Wow, I'm at 15k hands already for the month. This is definitely going to be a record breaking month for me.

Ended up getting to only down 1.5BIs for the night though =/ Tomorrow's RB depost is going to be a nice one.

Also, this month I will be going for IronMan Silver too, so that will be a nice little addition, getting some more medals than just 15. Volume does amazing things.

 

[WVHillbilly]

Tomorrow's rb won't be nearly as much as it would have been a week ago though.

You need to learn to resuckout better. Like this guy:

Best part is that I had no idea it happened until after my session. I saw his cards and then another table popped in front (I stack), so I just assumed I won. After the session I thought my bottom line looked a light and checked it. Oh well, that shit has to happen sometimes otherwise it'd be rigged.

 

[absoluthamm]

True, although this weeks still has some September in it. Next week's I can already tell is light. It's only at 1 buy-in right now after like 4k hands

 

[cAPSLOCK]

That is one of those zen like one sentence atom bomb things...

If only those who think poker is rigged, or that "donkeys always draw out" or whatever could understand that the very thing they are mad about is the REASON the game is worth playing.

Very true, but then again if they understood it the game wouldn't be worth playing.

's the best way to avoid session tilt ....

's the best way to avoid session tilt ....

Yeah, you're probably right. I used to cascade and rarely saw results, then I got a shiny new 30" monitor and started tiling but it seemed harder to play as many tables with them tiled (likely too much information for my feeble mind to process at one time). Now that I'm stacking things seem even better than when I would cascade AND every action occurs in the same spot on the screen so no real mouse or eye movements are necessary (stacking with TNFT is the nuts btw). Since I've started stacking, playing 16 FR tables seems very natural and unhurried.

Now the real dilemma is what to do with all that left over screen real estate.

Do you have any idea how scary 2560x1600 porn can be?
Some of these girls are much better in standard def!

 

[absoluthamm]

Yup, I have dual 25" monitors

 

[vanquish]

anyone know the best way to convert a bunch of FTPs to actual money? lets assume i dont have any actual $ in my FTP account and only have points.


thanks

 

[WVHillbilly]

Tourney tickets or selling them in the 2p2 marketplace (~3.3 cents each seems to be the going rate).

 

[The Dark Side]

Tourney tickets or selling them in the 2p2 marketplace (~3.3 cents each seems to be the going rate).

How would you sell them? Can they be transferred? Does this affect MGR?

 

[WVHillbilly]

They can't be transferred but the way it works is that you buy stuff people want with your points and have it shipped directly to them. They transfer the $$s to you. Yes it hits your MGR. Without being a black card member though it's the only way to convert points directly to cash.

 

[absoluthamm]

I see on 2p2 that DG sold a bunch on there...


Whoops, was that a suckout? I was pissed that the small blind and MP1 didn't come along, that's the only reason I only called because their stats said that usually call damn near anything on the flop, not this time...

Just starting to stack instead of tile. I guess it will get easier once I get used to it. Whats the best way to take notes on players while stacking? Or do you just mark the hands and write notes at the end of the session?

Hmmm.. yeah taking notes would probably be good!
Actually I find the easiest way to do it is to pull up the replayer and take it there. At least it's not in the way of my stacked tables that way. I'm also using TNFT for things like time banking and I have a hotkey set up to move a table out of the stack if there is something worth noting.

 

[vanquish]

taking notes is so 2008

 

[The Dark Side]

I play at FTP.

Taking notes is easy there. Once you double click the box it pops out.
I slide it to the side and and type my notes when I have a second.

sober girls around me, they be actin like they drunk
