Hey, demodawggy, How can I follow in your footsteps and come live in Canada? I promise to change my poker game style to suit the Canadian poker standards. Also I promise not to cross the borders you were talking about in this thread. If need be, I can promise that I will stay within the borders of your household all the time.

You have Russian donkey players like every other country have. The think is that there are so many peoples of your Country playing poker that it look like you are all donkeys.
But this is just an illusion there are very good Russian poker players and again like any other Country you also have very bad players.
So don't take this thread as a personal offense just take it as a joke.

Is there any indication that I am taking offence here?.... I just want to go live with demodawggy in Canada. Fish some salmon, squeeze some juice out of those maple trunks or whatever he is doing out there...

I can consider to go live with you. But demodawggy is of a Russian origin and you are not. What if nostalgia for Russia hits me and I need somebody's shoulder to weep on. It better be an ex-fellowcountryman's shoulder. So, demodawggy is a priority here. But you'll do for a backup option.

... < Oh Hey...!!! ...It's our ol' 'Behind the Iron Curtain' buddy schmoyster...!!! Long time no see dude...!
... < ...I see everybody is havin' a good ol' time in here without me...!!!! but
... < I've been looking a little deeper into the issue at hand here,...and GUESS WHAT...??? ...it turns out Mr. Schmoyster here is the proprietor of the local seafood deli aptly named...:
Oyster Schmoyster
... < Not so much because it RHYMES.....but because of the questionable content of the oyster shells....! It seems Mr. Schmoyster has just been re-filling 'spent' old 'previously enjoyed' oyster shells with some 'oyster-like' substance gleaned from all the virile single guys in the town seen coming and going from the back door undercover of night...!
... <.....BUT,...let me tell YOU,....that's only a cover,....a ruse,....a deception, projected from the highest levels within the Kremlin...!
... < Let's just SEE what I've uncovered....: ....deep beneath Oyster Schmoyster is a secret cave hide-out and base of operations where Vladimir and his two cronies Boris and Natasha plan and execute their diabolical plan,....as evidenced by this photograph I took via their web cam I hacked earlier today.....!!!
Posted by TheMachineQC: Russians are everywhere. Soon, they will invade Canada, then they will invade the US. Then putin will take over the world and steal all of Quebec's poutine recipes. That would make a lot of sense.
Russians are too good at poker. They know when the RNG is gonna give their 67 off suit 2 pair on the turn so they play it like it's AA. Russians know things us normal mortals don't know.
Good luck trying to beat russians... aint gonna happen!
Sorry but yes you can beat them.
I just played the jackpot freeroll on Full Tilt and i went HU with a Russian who had twice my stack i just trapped him twice and won the hand.
When you have a good hand most of them are very easy to trapped since they don't fold even with a small pair.
I think that the word fold does not exist in Russian.
lol yeah I wasn't being serious, I know there's great Russian players just like in any other countries
Besides, they had some of the best scientists in history so there is brilliant mathematical minds from this country. That's probably why they don't care about being 65-35 dog in a pre flop heads up shove situation, cause they know they have a decent chance of winning. I'd rather have over agressive players than over tight players at my table that's for sure ^^

Oyster Schmoyster
That's not my deli. My business is called Schmuck & Oyster (hence Schmoyster) and our oyster shells are refilled... I mean... our oysters are the most authentic and exquisite oysters in the eastern hemisphere. I will not bother to comment on your conspiracy theory, it's so weird. The only diabolical plan I have is to come live with you in Canada.
