Been gone for a few weeks due to puter problems. I'm not going to go through all I missed in the Nov. thread but just wanted to give a big Gratz to all who finished the month well and had big finishes!

Best of luck to all in Dec!

For being gone so long I lost my silver star on PS - sniff sniff - so I have to work extra hard this month to try and get it back. We'll see how the month goes.

Maybe since I've been gone for awhile I have "beginner's luck" on the tables? Haha - I wish!!!

I was just reminded of how easy the 18 Person 3.40 O8 SNGs are. Damn people have no idea how to play O8 =)

pokershortcuts for PS and I'm experiment with TableNinja FT for FTP along with an AHK script to stack the tables in one quadrant of my screen.

Played two sngs today got a 1st and 5th, didnt play so well but enjoyed it and had people visit halfway through so concentration dropped and messed up on a table although I went with a correct read and got outdrawn I should have spent more time going through my options which made me think I have missed a trick by not bringing some poker books with me since I would have had time to really study them.

Its a shame I shall miss another of debis sng tourneys as it would be a valuble learning tool for me so I wil just say good luck to every one playing. On a tangent I played mostly US players today due to the time difference of playing here and was a different proposition than playing my euro compatriates which I will write about more tomorrow.

Good day all!

Quick Question, Does anyone know how to solve the problem where Stars hand history cuts out about 1/3 of the way though? TY

Sorry I have never had this issue. Is this an emailed HH or the one the client stores?

What email client are you using? A web based one like gmail or something on your PC like Outlook Express or ?? I recall someone describing this issue with a web based client and they had to forward the email to use another email client.

1) 20% rake structure is going to make it very hard for you to be profitable in the long run. The 2.25 sngs are much more worth it even if you are a bit under rolled.

2) Preflop is standard, the c/bet is standard but you could try making it slightly smaller. A smaller bet does the same thing while risking a lot less chips.

Imo your raises are too large for AK in early blinds.

I think raise is fine with the 2 limpers in the pot? also as stated, no need to cbet soo much - your losing money when called, 220-250 does the same thing

Yea - I thought there was just 1 limper so with that would have bet slightly less pre-flop. With 2 the pre-flop raise is standard.

I don't mind check folding on the flop here. i would think the villian should have lots PP's in thier range to limp/call preflop. If he does have a PP here I don't think a cbet wil get them to fold.
