK would be a first warning for personal and 3 points for bald tyres.

nah dog my only offence to date i got a 12 month suspended sentence here for just 3.5 Oz of green (would have been 4 but i threw a handful down my neck hard to swallow in whole buds lol) all in 1 bag no little baggies no scales or nothing and the judge told me that if i had between 4 and 5 Oz i would have served a minimum 24 month sentence in big boy prison lol
my main excuse for having so much quantity was because i don't want to be associating with scum bag dealers so i go there once a month pick up and get smashed
lol i can't even get into america now (tried last year for holiday got all the way to lax just to be interrogated for 5 hours and sent back home talk about some serious jet lag)
------------ oh and in the report in my local newspaper the police claimed my weed was worth £1000

suspended sentence - In this case 12 months, if he commits a crime within this period he goes straight to jail, does not pass go and does not collect 200...He will have to spend the remaining time keeping a firm grip of the soap, and I hear in Wales they use flaked soap, harder to pick up!
USA are stupid, as we already know, if you have a record then the US think by that person visiting they will cause a crime wave, so to prevent all these nasty people going there they must apply for a visa, then its OK.

Posted by SuperNoob: and why wont they let u in america?
the 2 reasons they gave me were because of my offence despite this being in lax where the shits pretty much legal that discussion lasted just under an hour
then they had pintouts of my former myspace account claiming i was using the site for drug trafficking (they showed 0 evidence of this) the biggie that lasted 3 hours was because apparently i was "promoting violence towards americans" in these blogs which was crazy because all they showed me where a few blogs of me being critical of the whole 9/11 deal so they sent me packing and my friend was left all on her lonesome to wonder around LA
oh to top it all off when i got back home nobody came to pick me up they all thought i was joking in my txts :|

yeah private accounts at that but they hand printouts of pm's as well it was surreal
the only thing that pissed me off about thew whole situation was they could have told me way before i left my country that i wasn't getting in because i checked with the us embassy before spending a penny on booking the holiday they said i would be fine there would be no problem
so i spent my 2 years savings and bam i got the best holiday ever :|

you don't see a problem with getting a criminal record for enjoying your free time not harming anyone? i'll never be able to get a decent job above minimum wage because of the record and i doubt i would get citizenship in nl or anywhere thats not a third world country now
also i did try moving there a few years ago but your women are too damn crazy, i lasted 4 months lol
