If there is anything better than pirates playing poker, I don't know what it is. Eastern Michigan University just put themselves on the map.
ARRRR Matey! Pirate Poker Night was held in the Utility Gym at the Rec/IM Tuesday night as part of Pirate Week, sponsored by Student Government and Campus Life. No Limit Texas Hold 'Em is the game and two pirates were present, along with 95 other pirate connoisseurs.
Next Saturday, September 17 2005, the San Antonio Poker Club, BarPoker, and the Scottish Rite of San Antonio are hosting a $50 buy-in tournament to raise funds for the Red Cross Katrina relief. All monies raised will be donated and there is no prize other than recognition, which makes it legal under Texas law.

How much is there to love about football season? After it seems like 3 years since games have been on TV, we get preseason games, then college games, then fantasy football drafts, then office pools, then Austin's longhorns beating OSU in a nailbiter, then this great exchange from Mike Ditka and Michael Irvin on Sunday NFL Countdown talking about the Raiders defeat from the Patriots Thursday night:
Ditka: "You're talking about a 30-20 win!"
Irvin: "They're playing the most undisciplined team in the world the Raiders... they should have tore the Raiders a new you know."
Ditka: "They did, 30 points that's good."
Irvin: "No they only beat them by ten!"
Ditka: "They covered the spread in case you bet." (Hits Irvin on the arm)
stranger70127 posted the following questions in response to an old article I wrote on 7-10 split probabilities:
Is there anyone who can help me compute the answer to the following questions?
What is the probability of a PBA bowler bowling a 300? What is the probability of an amateur bowler bowling a 300 on regular lanes? What is the probability of a person sitting at home bowling a 300 in the Yahoo featured game '10-pin bowling'? What is the probability of it happening to each of them (individually) more than once? What is the probability of it happening to each of them (individually) more than once within a month?
What is the the significance and probability of me bowling 7 '300' games in Yahoo '10 pin bowling' over a period of 3210 games within the time frame of ~ a few times before 7/15/2005 to 8/19/2005?
I don't have any good data handy on these questions, but hopefully someone here does!
