I gave up on that show. I set my DVR to record it last season, and for some reason it only did one a week. Isn't the show on like 4 nights in a row?
I am not sure what I did wrong, but it tilted me something awful as I would catch the first show and nothing after that.
The season before was fine though.

I would so do that, if I knew how, lol.
We do have something wireless and my husband can download movies from his comp that we watch on TV , I will have to ask him about that. If I could get my laptop to talk to that thing, it would be really cool.
And thank you for being nice, lol

You can use any VGA cable to plug your laptop to your TV screen (nearly all of them have a vga port). Its the same blue one that goes from a desktop computer to a computer screen (unless you use the white one the I don't know if you can use that one).

Playin a session on a 50"+ screen is the ducksnuts.

PAD is looking great this year; beating HSP on so many levels. I look forward to watching Dwan and Annette this week. Always amusing to watch Dwan donk it out for what to him must be penny stakes. Annette, for all her antics, is a great tournament player, and I hope to see her pull off some amazing moves this week, as I have often seen her do on televised tournaments before.

Not much to say on PLO Cash with THAT lineup... except, ZOMG, it's a dream come true.

So if I just plug my laptop into the TV screen, it will show up there, of course after I change input?
Or do I have to google some instructions....

#11 4th April 2011, 2:14 AM

Yep it should load up when you change input

You may have to do something on your laptop (like fn+f4 or something like that) but I'm pretty sure it should come up on its own.

That is soooo sick, why did I not know about this? lol
Thank you!

#13 4th April 2011, 2:19 AM

no problem

#14 4th April 2011, 3:03 AM

Note that a VGA Cables usually only have ports on HDTV's, so if your TV isn't HD you should get a S-Video Cord (Usually). Also if you want the sound on your TV get a 3.5mm Mini-Stereo Male to Two RCA Male Speaker Cable.

And I will stop derailing this topic. My prediction is Tom Dwan will go all-in with some crazy hand and everyone will be like "what are you thinking." And he will have some I can never fold logic. Only prediction.

#15 4th April 2011, 3:17 AM

Whoot, my TV is Hi Def, I just tried it with the VGA and it works.
FFS I have missed sooooo much.
Thanks again, I can't wait to play on it
Going from my 14 inch screen to a 47 inch is gonna bee cool.
I will probably be able to actually fit 4 screens without overlap.

Would love to watch a PLO cash game. Never seen one before. Online PLO is crazy so it will be fun to watch it live

#19 4th April 2011, 7:13 AM

PLO would be so awesome, something different. Never seen a live one before.

I was looking at this on wiki the other day and was looking for ages to find the PLO match and then realised it was coming this month, duh!. I have been getting into PLO recently so to watch some would be amazing.

YouTube - WSOP 2005 $5000 Pot Limit Omaha...

#27 5th April 2011, 7:50 PM

#28 5th April 2011, 9:18 PM

It is at the Aria now - can't wait to see it. I think they were gonna film the first one last night.

#29 7th April 2011, 12:53 AM

i just watched the first episode of the 'idol' week. It's such an awkward cast. Luckychewy tries to hit on melanie weisner and Brunson and Dwan just look bored.

#30 7th April 2011, 4:29 AM

PLO on PAD ...

for sure just watched first 3 eps. chewy sure do look awkward around girls. am thinking weisner would make an excellent ex wife. is it just me or does dwan give off tons more tells than he used to?

#33 11th April 2011, 4:24 PM

Pretty cool show. Might have to watch the PLO. That should be good.

#34 11th April 2011, 9:16 PM

Glad to see some PLO on tv... Haven't watched PAD for a long time so will give this week a try due to something different...

#35 26th April 2011, 1:48 PM

PLO starts tonight (Andy Bloch joining Ali Nejad in the booth, and they're using a 4 color deck)

sick lineup - hope it turns out good:
